In the first fight, many thought that Fury actually won the fight. Which made the rematch much more interesting to fans around the world. It became a spectacle like no other and easily one of the most anticipated fights in heavyweight history. Fury vs Wilder II Many questioned Wilder’s tactics from the very beginning of the fight. Instead of using his trademark style when he walks opponents down and lands his trademark right hand, he came out poised. He paced himself, threw an occasional jab, and fought the majority of the entire fight on his back foot. As Fury continued to gain momentum, he was able to corner Wilder and unleash a barrage of punches. Those very punches caused Deontay’s corner to throw in the towel during the 7th round, resulting in a TKO loss. Activating the Rematch Clause Due to the loss, Wilder is able to activate his rematch clause which he recently made official. https://twitter.com/SportsCenter/status/1234279340491313152 According to SportsCenter, the trilogy fight is planning to take place on July 18th at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Once the bout is made official, expect fight fans around the world to flood the Vegas streets.
