Boxing fans will have to wait for the highly-anticipated rematch between WBC heavyweight champ Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury.
The pair put on an absolute classic back in December. While both men could’ve arguably won the fight, the judges ruled the contest a majority draw. Talk of a rematch immediately began to dominate the newswire. Both Wilder and Fury seemed game to run things back off a quick turnaround. Of course, another roadblock has prevented that from happening.
The World Boxing Council (WBC) has announced that they’ve canceled their ordered Wilder vs. Fury rematch. They revealed mandatory challenger Dominic Breazeale will now get a shot at Wilder’s title after failed negotiations for the Fury fight (via IOL):
“WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder shall fulfil his mandatory obligations by fighting Dominic Breazeale next.”
WBC added that both parties have until April 4th to reach an agreement on terms and conditions for the contest. If no agreement can be made, then a purse bid will be held by the sanctioning body for the fight. That doesn’t seem like it’ll be an issue, however.
ESPN reports the Wilder and Breazeale camps are discussing a May 18th date from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Wilder’s co-manager, Shelly Finkel, had this to say:
“We’re hoping to get it done,” Finkel said. “Hopefully, it will happen this week or next week, and hopefully it’s done. At this point, it’s not done. But I think (Breazeale) is a competitive and viable opponent.”
He is a competitive opponent, but the overall boxing fanbase was looking for Wilder vs. Fury II. It could still happen someday, but Fury’s recent multi-fight contract with ESPN to air his fights in the US put a damper on that.

Wilder’s co-manager Shelly Finkel declined to give too many details on the offer. However, he did tell ESPN on Friday (Feb. 22, 2019) he had indeed received an offer from Top Rank for a multi-fight deal for Wilder that would include the rematch with Fury.
“They made an offer. I wrote back that we received it. We will review it and we will respond,” Finkel said. “If we are amenable to the offer, we will be able to get something done. If the terms are amenable to us, something will happen, If not, it won’t.”
Finkel explained that he would look the offer over with fellow co-managers Al Haymon and Jay Deas (Wilder’s trainer), as well as the man himself.
“We will all talk it through and then we will make a decision,” Finkel said. “That’s how we do it. But we want the rematch, so that is not the issue.”
Wilder, 33, is from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. In the past, he had been aligned with Showtime and Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions. But he has said he is not contractually tied to any network.
With the Wilder and Fury camps nearing a deal, the WBC ordered them to fight next and set a purse bid date. Twice it was postponed. Then came Fury’s signing with Top Rank, leaving the rematch up in the air.
On Friday, Mauricio Sulaiman WMC President said that he has been in communication with each pugilist’s side to see where talks for the rematch stand.
“There will be no further comments until the WBC receives official communication from both sides by Tuesday, Feb. 26th,” Sulaiman said.
