Fury 'supremely confident' ahead of WBC heavyweight title bout against Whyte

The Hindu  

WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury said he is "supremely confident" of defeating Dillian Whyte when the two Britons meet in April with Fury's title on the line. The undefeated Fury, who beat Deontay Wilder to become WBC champion, will face mandatory challenger Whyte after a deal to fight Ukraine's WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO champion Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight title fell apart. After months of drawn-out negotiations, Fury's co-promoter Frank Warren won the purse bid in January with an offer of $41 million, beating Whyte's promoter Eddie Hearn who was the only other bidder. "We ticked all the boxes and he signed the contract -- at the last minute -- and now he's trying to renegotiate," Warren said.
