Tyson Fury & Deontay Wilder Face Off at Presser for Fury-Wilder 3

Fury-Wilder3

Two heavyweight kings are set for a third world title showdown as undefeated WBC world champion Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury puts his title on the line against former longtime heavyweight champion Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder Saturday, July 24 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. 

The two fighters met for a press conference today to promote the rematch. Current champ Tyson Fury told the press “I’m excited to once again be fighting in Las Vegas, the home of The Gypsy King. For the last 18 months, I’ve been living rent free in Wilder’s head. He got smashed to pieces in our last fight, and for some reason, he wants it again. Let’s go. The Big Dosser is getting knocked spark out.”

Wilder said, “Nothing has changed. It’s still one face, one name, one champion – Deontay Wilder. I’m in the best shape of my life. July 24, I’m going to show the people why I’m still the baddest man on the planet.”

Their December 2018 draw — with Fury rising off the deck in the climactic 12th round — elevated both men to the forefront of the boxing world. Fury knocked out Wilder in the seventh round of their one-sided February 2020 rematch; however, Wilder wanted an immediate third crack at his 6’9, 270-pound adversary.

If there was any doubt that bad blood exists between the once cordial competitors, that was erased at the conclusion of the presser when they face off. See it below.  

Fury-Wilder 3 is set for July 24th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
