That is likely to take place in November or December in Las Vegas.
But despite most people involved in the sport licking their lips in anticipation, Whyte was less-than-impressed.
Posting a clip to his Instagram story, speaking on Wilder, Whyte said: “This is the heavyweight champion of boxing, biggest coward.
"[He] Don’t want to face his number one challenger. Let’s go bum squad!”

The WBC Silver Middleweight belt holder also gave his own commentary on Saturday night while watching the “powder puff men” Fury against Francesco Pianeta.
The Gypsy King won every single round of their ten-rounder in Northern Ireland - but Whyte said he could knock Fury out inside five rounds.
"Mark my words, I would knock Tyson Fury out in five rounds maximum, trust me.
"This is nonsense. What is this? Two powder puff men pounding each other to deal.
