“He just talks s***, that’s why I call him the Gypsy Kid, he’s like a kid, he talks s*** the whole time. Before the third Wilder fight at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman made it clear that the winner on Saturday night must face Dillian Whyte or Otto Wallin next.
Wallin previously fought Fury himself two years ago, losing on a unanimous points decision after causing a significant cut above his opponent’s eye which hampered Fury’s vision.įury has previously labelled 33-year-old Whyte a “s***house*” on social media, and Whyte has been quick to chastise the Wythenshawe-native in return. What next for Fury was a question immediately being asked by fans, former fighters and journalists, and the answer is simple.
And this is undeniably on a different scale. In order to take the shot at Fury he so desperately desires, though, Whyte must first defeat Swedish southpaw Otto Wallin at the O2 Arena at the end of this month. Now it’s time for Tyson Fury, fighting in Britain for the first time since 2018. Whyte won his last fight, against the Russian Alexander Povetkin in Gibraltar six months ago, reclaiming the WBC interim heavyweight title in the process. If you're willingly settled for second, say no more.Most likely, though, is a much-anticipated bout with Dillian Whyte, who has long-awaited his chance to face Fury. He's happy to come second place, he's too easily happy to come second position. And now the 32-year-old Morecambe man (30-0-1) will instead fight in a homecoming bout in the UK on. Tyson had an exhibition bout of his own less than two years ago, fighting Roy Jones Jr. It was inevitable that his victory speech would lead to questions about his recent claims this would be his last bout, and Steve Bunce was in. What came afterwards, however, likely caught a fair few diehard boxing fans off-guard. Fury’s trilogy match with ‘The Bronze Bomber’ was finally scuppered by COVID-19 last week. An exhibition fight between Fury and Tyson is much more realistic. Tyson Furys six-round job on mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium on Saturday didnt surprise many. "You have to be an elite, special human being for that and I don't think Joshua possesses that will to win to do that. Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3 will not now happen on December 19, and ‘The Gypsy King’ is looking for another opponent in his next fight. "I just think that Usyk's too good of a boxer for AJ and I don't think AJ has got the ability to pressurise him for 12 rounds, drag him into a dog fight and knock him out," Fury told combat sports reporter Gareth A Davies during an interview on his YouTube channel John’s prediction for the rematch is not shared by his son Tyson because the Mancunian puncher believes Usyk is ‘too good’ of a boxer for AJ. I’m telling you the truth, if you want me out of retirement it’s gonna cost half a billi.” The WBC is yet to make an official ruling on Tyson Furys next WBC heavyweight title. I’d probably want half a billi to come out of retirement. Tyson Furys next fight not ordered by WBC with Dillian Whyte waiting for confirmation of world title shot. That would be like half of what I would want to come out of retirement. The statement came after reports suggested Tyson would unretire for a £200m payday, but Tyson told talkSPORT: “Even that £200million report today, that didn’t even tempt me.
