Tyson Fury was accused of penny-pinching with Dillian Whyte and told that he would not sell out the stadium

TYSON FURY was accused of being a penny-pincher because he refused to give Dillian Whyte a larger share of his purse.

The Gypsy King refused his sparring partner more than 20% for the mandated Battle of Britain. This was ratified and ratified by WBC.

Whyte, a Brixton banger, initially requested a 40% split. His brother Dean believes that was more than justified given his status as interim WBC Heavyweight champion.

Boxing Social was told by he: "I thought it was a bit unfair to be honest. However, it is a mandatory requirement that it be at least 30% according to their guidelines.

"And it's as WBC interim champion, up to 45 per cent or even up to 55 percent.

"And when you consider that Dillian is a fighter for pay-per view - he does well numbers, sells out The O2 more than a handful of occasions - it would indicate that he has a lot of tickets and that he has a loyal fanbase.

"So, you have to consider all of that. While we understand that there is a lot at stake, Tyson Fury, his team, and others always insist that money is not their main focus. I give my time to charity.

"And here, you want to penny pinch someone else in the sport, boxing, just as yourself who wants to get what their just dues and deserve."

Dean thinks his brother would be stupid to accept the current offer. He wouldn't get properly rewarded for selling this fight.

He said, "Many people say, "Oh, well Dill should accept it because it's for a world title."

"But, you must understand that he would accept it. What he meant to do was push this fight and make the pay-per view numbers as large as possible for the majority of the percentage to Tyson Fury. "What for?"

Dean thinks a stadium matchup is possible for Fury and his sibling's long-awaited dust up.

He stated, "If it is a stadium bout, it is a stadium battle because he's against Dillian Whyte."

"Tyson Fury does not fight anyone, and I don't think he sells more than 5000 tickets. That is not funny."

Fury, a former unified heavyweight champion, plans to fight with Whyte on March 26.

Frank Warren, promoter of iFL TV said to iFL TV that Tyson wanted the fight at the end March.

"As a group, we are open to other possibilities. No matter what happens, he will fight March 26th. That's the goal.

"I don't know where it is."

"We have a date here, but it could be elsewhere. He wants to fight, that is the fact of it."

He said, "It has always been my dream fight at Old Trafford."
