Dillian Whyte has slammed the referee at Saturday's heavyweight title fight for supposedly letting his opponent Tyson Fury get away with "pushing" him. The British boxer, 34, lost to fellow Brit, Fury, in their fight for the world heavyweight title. Tyson retained his WBC heavyweight title after knocking Dillian out in the sixth round. Now, Whyte is claiming Fury, 33, illegally pushed him and he believes he should have been given more time to recover following Saturday's devastating right uppercut, which Whyte says was followed by a shove. Speaking to Sky Sports on Monday, Whyte said Fury asked the referee, Mark Lyson, to end the fight from the corner. Check out what he had to say here: [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/SkySportsBoxing/status/1518577677149655041]] Whyte said: “When the uppercut landed I was buzzed, but I was trying to regather my senses and he proper full-on pushed me and I fell over and hit my head on the canvas, which is illegal. “This isn’t wrestling, this is boxing. But as usual, they let Fury do what he wants and get away with it. I should have been allowed extra time to recover and carry on fighting.” [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/BTSportBoxing/status/1517983347649261573]] He continued: “He pushed me and then he said to the referee, ‘don’t let the fight carry on’. The referee isn’t doing his job. Okay I got caught, no doubt. A good shot. I went for the left uppercut, he went for the right uppercut and he’s a bit taller than me, so obviously he landed his at range and I was hurt. “I didn’t go straight down, I was hurt and trying to get my senses together, then he full on two-handed pushed me. I fell over and hit my head. A terrible job from the referee but it is what it is.” “I should have had time to recover, I had time to go back to my corner,” Whyte added. “Tyson Fury gets away with a lot of things.” He then went on to share his desire for another bout with Fury sometime in the future, telling Sky Sports: “I hope he doesn’t retire because I want another go.” <h6>Featured image credit: REUTERS / Alamy</h6>
