TOMMY FURY thinks Dillian Whyte is “just a heavyweight who can punch” and offers nothing his brother has not conquered before.
Tyson will make his UK homecoming four years in the making against WBC mandatory challenger Whyte this Saturday.
And featuring on the potentially record-breaking 94,000-plus Wembley bill is younger brother Tommy.
The 2019 Love Island star trained alongside Tyson for the respected returns – and he did not lose sleep over the threat Whyte brings.
Tommy, 22, told SunSport: “For me, this fight is a nice homecoming for Tyson, I don’t see it going past six rounds.
“I feel like Tyson is just a cut above this man, Dillian Whyte is no Deontay Wilder in my book, he’s going to try and he’s going to come and give it his best shot.

“But I just don’t think his best shot is good enough. Especially if Tyson comes into this fight how he’s been doing it in the gym, Dillian Whyte hasn’t got a prayer.”
Fury, 33, faces his first British opponent since 2014 when he stopped Derek Chisora, 38, in ten rounds of their rematch.
But that could have changed last year following talks to fight Anthony Joshua, 32, in Saudi Arabia.
Instead, a US arbitrator ruled that Fury owed Wilder, 36, a trilogy fight, which the American lost in 11 epic rounds last October.

And after Joshua was beaten by Oleksadr Usyk, 35, setting up a rematch this summer, it leaves the would-be Battle of Britain up in the air.
Tommy claimed AJ – who beat Whyte in 2015 – would provide his brother a greater challenge than what is to come this Saturday.
He said: “I think Joshua would present a bigger challenge, because I think Joshua’s more skilful than Whyte, I think he’s faster than Whyte.
“Whyte is just a heavyweight who can punch. If you ask me, Whyte hasn’t got quick feet, he’s not overly quick himself, he doesn’t really move his head a lot.
“Whyte is what he is and on this night, Whyte is just an opponent and I think he’s tailor-made for Tyson.”
