It has given the undefeated contender the perfect chance to get inside knowledge from Fury.

Franklin told Lord Ping: “Yes I will ask and have asked Fury about how to beat Whyte. It was pretty much general advice – work your game plan.

“As I continue to spar with him in the coming days he will give me more advice on what to do. I will say this, Fury and I are pretty much alike.

“We love to joke around; we love boxing and we have big personalities.

“Sparring with Fury so far has shown me I can hang with him in the ring.
