DEREK CHISORA is so confident Dillian Whyte will knock Tyson Fury out on Saturday night that he is willing to bet his house on it.
Wembley will host the Battle of Britain, with Fury’s WBC heavyweight world title on the line.

Fury will put his WBC heavyweight world title and undefeated record on the line
Unsurprisingly the champions is the red hot favourite with the bookies, some offering odds as short as 6-1 ON that Fury will win.
But Chisora, who has fought both men twice, and lost all of them, thinks Whyte will spring one of boxing’s biggest shocks at the weekend.
Speaking on talkSPORT, the 38-year-old said: “I’m willing to put my house on it that Dillian Whyte is gonna knock Tyson Fury out.
“Tyson is my mate, but I know he’s listening and he’s gonna get knocked out.”

Chisora was involved in two barnstormers against Whyte – the first in 2016 losing on a controversial split decision, the second two years later where he was knocked out.
But his losses against Fury were clear as day.
In 2011 Chisora was unanimously outpointed 117-112, 117-112 and 118-111 on the judges’ scorecards.
‘War’ got his chance at redemption two years later – but Fury put on a masterclass in the noble art as Chisora’s corner pulled him out after the tenth round.

Fury was even seen pleading with the referee to stop the fight such was the one-sided nature of it.
But while Chisora is predicting a stunning upset, a supercomputer has a very different take on how the fight will go.
The Sporting Index number-crunching machine reckons Fury will secure the victory in the 26th minute.
That would mean a ninth-round stoppage in front of 94,000 fans at Wembley on Saturday.
Fury has promised to call time on his boxing career this weekend after the Whyte fight – vowing to hang up his gloves and step away from the public spotlight.
The 33-year-old said: “I’m happy to go back to Morecambe and be left alone.
“I’m gonna delete my Instagram, I’m getting away from being a ‘star’.

“I want to be left alone to live my normal little life, pathetic life I live in Morecambe Bay – going to school, taking out the bins, getting a haircut, valeting the car, going out once a week and training every day.
“Win, lose or draw on Saturday night they’ll be no more fights.”
