Tyson Fury v Agit Kabayel - 5/12/20 - BT Sports

[smashup]

The heavyweight champion had been due to take on Deontay Wilder for a third time but walked away from the fight after it was postponed until 2021.

He will instead take on the unbeaten Kabayel at the Royal Albert Hall in his first fight in the UK in more than two years, subject to the German agreeing terms.

In confirming Fury's choice of opponent, promoter Frank Warren told talkSPORT: "We're giving the guy we want to fight, which is Kabayel, 24 hours now to sign the contract or we're going to move on.

Kabayel has had a win over Chisora in the past and sparred with AJ, other than that he's pretty unknown.
If you think about it most of the higher end fighters are fighting in the coming months or have recently fought so opponents are pretty limited.

Guaranteed Kabayel sparked AJ in sparring whisper incoming

Yeah he's alright. He has the win over a flat Chisora on one of those dodgy nights in Monte Carlo or whatever it was. I know pickings are a bit slim but it's not a very inspiring fight is it. He's top 15 so fits the voluntary bill I suppose. Would have preferred something out of left field a bit with a punchers chance at least. Ajagba or summat.

Can we talk here about just how fucking bonkers Wilder has become? It's brilliant.

The suit was too heavy. Fury cheated with the gloves in both fights. The whole thing was a massive conspiracy and everyone was in on it. Breland was instrumental stopping the fight on demand by team Fury. He also drugged Wilder by tampering with his water. Wilder was pronounced dead 24 hours before the fight took place but came back to life. OK I made one of those up.

He's proper going after Breland.

Oh and Fury hid an egg shaped object in his glove Wilder has an egg shaped dent in his head til this day!!

He's lost the plot Wilder 😂

Deontay Wilder has started legal action after Tyson Fury abandoned his plans to face the American for a third time.

Fury believes the rematch clause in his contract has expired and will instead fight Agit Kabayel in London on December 5.

But Wilder, who was stopped in the seventh round by Fury in February, believes he has the law on his side.

He and his team intend to begin mediation this week which will involve a retired judge reviewing the contract.

"We’re going into it very optimistically this week," Wilder's manager, Shelly Finkel, told The Athletic .

Fury and Wilder's trilogy clash was due to take place on July 18 before the coronavirus crisis forced it back to October 3.
It was then delayed until December 19 but was again postponed due to a clash with college football in the US.

At that point Fury walked away and will instead fight in the UK for the first time in over two years when he takes on Kabayel at the Royal Albert Hall.

Wilder has recently embarked on a smear campaign, accusing Fury of tampering with his gloves and his own trainer Mark Breland of spiking his water.

The former heavyweight world champion has also blamed his 40lb ring-walk suit, an injury and the referee for his punishing first professional defeat.

Fury said recently: "The original date was July 18. That didn't happen because he had an injury so it got put back three months to October, then that didn't happen because they were trying to get a venue.

"And then they had three dates in December – 5th, 12th, 19th – which I agreed to all them and obviously that didn't happen. So, I'm not going to wait around forever."
