Wilder lost to Tyson Fury in February 2020. This was his first and the most dreadful loss in his extensive boxing career. Prior to that, Wilder had a stellar run in the game and he placed himself as one of the most terrifying fighting prospects.

But the Brit gave a major blow to the Alabama native and consequently dethroned him from his spot. Ever since then, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ has asked for only one bout, that is, a trilogy with ‘The Gypsy King’. And for that, he’s immersed himself in some rigorous training sessions.

Wilder doesn’t wish to leave any stones unturned for his third encounter with Fury. And accordingly, he’s taking himself into deep waters every day to give his best hit in the fight.

This fight is vital for both the fighters, but for Wilder, this contest plays a prime role in escalating his boxing run. This bout is more than the belts for him this time and it’ll unquestionably help him solidify his legacy.
