Dillian Whyte has reportedly cancelled his fight against Joe Joyce due to a finger injury. The two boxers were due to go head-to-head at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester on Saturday, April 5.
Whyte and Joyce were supposed to headline a bill that included a fight between ex-cruiserweight world champion Lawrence Okolie facing Richard Riakporhe. But Whyte’s finger problem means he will be unable to take to the ring. Joyce is still set to fight on the day but will now need to find a new opponent.
