The wait is finally over. Tyson Fury vs. Deontay Wilder III for the WBC heavyweight championship, arguably the biggest fight of 2021, takes place Saturday night in Las Vegas. The trilogy bout — initially scheduled for last July before Fury tested positive for COVID-19 — could complete one of the biggest rivalries ever seen in the sport.
Fury took the second matchup after picking apart Wilder for seven rounds before his own corner threw in the towel to end it early. Wilder knocked Fury to the floor in the first fight; but Fury miraculously got back to his feet and finished the fight that ended in a split-decision draw.
Saturday's fight has a multitude of intriguing storylines. How will Wilder respond after being embarassed in the second matchup? Will Fury’s impeccable defense be on display once again or will he get caught by a power shot? What’s on the line now that Anthony Joshua fell to Oleksandr Usyk last month?
