Tyson Fury Declares War On America

The former heavyweight champion is set to take on WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder this coming December in the US.

In recent weeks it was widely thought that Las Vegas was the front-runner to secure the fight but as time has gone on, that isn’t as clear as it was.

There has been talks that a lot of States and venues have been in the bidding war to stage the fight.

As things have progressed, I’m leaning more to thinking the fight will happen in New York in either the Barclays Center or at Madison Square Garden.

Fury won’t care where it happens of course, as will Wilder, but the former heavyweight champion is certainly relishing the American trip judging by this:

The fight is finally expected to be announced this coming Monday in London with Deontay Wilder also present and an international press tour to follow in LA and New York.
