Ink to paper: Fury, Wilder sign for trilogy fight



LAS VEGAS -- WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder have both signed contracts for the third bout in their heavyweight rivalry.

During the Josh Taylor-Jose Ramirez telecast on ESPN on Saturday, Fury said that he had signed his contract. Wilder has also finalized his side of the deal, according to boxing manager Shelly Finkel.

The fight will be on July 24, sources told ESPN. T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas will host the bout, Top Rank's Bob Arum told ESPN's Kel Dansby.

Fury will receive 60% of the purse to 40% for Wilder, sources told ESPN's Mark Kriegel.

The agreement comes six days after an independent arbitrator ruled that Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs) was legally obligated for a third fight with Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs).

The arbitrator's ruling derailed negotiations between Fury and Anthony Joshua for an undisputed title fight in Saudi Arabia this summer. Both sides were on the verge of finalizing a deal before Monday's arbitration.

Discussions were limited regarding a potential "step-aside" fee to Wilder to make Fury-Joshua possible.

Prior to the first fight in 2018 that ended in a draw, Wilder had knocked out all his previous opponents. Fury got off the canvas in the 12th round to escape his first defeat. In the 2020 rematch, Fury battered Wilder for a seventh-round TKO victory. Neither fighter has fought since the bout.

Wilder by KO

the man in the mountains on his Rocky training .. str8 focus no talking no press ,, all work
same way AJ went into the hyperbolic time chamber for Ruiz rematch .. disappeared for 6 months , came back with a full grown beard

Fury too busy partying and dossering ... same way Andy was partying with snickers and candy bars

keep playing around Fury cuz you outboxed him 16 outta 19 rounds
Wilder still only need 2 seconds

[O³ (O cubed)]

Wilder is going to outpoint Fury. Possibly knock Fury out.

 

[Neuromancer]

I need to see more jabbing from him.

 

[BlackDiBiase]

never left being a Wilder fan, that silence then you know silly talk lets just say that was disappointing.

i am going for Wilder again by KO, i dont think he'll be as surprised and will have ulterior game plans if Fury is coming up with problems.

all the excuses is what made folks lose respect. Breh shoulda stayed silent, training, and won his case then come out the shadows.
