FOX Sports is set to air extensive preview programming in anticipation of the July 24 Pay-Per-View trilogy showdown between undefeated WBC and lineal heavyweight world champion Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury and former longtime heavyweight champion Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder, beginning Saturday, July 3.

Their first meeting took place on December 1, 2018, and saw Wilder retain his title via a split draw after Fury miraculously rose from a 12th-round knockdown to finish the fight.

In their second meeting on February 22, 2020, Fury defeated Wilder by seventh-round stoppage to capture the WBC heavyweight world title.

Now, as the two prepare for the highly anticipated trilogy, preview programming coming to FOX Sports includes the three-part INSIDE FURY VS. WILDER III docuseries, as well as the one-hour COUNTDOWN: TYSON FURY VS. DEONTAY WILDER III special.
