‘You know I’m a fat boy!’ – What Tyson Fury told Dillian Whyte after towering over opponent in title fight weigh in

TYSON FURY and Dillian Whyte snubbed fighting talk and chose to have a chuckle at their own expense for their final face off.

After the pair weighed in, they came nose to nose for the last time until they share the ring on Saturday, in front of over 90,000.

They then began to touch each others pecks and debate who looked the better – or worse.

Fury, 33, says: “You know I’m a fat boy!”

Whyte, 34, then replied: “We’re both fat boys bruv! Maximum respect, come on.”

“I don’t want to fight someone nobody cares about and then go ‘I made this number of defences of the title’.

I want to fight the best guys. I want to fight the best. People say Tyson Fury is the best fighter of all time. Most guys believe that.

“So why would I not want to fight the best fighter of all time again? For me, that’s amazing. Imagine that. I’m easy if I beat the best of all time.”
