Two of the best heavyweights of this era went to war for the third time this weekend in Las Vegas. Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder settled the scores after three insane fights that delivered every single time. ‘The Gypsy King’ and ‘The Bronze Bomber’ came into the fight on the back of one draw and one win to Fury.
Ultimately, it was Tyson Fury who was able to assert himself once again and secure a devastating knockout in round 11 to settle the debate once and for all. UFC superstar Conor McGregor took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the fight and how it played out.
Their skill levels are unique but very close. A great heavyweight trilogy that was. I love when it gets set for certain and both have an honorable showing. Not the fam in the ring fake celebrating after a freak injury etc etc you know the gig, God bless the real in this world.
