                                           READ  Tyson Fury: the Path to Heavyweight Clarity

“We’re ready now,” Wilder said during the post-fight interview. “This fight will happen. It’s on. This fight is official. This is what we’ve been waiting for, the best fighting the best.


“There’s one thing Tyson Fury has never had. He’s won a lot of belts but he’s never had the WBC belt. If he ever even thinks about having this belt he better wake up and apologize to me because it will never happen. I can’t wait to fight you because I am going to knock you out. This I promise you. Every man who has ever stepped in the ring with me, I’ve knocked them out in devastating fashion. You’ve never been knocked out, but you’re going to feel the experience of what it’s like to be hit by the Bronze Bomber.”




                                              



The 6-foot-9 Fury, who never lost his titles in the ring, will now face the 6-foot-7 Wilder, who has 39 knockouts in his 40 professional fights.


“We are two men who will fight anybody,” Fury said. “This man has been trying to make a big fight with the other chump, I think we all know who I’m talking about. They called, I answered. I said to send the contract, they sent me the contract. I said yes. And now he gets his chance to fight the linear heavyweight champion of the world.

Wilder v Fury: The ups and downs of Tyson Fury’s career

   On the way to a defining win over Wladimir Klitschko, Tyson Fury polarised opinion. Little has changed as he faces up to Deontay Wilder.   Tyson Fury enters Saturday’s blockbuster showdown against Deontay Wilder with a perfect professional record of 27-0, a 70 per cent knockout ratio and the knowledge he has already scaled the mountain of becoming unified and linear heavyweight champion of the world. Fury’s descent in the months after his crowning night against Wladimir Klitschko three years ago has been well documented, but his career up until that point was not the journey of smooth success the numbers suggest. The 30-year-old tended to baffle as much as he dazzled, inside the ring and out, meaning he remains a polarising figure. Here, we chart a journey from Manchester to Dusseldorf, then despair and back. Punching himself in the face Like most sports, boxing never had an equivalent to football’s own goal, cricket’s hit-wicket dismissal ...

If you’re looking for an early Christmas present,   Deontay Wilder   vs   Tyson Fury   could be the ultimate gift of the festive period. In   Los Angeles, the city of Angels will become the circle of giants, as two of the biggest – and best – fighters on the planet finally meet in the centre of the ring.

It’s also a fight where depending on your standpoint, overall victory may not be the most accurate method of success. Mental health statistics can be frightening to read. Suicide is the biggest cause of death for men under 45, while on average, one in four people in the UK will experience mental health issues each year.
