Follow Us
Frank Warren is looking for some alternative options if Deontay Wilder doesn’t stand up against Tyson Fury by the end of this year. Although the two are slated to fight for one more time, there has been no update from Wilder’s side regarding the matchup.
Since his crushing defeat in the rematch, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ has appeared little on public platforms. Also, he hasn’t confirmed the trilogy bout yet. However, Fury is unwilling to wait any further.
The Britisher has desired to accept a challenge in December. And if it’s not Deontay Wilder, then he is ready to test himself against Anthony Joshua or others.

Frank Warren further added, “It (Wilder fight) was supposed to take place, I think in June or July, and unfortunately it didn’t and at the moment.”
“It don’t look like it is gonna happen this year unless Bob Arum pulls a rabbit out of a hat and puts it on in the States.”

However, several other factors might influence the materialization of the contest. Since boxing events are still to allow fan attendance, Fury vs Wilder 3 will only happen behind closed doors Well, that might cause a tremendous loss in terms of gate sales.
The previous contest between them collected a massive amount of gate. And if there’s no audience, Warren wants to have an alternate way of making money.
Speaking about it, Warren said, “The last fight got the highest-grossing heavyweight fights to take place in Vegas and that’s a massive amount of money, nearly 20 million and that’s not gonna be there. So you gotta find some way to make, so the guys get the purses that they are looking for, so it’s tough.”

Thus, it is safe to believe that Wilder and Fury are not battling this year unless their promoters find a lucrative way out. However, ‘The Gypsy King’ is adamant about fighting in 2020. Thus, he might slip into the unification bout against Joshua anytime sooner.
