In less than 4 days from now, Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder will storm into the boxing ring for the WBC heavyweight title match. The duo has fought each other twice before. Their first fight was in 2018, which ended with a draw. Later on, they collided in February 2020, wherein Fury won the fight in a sensational fashion.
As the scores between the two were incomplete, it gave rise to a trilogy. Earlier, the third meet between the pair was set for July 24. Unfortunately, as ‘The Gypsy King’ and his teammates tested positive for Covid-19, this bout got postponed to October 9.

Recently, Fury, who was in a chat with Ariel Helwani, talked about his Covid-19 period and whether it affected him. He said, “Not really. I’ve had it twice now. That’s the second time I’ve had Covid. Second time, I’ve had it twice. It didn’t really hospitalize me, didn’t put me in bed. I just felt a little bit under the weather. I think I’ve had worse chest infections, guaranteed.”
The WBC champ recovered well and quickly got himself out of the clutches of the ongoing pandemic. Subsequently, he took no time to hit the gym and get back into his old form.
