By Scott Gilfoid: Tyson Fury has accepted last night’s fight offer made by IBF/WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua following his “life and death dance” with Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium in London, England. Joshua called out Fury while inside the ring after beating the 41-year-old Wladimir by an 11th round knockout. What was troubleing though is the fact that Joshua called out Fury despite having a rematch clause with Klitschko. So in other words, for a fight between Joshua and Fury to take place, Wladimir would have to choose to not execute his rematch clause in his contract.

By Scott Gilfoid: Deontay Wilder believes that Wladimir Klitschko has a good shot at beating Anthony Joshua tonight to take his IBF heavyweight strap and win the vacant WBA belt as well when the two fighters meet tonight at Wembley Stadium in London, England.
