The fight before the fight: the heavyweights stole the rags
LOS ANGELES. Heavyweight boxers Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury clashed verbally and physically during a press conference.
Wild against fury
The American WBC champion and his British opponent jostled each other in Los Angeles before the kickoff of the World Cup scheduled Sunday (3 am, DAZN live) for the WBC belt at Staples Center and had to be separated from records. The skirmish was extremely emotional. Fury had infuriated Wilder with his usual crispy ads. The teams of both boxers were involved in this altercation. In the next 60 seconds, there was a wild clutter on the stage.
As the security personnel tried to calm the scene, Fury tore off his shirt. Subsequently, the duo and his supporters were kicked out of the scene. Already in early October, Fury and Wilder had met at a press conference in London, even though they had come to grips with it.
The 30-year-old British Fury also won the second fight after returning to Belfast in August. He unanimously beat the German-Italian Francesco Pianeta to the points. In 2015 in Düsseldorf, Fury surprisingly dethroned Wladimir Klitschko and thus won the three world titles of Ukraine (WBA, WBO and IBF). The former world champion is still unbeaten in 27 professional fights (19 knockouts). Even the American Wilder has a white vest. Out of 40 fights won the "Bronzed Bomber" 39 prematurely.
