Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder are set for a massive boxing contest this weekend.

This Saturday night (December 1, 2018) Fury will challenge Wilder for the WBC heavyweight championship from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The fight will air on Showtime pay-per-view (PPV). The pair has been at each other’s throats in recent weeks trying to promote their fight.

Recently, Fury took aim at Wilder’s “Bronze Bomber” nickname, suggesting it means Wilder is willing to settle for third place. That would put Wilder third in the heavyweight rankings behind fellow top stars Fury and Anthony Joshua. Speaking to Boxing Scene recently, Fury said he’s not willing to settle for anything less than first place:

“I’m here to be the best. If I can’t be the best, then I don’t wanna be the rest. Second place ain’t for me, and third place definitely ain’t for me. But Deontay Wilder is happy to come in the top three.

“That’s why he calls himself ‘The Bronze Bomber,’ because of his bronze medal in the Olympics. I’d throw that bronze medal in the bin because I didn’t win the gold. So for me, it’s about being the best, number one.

“For other fighters, it’s just about being on the podium, being in the top three. So if he can mix it with the big boys and be mentioned with the best, then no problem.”

The story behind Wilder vs. Fury is a captivating one. Wilder has been gunning for a fight with heavyweight kingpin Anthony Joshua, and a victory over Fury might get him exactly that.

As for Fury, he has been struggling with depression since defeating Wladimir Klitschko several years ago. Fury’s condition was so bad that he nearly took his own life.

Now, however, Fury has seemingly overcome his mental health issues, and is ready to prove a point against Wilder this weekend in California.

Televised mascots beware, because WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder just took out one of your own.

Recently, the “Bronze Bomber” appeared on Nacion ESPN to promote his upcoming fight with Tyson Fury. During the appearance, the hosts had Wilder hit a dummy. They then asked him to hit their mascot in either the stomach or face. Wilder chose the face. With one good right-hand, Wilder layed the mascot out to the ground.

Apparently, Wilder didn’t realize there was someone inside the costume. He took to his Instagram to issue out an apology to the person who absorbed the devastating shot. He even invited him to his fight against Fury in December:

“Yea, Anything headlining I didn’t know a “Human Being” was in there is just straight “Click Baiting”
like come on now, I guess the Mascot rolled out there. show so respect! I sincerely apologize to the brave man that was injured (if this is true) I have the up most high respect for him, his participation, willingness and courage. If this is true @nacionespn I personally would like to invite him to my Dec.1 fight. Word Is Bond -CHAMP”

Check out the amazing knockout Anthony Joshua scored to stay undefeated.

Anthony Joshua is still the undisputed heavyweight king of the boxing world.

The Englishman was able to retain his WBA (Super), IBF, WBO (Super), and IBO heavyweight titles against Alexander Povetkin. Joshua knocked out Povetkin in the 7th round of their bout from the Wembley Stadium in London, England.

The victory marked the 22nd consecutive win of Joshua’s career. He has won all but one of those fights via knockout. Check out Joshua’s finish of Povetkin here:

Joshua is the “money fight” in the heavyweight division of boxing. Fellow top-ranked heavyweight stars such as Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury have been trying to land a fight with the Englishman for quite some time. Unfortunately, a deal has never been able to come to fruition.

Wilder and Fury will instead fight one another in December. The winner is expected to be Joshua’s next opponent, likely in April from Wembley Stadium. There’s an April 13th date available from the venue that Joshua would like to make his return at for a big fight.

Whether it’s against Wilder or Fury, Joshua and Wembley Stadium will certainly do big business with each other when the time comes.
