TYSON FURY is 'getting a little of his own medicine' while Dillian Whyte is 'not playing ball' as the two build up to their fight.
Since the confirmation of his first ever title shot at the world, Whyte has been nearly silent.
WBC mandatory challenger, who was unable to attend the ticket launch press conference, has refused to post any content on social media.
It angered Frank Warren, a promoter of the project, and Fury has faced all kinds of problems - former cruiserweight Johnny Nelson stated.
Nelson, 55, said to Pro Boxing Fans that "Dillian Whyte does a Tyson Fury. He is not playing ball. He is following his own rules and pace.
