WBC champion Tyson Fury and challenger Dillian Whyte paid respect to each other, and even shared a handshake, as they met for the first time since their heavyweight bout was announced.

They will fight at Wembley Stadium in front of 96,000 fans on Sunday morning.

Fury has promised to fight Joseph Parker if Dillian Whyte was to pull out of their clash after revealing the New Zealand heavyweight has been named as the standby fighter.

The fight program for Fury vs Whyte will start at 6am Sunday.
