After defeating Francesco Pianeta last Saturday, it was announced that former lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury would battle WBC heavyweight champion, Deontay Wilder. The fight will reportedly take place in America sometime in November or December.
While most fans would love for Wilder to fight Anthony Joshua, Wilder-Fury is a great alternative. Now, the question is who wins?
According to former Unified Light-heavyweight champion Andre Ward, Wilder gets it done:
“All man, Wilder,” Ward told Paul Gant. “Ain’t no fight easy, especially at that level, but Fury is going to make it interesting for sure. I don’t think he can deal with Wilder; Wilder has been fighting consistently, and he’s in a groove right now. Fury, he had some issues, and the two fights he just had is not going to prepare him for WIlder. It’s not going to do it.”
