However, the fight got scuppered as Whyte was forced to withdraw after suffering a severe finger injury during training.
But to the delight of boxing fans, Whyte's medical team has given him the all-clear to get back in the ring and continue what he hopes can be a pathway to the top.
And the British icon will be determined to build on his most recent seventh-round stoppage demolition over Ebenezer Tetteh last December.
Whyte, 37, has been linked to fight against several superstars, including British boxing hero and bitter rival Anthony Joshua.
AJ is unlikely to be in the other corner for his next bout, even though Whyte admitted that Joshua would be a 'perfect opponent', but this doesn't mean that whoever he fights next won't be just as good.

Speaking to talkSPORT in March, the British star said: "I was training as usual and there was a guy next to me in the gym and he dropped his weights and it rolled down.
"As I put my weight down, I ended up catching his finger between his dumbell and my dumbell.
"I still wanted to fight so I didn't tell my team, I had a few days off with a chest infection.
"But it cut right to the bone although I just thought I could get stitches and put it back in a glove again.
"It's cut down the first joint so it's hard for me to bend it and I can't clench my first properly."

Liverpool get Florian Wirtz hint as Luis Diaz contract decision made

Liverpool continue their pursuit of Florian Wirtz but the German is set to cost huge sums whilst a decision is also made on the future of Luis Diaz with his contract winding down Liverpool continue to be the most active of the top clubs in this summer's transfer window as they look to build on their champion squad. Off the back of Premier League success they've already signed Jeremie Frimpong. The full-back has come in from Bayer Leverkusen and will fill the void left by Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Reds now want to add his former team-mate Florian Wirtz, but it will take a British record fee to get him to Anfield. ‌ Liverpool and Arne Slot want to add more firepower to their frontline but it would take more than £120million to land Wirtz. Other attackers have also been linked as the Reds look to make up for their quiet period 12 months ago. ‌ More defensive additions are also expected and Slot admitted at the end of the season that the club would look to improve their squad where the opportunities arose and they continue to attack the market. Here's the latest news from Anfield. Diaz stance clear Liverpool have no intention of selling Luis Diaz this summer. The 28-year-old has just two years left on his current contract and he has been linked with moves away from Anfield. Saudi Pro League sides Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal have both been linked with him as well as Spanish giants Barcelona. But Liverpool maintain they have had no contact about his availability. However there are also no plans to open contract talks yet with Diaz, which may be fuelling the exit talk. He remains an important figure for Arne Slot and scored 17 goals last season in all competitions, but new additions to the frontline could see the landscape change for several players. Wirtz saga 'not bothering' player Julian Nagelsmann insists that Wirtz was fine to play for Germany in their Nations League clash with Portugal despite ongoing talk over his future. ‌ He insists negotiations over a blockbuster switch to Liverpool aren't distracting the playmaker. The Reds have so far seen two bids rejected by the Bundesliga outfit, who value Wirtz at a staggering £126m. Nagelsmann said: "Flo will play [against Portugal]. I don't sense any fear of injury or anything with him. He's a competitor who wants to play and be successful with us. I didn't notice that the situation was bothering him. I think it's perfectly normal for every player, coach, whatever, to have one or two thoughts when a transfer is imminent. I think that's part of it." ‌ Reds confident on Kerkez Liverpool are increasingly confident of signing Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, according to Sky Sports. The 21-year-old will be allowed to leave for £40m and personal terms aren't expected to be an issue. Manchester City were also keen on the Hungary international but have shifted their focus to Wolves defender Rayan Ait-Nouri, which has freed the Reds to go after the Cherries star. Bournemouth have already lost one defender this summer after Dean Huijsen joined Real Madrid for £50m but are poised to lose another of their key men following a stellar season.

