      Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte fight purse: How much are Fury and Whyte getting paid for Wembley bout?

      by

      TYSON FURY and Dillian Whyte are set for a huge Wembley battle this weekend with the WBC heavyweight title up for grabs. The Gypsy King hasn’t been in the ring since an 11th-round TKO over Deontay Wilder last October.
      Credit: Getty
      And Dillian Whyte hasn’t boxed in the year since his avenged KO victory against Alexander Povetkin in Gibraltar.
      Both men will now clash in a money-spinning duel which will see the pair earn millions to fight in front of 90,000 at Wembley Stadium.
      The fight is expected to do some serious business both at the gate and on pay-per-view.
      Fury and Whyte have gone back and forth over money throughout the build-up, and you can expect more of that as the fight gets closer.
      Exclusive radio coverage is available on talkSPORT with coverage starting at 7.30pm.

      So Fury’s official purse for the fight, before a potential bonus, is £22m.
      Fury will also earn cash from ticket sales and pay-per-view revenue, with the fight set to be shown on BT Sport Box Office.
      All in all, the WBC champ could earn over £35million.

      Whyte’s purse will be be bumped up to £8.6m if he wins the fight, but there is no pay-per-view incentive for the Body Snatcher.
      The 33-year-old has yet to feature in any of the pre-fight build up and didn’t show up at the press conference for the fight last month.

      by

      JURGEN KLOPP has let rip at the Premier League and BT Sport over the scheduling of Liverpool’s trip to Newcastle.The Reds boss is angry that his team have a 12.45pm away game on April 30 which would come, potentially, after a Champions League semi-final first-leg clash on Wednesday, April 27.

      Klopp, whose team lead Benfica 3-1 ahead of tomorrow’s quarter-final second leg, said: “It is not okay. If we play a Champions semi-final, you would not find another league in the world and another broadcaster that would put one team in the semi-final with a 12.30pm start.
      “What? Throw them a little stick between the legs? What are you doing? Why are you doing that? It is unbelievable.
      “We play Benfica and the only game I am concerned about is Benfica. And we play Saturday against [Manchester] City because of the success we had.
      “It would have been Aston VIlla. Then we play Manchester United. Then we play Everton. Then if we get through Benfica it is the semi-final and then BT Sport and the Premier League thought they would give us Newcastle away 12.45.

      Klopp this season has moaned about fixtures lists, the lack of five subs in the Premier League and the scheduling of the FA Cup semi-final due to the lack of direct trains from the north-west
      The Reds boss, though, insists the quarter-final is not over.
      He said: “We are still in three competitions and you saw how good City are. You play Benfica and you think we are thinking about winning the Champions League? We are not.

      Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte fight purse: How much are Fury and Whyte getting paid for Wembley fight?

      by

      TYSON FURY and Dillian Whyte are set for a huge Wembley battle later this month with the WBC heavyweight title up for grabs. The Gypsy King hasn’t been in the ring since an 11th-round TKO over Deontay Wilder last October.
      Credit: Getty
      And Dillian Whyte hasn’t boxed in the year since his avenged KO victory against Alexander Povetkin in Gibraltar.
      Both men will now clash in a money-spinning duel which will see the pair earn millions to fight in front of 90,000 at Wembley Stadium.
      The fight is expected to do some serious business both at the gate and on pay-per-view.
      Fury and Whyte have gone back and forth over money throughout the build-up, and you can expect more of that as the fight gets closer.

      Per the WBC’s rules, 90 per cent of that fee goes to the champion, in this case Fury, with the remaining 20 per cent going to the challenger – Whyte.
      But for this bid, 10 per cent (£3.1m) was held back for the winner. with the remaining money split 80-20 in favour of the Gyspy King.
      So Fury’s official purse for the fight, before a potential bonus, is £22m.
      Fury will also earn cash from ticket sales and pay-per-view revenue, with the fight set to be shown on BT Sport Box Office.
      All in all, the WBC champ could earn over £35million.

      Whyte’s purse will be be bumped up to £8.6m if he wins the fight, but there is no pay-per-view incentive for the Body Snatcher.
      The 33-year-old has yet to feature in any of the pre-fight build up and didn’t show up at the press conference for the fight last month.

Fury vs Dillian Whyte: Date, venue and TV info as fight confirmed
      But in the documentary Fury still describes his preparation as the best ever, and it translated into one of the all-time greatest heavyweight clashes.
      John was fearful his son would not be ready to face Wilder after suffering from Covid twice and having to sleep in the hospital as he waited for his daughter to get better.
      He even described the decision to take the third fight as “suicide”, saying Fury could not even complete a three-mile run.
      But Fury did win and in style, picking himself up off the canvas twice before delivering the knock-out blow in the 11th round.

