Dillian Whyte believes his career inside a boxing ring isn't over despite being knocked out by WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury on Saturday night.

Whyte was knocked to the canvas in the sixth round by a Fury uppercut and while he did rise to his feet, Whyte was in no condition to carry on fighting which forced referee Mark Lyson to bring the fight to a close. 

Speaking to Sky Sports, Whyte still wants to face the best in the heavyweight division despite and sees former WBC champion Deontay Wilder as a potential foe. 

"I still want to fight the best," Whyte said.

"Listen, win, lose or draw on Saturday, I would have a few more fights against the best guys and then retire. I still want to do the same thing. Nothing has changed.

"I don't know what Wilder is doing. I just need to come back and I want to fight everyone I lost to again and try to avenge my losses.

"One hundred per cent [I can win a world title]. Even he [Fury] himself said it, I will be world champion one day, so let's see."
