Dillian Whyte is putting the final preparations on his heavyweight showdown with Ebenezer Tetteh on Sunday evening, with hopes of working his way back to a world title shot.

The 36-year-old Briton kicked off his boxing career with a points victory over Michael Matuszewski way back in 2011, going on to embark on a 16-fight unbeaten streak before suffering his first professional loss to Anthony Joshua four years later. Fast forward to 2024, and Whyte holds a record of 30-3 and is ready to prove himself on the world stage with hopes of clinching divisional glory in the form of a title.

While the 'Villain' won interim WBC gold by beating Alexander Povetkin in a 2021 rematch, he was unfortunately unable to unify his belt the following year when he faced Tyson Fury at Wembley, losing via a sixth-round TKO. Whyte bounced back to winning ways with a majority decision win over Jermaine Franklin just months later, but found his career put on pause while her was investigated over a positive drugs test in August 2023 in the lead-up to a rematch with Joshua.

An investigation found the positive test to be as a result of a contaminated supplement, and Whyte has since been cleared to resume in the world of pugilism. He returned to the ring in March 2024, besting Christian Hammer in just three rounds after 16 months of inactivity.

And Whyte is set to face off against 23-1 Tetteh when he fights for the second time this year come Sunday evening. Also 36, the Ghanaian has enjoyed a marvellous professional boxing career since making his debut back in April 2012, having his hand raised over promision talents like Haruna Osumanu, Boniface Kabore, and Maxwell Amponsah.

His only loss came at the hands of current IBF champion Daniel Dubois in September 2019, missing out on the Commonwealth and WBO International heavyweight titles despite his best efforts.

Quotes corner

Dillian Whyte: "He's got a good ranking, got a good record - he's only lost to Dubois but Dubois beat AJ in five rounds. So if you put it into perspective, he's doing alright. He's had a couple of wins since then, which means he's serious, and he wants to get back to winning ways. And he knows if he beats me, his career is changing - he goes from making hundreds to millions. It's a dangerous fight, so I've very motivated. I'm looking forward to the fight."

Ebenezer Tetteh: "I'm watching Dillian Whyte, he's a good fighter. I'm also a good fighter. I'd like everyone here to know that I'm here to fight, and I'm not going to roll over."