Paul Scholes slammed for 'worst bit of punditry ever' after 'outrageous' comment

Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo has enjoyed a superb season for the Blues as he helped them finish in the top four - but pundit Paul Scholes was not impressed with his performances Paul Scholes has been slammed by fans for "one of the worst bits of punditry ever" after claiming Chelsea star Moises Caicedo"didn't contribute" to their season. The midfielder was an ever-present for Enzo Maresca 's side in the Premier League, playing all 38 games and impressing many with his battling performances. Caicedo managed the most passes, most passes completed, most touches, most possessions won and most tackles of any midfielder in the top flight and was a big part of Chelsea qualifying for the Champions League. ‌ But Scholes left fans baffled by suggesting Caicedo "didn't create or control a lot of games" while also questioning his "quality". ‌ Speaking on the Overlap Fan Debate, he said: "I think a lot of people talk about Caicedo. 'He's played 38 games'. Brilliant, what an achievement. "But was there much quality? Did he create a lot? Did he control a lot of games for Chelsea? I don't remember that. I think there's an era now, with midfielders especially, where you can go through seasons and games without really contributing." Scholes' comments have been blasted by fans on social media, with one calling his remarks "absolutely outrageous". "This is genuinely one of the worst bits of punditry I've ever seen," the post read. "And if Paul Scholes has said this he quite simply doesn't watch much football. Saying Caicedo is 'not contributing much' is absolutely outrageous." Another took aim at his "shocking" view and claimed it showed he hadn't watched much of Chelsea play this season. "Scholes' point about midfielders as a whole is valid but his take on Caicedo specifically here is shocking," the fan wrote. "He's been class this season. Scholes should know better on Caicedo this season. I don't think he's watched enough Chelsea, simple as that." ‌ "Paul Scholes is the worst pundit by a mile," another said. "You can't watch Chelsea's games, and do even a 30-second stat check, and think Moises Caicedo that was a star for Brighton, and now Chelsea doesn't "contribute a lot". Caicedo joined Chelsea for a British club record deal of £115million from Brighton in 2023 and a solid first season as the club finished sixth under Mauricio Pochettino - but was much more improved after working with Maresca in 2024-25. ‌ He started his career Independiente del Valle in his native Ecuador before sealing a move to the Seagulls in 2021. Caicedo only played one full season at the Amex before Chelsea decided to splash the cash on him. Caicedo rounded off his superb season by scoring for Chelsea in their UEFA Conference League final win over Real Betis, netting the final goal in stoppage time of their 4-1 triumph.

Chelsea complete signing of Liam Delap from Ipswich

An agreement was reached between the clubs last week for the England under-21 international, who becomes the Blues' first summer signing and can join immediately due to FIFA's 10-day June transfer window. That will enable him to take part in the upcoming Club World Cup in the United States, though if he travels with the team it will means he will miss the European Under-21 Championship in Slovakia. It's official. ✍️ — Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC) June 4, 2025 The 22-year-old said on the club's official website: 'I understand the stature of this club and can see the trajectory it is on with these players and the head coach. 'It's going to be an incredible place for me to develop and I hope to achieve amazing things here and help the club win more trophies.' Chelsea reportedly fended off interest from Manchester United, with the lack of European football next season for the Old Trafford side understood to be a factor in the player's decision to pick west London. Enzo Maresca's side will play in the Champions League after finishing fourth in his first season in charge, the first time the club has qualified for Europe's top competition since 2022. Delap's signing means the pair will be reunited after working together with Manchester City's under-23 team while Maresca was in charge during the 2020/21 season, and latterly with the senior squad when the Italian was assistant to Pep Guardiola. A post shared by Chelsea FC (@chelseafc) Delap made only six first-team appearances for City, scoring once, before loan spells with Stoke, Preston and Hull. Despite Ipswich's relegation from the Premier League, which made his release clause active, he adapted quickly to the top flight by scoring 12 times in his first full season in the division – comfortably his best goal return – having spent most of his senior career in the Championship. Chelsea have been stretched thin in attack this season, with injuries to Nicolas Jackson and Marc Guiu leaving the team without a fit striker for periods of the campaign. Of those two, only Jackson has scored in the Premier League and the need for credible competition and support for the Senegal international has long been apparent.