      Barney-Smith wins
      Final round now.
      RBS stalks his prey all over the ring and goes through his full range of shots but cannot get the stoppage.
      Martinez is a great debut test for Sugar Boy who should get a 40-36 shut-out from the scoring ref.
      And he does.
      Barney-Smith vs Martinez – R3
      Martinez is knocked into the ropes with a booming bodyshot.
      Then he revisits the ropes from a straight-left to the skull.
      But the underdog still refuses to hit the deck.
      RBS close to his first knockdown there but he is facing a touch customer on his pro bow.
      Barney-Smith vs Martinez – R2

      Barney-Smith vs Martinez – R1
      RBS lands a couple of heavy left hands but also takes a couple of rights to officially welcome him to the pro code.

      Ben Davison is now in his corner too.
      Noakes wins KO – R4
      Noakes floors his man and Finiello refuses to rise.
      Three slashing hooks to the body lowered the Italian’s guard.
      So Noakes showed off his skill, power and IQ, with a ruthless uppercut that scythed up and flattened out his foe.
      Noakes vs Finiello – R3
      Noakes enjoys a bit more composure in his hunt for the Italian.
      But the southpaw remains an elusive target.
      Noakes has still not been hurt but he has also failed to land anything serious.
      Closer round shared here.
      Noakes vs Finiello – R2
      Finiello is dropped but it is rightly ruled a slip by the referee.
      Noakes is finding the southpaw tricky.

      Vincenzo Finiello has a hard job trying to stop the violent 24-year-old.
      Noakes lands a left uppercut that appears to lift the Italian off his feet but he is not hurt.
      Noakes banks the opener by spending every second on the march and landing a couple of digs.
      McCann wins UD
      All three ringside judges call it: 79-73 to the Maidstone prospect.
      The Brit has just come back from injury so deserves a tune-up win like that.
      And our high expectations might be weighing a bit heavy for now.
      12-0 now for Dennis ‘The Menace’.
      McCann vs Tondo – R8
      Final round now and the tough pair touch gloves as a mark of respect.
      Tondo scores with a combination but McCann is not hurt.
      McCann rifles straight shots back to swing the round back in his favour.
      And the bell goes to end the action. Expect a unanimous decision for McCann but no landslide.
      McCann vs Tondo – R7
      Tondo stumbles off balance and McCann tries to pounce as he bounces off the ropes.
      But the African is tremendously tough and keeps on throwing.
      A McCann right hook stings Tondo and he stumbles again but refuses to fold.
      Tondo looks close to collapse, mouthguard dangling from his bloodied mouth. Another thrilling rounds ends.
      McCann vs Tondo – R6
      McCanbn’s defence improves but Tondo keeps harrassing him and landing.
      McCann hurts him though ithe final few seconds and Tondo wobbles but does not fall.
      A fizzing end to the stanza as both pocket rockets fire off a Hail Mary shots looking for a last-gasp KO.
      McCann vs Tondo – R5
      Tondo shoud nick this round with the judges.
      The flyweight underdog has clippde the bantamweight world title prospect with half-a-dozen flush shots.
      McCann needs to step-it up quickly to avoid anything embarrassing like a shock draw on the cards.
      McCann vs Tondo – R4
      The two southpaw’s are still going at it, McCann looking for a highlight reel KO, while Tondon wants to catch him with anything.
      McCann not putting the combinations together to finish this early.
      Tondo has not won a round but a decision win for McCann will not strike fear into his domestic rivals.
      McCann vs Tondo – R3
      Tondo enjoys some success at the start of the third, tagging backtracking McCann a couple of times.
      But the Englishman regains his cool and his control of the bout.
      McCann ends the stanza peppering Tondo with shots but the Tanzania tough-guy will not fold.
      McCann vs Tondo – R2
      McCann throws a haymaker and loses his balances, almost falls over but Tondo fails to pounce.
      Tondo gets clipped and covers up while McCann unloads a flurry on his guard.
      Not enough jabbing or patience from the Englishman, everything a bit rushed so far. But two McCann rounds in the bank.
      McCann vs Tondo – R1
      Dennis ‘The Menace’ McCann takes on Charles Tondo in the bantamweight division now.
      McCann is one of Frank Warren’s hotest prospects with a long southpaw stance and wicked punches.
      Tondo is usually a flyweight so this contest should not ask the Englishman too many questions.
      McCann stalks his prey and aims left-handed power punches at him but Tondo survives the opener.
      Chamberlain wins – R6
