Dillian Whyte has been campaigning heavily for a title shot against Tyson Fury. After the latter has accused Whyte of backstabbing him with his mean tweets, Dillian was quick to fire back.

Tyson Fury shared the screenshot of a message that he’d sent to Whyte last year following the latter’s win over Mariusz Wach. Fury had just seen Whyte’s interview and decided to give ‘The Body Snatcher’ some words of encouragement. He also wished him the best of luck for the year 2020.

However, Fury felt that his generosity fell on deaf ears. He even reminded Whyte of the instance when he was banned in 2012 and Fury took him in his camp.

“This is how people treat you when your nice to them!! And by the way when he was out on a ban years ago I kept him going with bringing him in to my camps sparing and paying him and looking after him like egg in a cake & this is how I’m repaid with BS tweets,” Fury wrote on Twitter.
