The pair were set for a showdown on 24th July but Fury tested positive for COVID-19 in the weeks leading up to the fight and it was promptly pushed back in the diary.

The third fight has been a long time coming and fans will be keen to see who comes out on top, especially with a new big fish in the heavyweight pond, Oleksandr Usyk, who brought down Anthony Joshua last month.

Fury and Wilder drew their first encounter after a stunning affair that saw Fury knocked down twice. He produced a pair of staggering comebacks and, in the eyes of many fans across the world, had the better of the fight despite Wilder retaining his title due to the split decision.

The second contest was a very different affair, mainly for the fact that it was barely even a contest. Fury unleashed a stunning performance to floor Wilder twice. The American hit the canvas four times in seven rounds though two occasions were recorded as slips.
