Tyson Fury wants to make his fight with Dillian Whyte a family affair.

The Gypsy King has revealed he is trying to get his dad John to fight on the undercard of his all-British heavyweight title clash with the Body Snatcher at Wembley Stadium next month on April 23.

Standing at 6ft 3in tall, Fury Sr had a brief spell as a professional boxer during the 1980s and 90s, finishing his boxing career with a record of 8-4-1 (1 KO).

'Big John', 57, hasn't fought since losing to Steve Garber in June 1995. He suffered his second consecutive loss via knockout.

Despite this, Fury insists that Frank Warren is trying to make it a real possibility.

Fury, 33, told Queensberry Promotions' YouTube channel: "I'm trying to get Big John on the undercard to be honest.

"We're still working on that, Frank is working very hard behind the scenes, it's not been announced but I'm just going to give you a little sneaky preview.

"Big John, we're trying to get him on the undercard, so yeah, don't be surprised."

Asked if Eddie Hearn would be a suitable opponent, he replied: "No, my dad would chin Eddie Hearn in one round, it would be under 30 seconds."

Fury also wants to pit his brother Shane against rival Whyte's brother Dean.

He continued: "We could get those two on the undercard. Not a problem. We'll speak to Frank about that."

Fury's younger brother Tommy Fury is also expected to be in action against an opponent to be announced.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "In this game, there is levels to it - that's just the top and bottom of it in boxing - and Dillian Whyte just isn't at Tyson's level.

"This will be one of Tyson's easiest fights, because you go from Deontay Wilder who can put your lights out in one second with one punch and then you're going over to Dillian Whyte who has not always looked the best, not always been up there.

"He's taken a while to get this title shot, he's got a few miles on the clock himself, he's had a few bad knock-outs - I don't see him posing any threat.

"It's heavyweight boxing, anything can happen, but as far as him being the best and ruling the division, Tyson is that man and will do for however long he wants to."
