Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury, a British boxing giant standing tall at 6’9″ and tipping the scales at 278 lbs, has been ruling the heavyweight division with his iron fists since 2020. Not just a family man with a bunch of kids and a love story that dates back to 2008 with Paris, but Fury also boasts a record that reads like a warrior’s epic—especially his trilogy with Deontay Wilder (2-0-1, with 2 KOs) and a hat trick against Derek Chisora. Before claiming the WBC crown, he unified the heavyweight titles way back in 2015, only to take a brief hiatus from the throne. With a squad of fighting siblings by his side, Fury’s not just throwing punches; he’s crafting a legacy that’s as large as his frame. Tyson Fury’s net worth is estimated to be around £50million, according to Forbes magazine.
Wladimir Klitschko: “This is not the first time I’m fighting in Düsseldorf. I have faced many fighters that were different. This time, I have a colourful guy who’s young and wants the challenge.
“I heard him say he’s nervous, which means he’s well-prepared and alert. I’m nervous before every fight. I always face so many challenges. I’m happy that this fight will take place. We’ll see each other at the workout, the weigh-in and the fight. I want to thank the fans following this fight.”
By Michael Montero – This Saturday in Dusseldorf, Germany, undisputed heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko defends his crown for the nineteenth straight time against undefeated British giant Tyson Fury. For Klitschko, this will mark the third bout in a three-fight deal he signed with American premium cable network HBO last year. Fury represents the third straight undefeated contender the champion has faced; in fact six of his last seven opponents unblemished records. But Fury will present a whole new challenge for the nearly forty year old Ukrainian this Saturday night, let’s take a look.
By Scott Gilfoid: Britain’s Lennox Lewis believes that IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) needs to beat Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) this Saturday night by bombing out the unbeaten 6’9″ fighter with a big right hand, and then go after the WBC title, which is currently held by Deontay Wilder (35-0, 34 KOs).
Lewis says Wladimir needs to try and win the WBC belt and then retire from the sport before age and injuries catches up to him. To be sure, Wladimir has recently started showing his age in his last two fights against Bryant Jennings and Kubrat Pulev.
By Scott Gilfoid: Trainer Peter Fury believes that the plan that he’s got for his fighter Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) will be perfect for him to defeat IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) this Saturday night at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.
Peter is pretty confident that the plan will work to defeat Klitschko. It’s unclear what that plan could be though, because the fighting style that have derailed Wladimir in the past is heavy pressure and hard punches from sluggers. Fury isn’t a pressure fighter though, and he’s not a hard puncher.
By Scott Gilfoid: Former super middleweight champion Carl Froch has serious doubts about Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) beating IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) in their fight this Saturday night at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.
Froch believes the 6’6” Klitschko will win a hard fought decision. However, Froch says he’d like to see Fury rough Klitschko up and make him earn his win the hard way by making it tough for him the full 12 rounds.
By Scott Gilfoid: Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) is only days away from fighting in the biggest bout of his life against IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) this Saturday night at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.
There’s all kinds of pressure on Fury in this fight because if he wins, he’ll be getting loads of sweet cash in a rematch with the 6’6” Ukrainian heavyweight. But if Fury gets whipped and knocked out badly by Klitschko like a lot of people think he will be, then his career will be the equivalent of a raging dumpster fire that no one will be able to put out.
By Scott Gilfoid: In what has to be seen as overkill, IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) used his 6’7” brother former WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko for several rounds of sparring to get ready for his title defense next Saturday night against the rangy 6’9” Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.
Vitali, 44, hasn’t fought since 2012, when he successfully defended his WBC heavyweight title by easily beating Manuel Charr in a mismatch. However, Vitali is still likely more than good enough to step inside the ring and beat the likes of Fury on short notice if he were to be the one fighting this Saturday night.
Bashir a man who simply doesn’t mince his words, direct to the point alike Peter Fury another regular to BaylorIC TV. Boxing fans have grown tired of the soundbites, words for the camera and the showbusiness and want to hear the truth, what really is going on.
By Scott Gilfoid: There will be a packed house on November 28th at the ESPRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany, and Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) thinks he’s going to steal the crowd with his performance against IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs).
Fury acknowledges that the German crowd will be firmly in Wladimir’s favor in this fight, but he thinks that he’s going to have them cheering for him by the end of the fight. Personally, I think Fury is delusional with his thinking. He’s got a serious pipe dream going in thinking that he’s going to be marching out of the ring in Germany being cheered by an adoring crowd of Germans.
By Scott Gilfoid: #1 WBO Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) has his mind made up that he can’t win a decision in Germany over IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 KOs) due to him being a Brit and Klitschko being what he calls a “super champion.”
Fury seems to think that it’s impossible to beat the talented 6’6” Klitschko by a points decision, so he figures he’s got to go in there and try to score a knockout over the 39-year-old fighter. Klitschko has been knocked out three times in his career, but by big punchers each time.
