Tyson Fury has been ordered to defend his heavyweight title against British rival Dillian Whyte.

The World Boxing Council has named Whyte as Fury's mandatory challenger and the two parties have 30 days to agree a deal.

Fury retained his title with an 11th-round stoppage of Deontay Wilder in their third fight on 9 October.

Fury-Whyte is likely to take place in February or March next year, with Cardiff or Manchester potential venues.
