The Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder confrontation in the ring last night was the main story following what proved to be a straight forward win in the end for Fury this weekend.
Francesco Pianeta didn’t land much on Fury who showed some good movement and footwork last night as his bid to return to the form of old continues.
He’ll need that form in his next fight, too, as he gets ready for an unexpected shot at WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder.
A huge fight for boxing indeed.
A super fight in the heavyweight division between two of the top three biggest names at heavyweight outside of Anthony Joshua.
The crowd erupted last night when the two-faced off.
Here’s the full series of events in what happened:
It’s certainly going to be a fight that sells.
The two outside of being two of the top heavyweight fighters in the world are also up there for two of the best talkers in boxing.
With Showtime and BT Sport behind the event in the US and UK, expect one hell of a promotion over the next couple of months starting with an expected announcement at a press conference tomorrow in London.
