And Tyson might not be the only Fury on the card with the 33-year-old looking to get dad John and potentially brother Shane involved.

Fury told Queensberry Promotions: “I’m trying to get John on the undercard, to be honest.

“We’re still working on that. Frank [Warren] is working very hard behind the scenes, it’s not been announced but I’m just going to give you a little sneaky preview.

“Big John, trying to get him on the undercard, so yeah. Don’t be surprised.”

On Big John potentially taking on Matchroom chief Eddie Hearn, Fury reckons his dad drops Hearn inside 30 seconds.

He continued: “No. My dad would chin Eddie Hearn in one round, it wouldn’t be 30 seconds.”

Fury also said it would ‘not be a problem’ to arrange his brother Shane taking on rival Whyte’s brother Dean.

The pair have been going back and forth for a number of years, and April 23 could be the night they finally get inside the ring.

Fury said: “We could get those two on the undercard, not a problem. We’ll speak to Frank about that.”

The Gypsy King is set to hoover up 80 per cent of the purse with Whyte getting his biggest professional pay day.

Whyte could see his winnings rise to over £8million should he win his first world title fight.
