Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder 3

[Mark TKO]

Wilder doesn't look or sound confident at all to me.

Could fold completely if he has a bad first round again.

Fury tied him in knots verbally at the presser, Wilder just sat there clueless while Fury dished out abuse

Was heating up nicely then Bob Arum wouldn't allow a face to face.

Whyte lined up for Fury vs Wilder winner

Dillian Whyte has been confirmed as a challenger for the winner of Tyson Fury's WBC heavyweight title fight against Deontay Wilder this weekend.

Fury defends his WBC belt in a trilogy clash with Wilder in Las Vegas, with Whyte lined up to challenge the victorious champion after the governing body confirmed a long-awaited title shot.

The WBC has stated that Fury or Wilder could target an undisputed world title fight, if they emerge with the WBC belt.

But Oleksandr Usyk's expected rematch with Anthony Joshua should mean that Whyte receives a WBC title fight, if he preserves his status as WBC interim champion.

A WBC statement read: "The WBC Board of Governors has reviewed the recent history in the Heavyweight Division.

"Considering the long inactivity in the division due to the pandemic, ongoing legal processes, and Covid-19 infections, the WBC has ruled that the winner of this fight will have 30 days to secure a contract to unify the Heavyweight Division against WBO-IBF-WBA champion Oleksandr Usyk in search of an undisputed champion in the division.

"If no unification bout is secured within that time, the winner of Fury v. Wilder 3 must then fight next against the then reigning WBC Interim Heavyweight Champion."

Who's more likely to fight Whyte after a win... Fury or Wilder?

I'd say Wilder. Fury's too unstable with his actions and his career. He's liable to just retire and go into either acting or wrestling. You also never know about his emotional state. For that alone, I think a Wilder victory would be better for the division, short-term. It would keep things moving.... titles being united... etc.

Either way... I'm looking forward to Saturday night.

Everyones seriously overlooking Otto Wallin here, i think Wallin is well capable of beating Dillian Whyte, this division has recently been turned on its head so nothing would surprise me

I'm picking Wilder by quick KO.

"Considering the long inactivity in the division due to the pandemic, ongoing legal processes, and Covid-19 infections, and the chronic lack of sanctioning fees being paid to the WBC over the last year and a half the WBC has ruled that the winner of this fight will have 30 days to secure a contract to unify the Heavyweight Division against WBO-IBF-WBA champion Oleksandr Usyk in search of an undisputed champion in the division.

This is just the WBC throwing a spanner into the post fight plans of the winner. They'll have to come up with a nice sum of money to get the WBC to back off and let them wait for the Joshua-Usyk winner if they're on a promise from Saudi. This is just the WBC after a bigger sliver of any Saudi money.

I hope the site is working faster than this on Saturday night.

"King Dosser" . Not the best presser but hey hello hype up. Fury looked genuinely heated bit on edge and there's just something about Wilder where no matter how cool and relaxed he tries to come off it feels like a bad act. Next time take their phones away too . Be funny if Wilder tries to come out on the backfoot trying to rifle rights down the middle though..

Well I had a little peanut flutter. I loose all £20 if Fury wins by KO or Split.

£2 Fury gets knocked down twice and wins = £46

£2 Fury to win Majority = £52

£10 Wilder to win by KO/TKO = £43

£2 Wilder to win RD 6 = £52

£2 Wilder to win RD 7 = £62

£2 Wilder to win RD 8 = £68

No point in betting pennies on Fury's odds

Wish me luck

To be honest,I really could not give less of a fuck who wins this fight. Wilder cannot box to save his life, and having just watched a snippet of Fury’s diatribe at the weigh in. I don’t find it funny, I find it totally disgraceful, uneducated and ignorant.
I can spout off on here because I’m nobody and about 10 people will read it, but HE KNOWS Millions will watch what he’s had to say.

Part of me would like Fury to flatten Wilder and then eventually fight Usyk because that's an interesting fight to me. Another part of me Likes a good upset

After all these years are you really puzzled by the show put on to promote the fight? Its all bollocks but its all about getting them Wrestling fans and MMA fans on board.
