With Whyte and Chisora due to cross paths again at Thursday’s press conference, the BBBofC have already made their feelings known to both fighters.
Robert Smith, General Secretary of the BBBofC, told Sky Sports: “They are fully aware what we expect already.”
Asked about precautions at the press conference, Smith added: “They are all very aware what we require.”
Chisora was fined £25,000 and handed a suspended two-year ban, which has now expired, after hurling a table at Whyte in front of the watching media.
The Board confirmed that ‘strict action’ will again be taken if either fighter breaks their code of conduct in the coming days.
Chisora’s new manager David Haye has also been on the receiving end of disciplinary action from the BBBoC, who fined him £25,000 for his behaviour and comments ahead of his first fight with Tony Bellew.
