Tyson Fury trainer and uncle Peter Fury has confirmed to Boxing News and Views when his nephew will take on Wladimir Klitschko next in their rematch for the lineal Heavyweight Title.
The pro boxing calendar is in one of it’s quieter times at the moment, with the Olympic boxing action taking precedence for the next couple of weeks or so.
But heavyweight champion of the world Tyson Fury will be back into full training camp next week for his upcoming rematch with Ukraine’s Wladimir Klitschko, after recently celebrating the birth of his new son and overcoming a recent injury to his ankle.
Ahead of his return to hard preparation, we spoke to Peter Fury today who confirmed to us that the fight will definitely take place on October 29th:
“Yes 29th Oct Tyson will be fighting.”
It is widely anticipated that the fight will take place in Manchester and in particular, the Manchester Arena, where the first rematch date was due to take place prior to Tyson’s injury postponing the original date.
Tyson Fury (25-0-18KO) defeated Wladimir Klitschko (64-4-53KO) in November 2015 via unanimous decision in Dusseldorf, Germany to become the first man in 11 years to beat the previously massively dominant heavyweight champion.
