Whyte and Chisora will fight on the undercard when Anthony Joshua fights Eric Molina in Manchester on December 10.

"After a fairly mild press conference, Dillian and Dereck made their way to Sky Sports HQ to film The Gloves Are Off," said promoter Eddie Hearn.
Dillian Whyte and Dereck Chisora will fight on the Anthony Joshua undercard
"We were 22 minutes into an entertaining exchange when tempers flared and the pair had to be separated by security.
"We decided to call off filming and let the fighters calm down and return to camp.
"The show will still be aired on Sky Sports in the build-up to December 10."
But Anthony Joshua's fight will be the centrepiece of the night with a potential belt unification fight against Wladimir Klitschko his prize if he remains unbeaten.
Hearn is keen for the two heavyweights to face off in March and is already discussing possible venues, with both Wembley and the Principality Stadium in Cardiff mooted.
