WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury will defend his title against mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte in front of his home crowd at Wembley Stadium in London on April 23.

The main event will stream on ESPN+ starting at 2 p.m. ET with a one-time pay-per-view price of $70, or you can order it directly through your cable provider. The undercard will be available to watch for ESPN+ subscribers without the PPV fee at 1 p.m. ET.

The undefeated Fury is considered the world’s top heavyweight fighter; he last won an October 2021 match against Deontay Wilder with an 11th-round knockout, completing a trilogy of fights with what’s considered to be one of the best heavyweight bouts of all time. Whyte enters the title fight with an impressive record of 28-2; he avenged a loss to Alexander Povetkin in his last fight in March 2021.

The winner of this heavyweight title fight will likely go on to fight the winner of the rematch between Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk. Usyk upset Joshua to claim the WBA, IBF, and WBO heavyweight titles in September 2021, and both fighters have agreed to a rematch expected to happen later this year.
