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.
By Scott Gilfoid: For American boxing fans interested in seeing the November 29th rematch between British heavyweights Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) and Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs), they can see the fight on ESPN3.com in the United States.
It’s unclear just how much interest there would be in a fight between Chisora and Fury for casual boxing fans in the U.S, but I’m sure hardcore fans might want to see the fight just for the sake of finding out which of these two guys will
By Scott Gilfoid: #4 WBO, #5 IBF, #11 WBC heavyweight contender Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) is promising that his rematch against Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs) on November 29th will be a war when the two of them meet up at the ExCel Arena in London, UK.
The Chisora-Fury 2 fight will be a WBO heavyweight eliminator bout despite the fact that neither guy has beaten anyone of note during their careers. Fury’s biggest win of his 6-year pro career was against a 260 pound Chisora, which isn’t much of a win given how out of shape Chisora was for the fight.
Tyson Fury is following Hollywood star Brad Pitt into action and is ready for war against heavyweight rival Dereck Chisora.
Pitt tops the box-office in the UK with his hit movie Fury about an army sergeant in World War Two who commands a tank with a five-man crew in Nazi Germany.
And the undefeated Wilmslow giant posed with a tank as he prepares for his own mission behind enemy lines on Saturday 29th November at the ExCeL London in a massive European, Vacant British and Eliminator for the WBO World title clash against Londoner Chisora.
By Scott Gilfoid: Unbeaten #4 WBO, #5 IBF, #11 WBC heavyweight contender Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) is targeting unbeaten heavyweight prospect Anthony Joshua (9-0, 9 KOs) for a fight after Fury takes care of business against Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs) on November 29th at the ExCel Arena in London, UK.
Fury obviously has heard Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn opening his yap about how he thinks Joshua will be ready to beat Fury by next year, and Fury looks like he wants to take Hearn on his word by pushing for the fight.
By Scott Gilfoid: In what has to be seen as a protest against the British Boxing Board of Control for their stiff £15,000 fine handed out to Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) for the trash talking he did in the past in another press conference with Chisora, Fury decided to tape his mouth and not speak for today’s press conference.
It was kind of a senseless move on Fury’s part because by not speaking, he’s shooting himself in the foot by not helping to get boxing fans interested in his November 22nd rematch with Chisora at the ExCel Arena in London, UK.
By Scott Gilfoid: The Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs) vs. Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) rematch has been moved from November 22nd to November 29th at the Excel Arena in London, UK, according to Dan Rafael. The fight will still be a WBO heavyweight eliminator bout with the winner to become the WBO mandatory challenger to IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.
Chisora and Fury were supposed to have faced each other during the summer, but Chisora suffered a hand injury, causing him to have to pull out of the fight the week of the actual bout. Fury attempted to fight anyway against an in shape Alexander Ustinov, but then Fury pulled out of the fight due to his uncle Hughie having an emergency medical problem.
By Scott Gilfoid: Jason Gavern, who was recently blown out by unbeaten heavyweight knockout artist Deontay Wilder in 4 rounds this month on August 16th, thinks that #4 WBO Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) will be the next heavyweight champion, not Deontay. Gavern says he was in training camp with the 6’9” Fury and he came away impressed by that experience.
Gavern doesn’t say who Fury will beat to become a world champion. I mean, if he’s the next heavyweight champion and he’s fighting in a WBO heavyweight eliminator bout on November 22nd to become the WBO mandatory challenger, then Gavern has got to be talking about Fury beating IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko to become a world champion.
By Scott Gilfoid: American heavyweight talent Deontay Wilder (31-0, 31 KOs) foresees himself meeting up with British heavyweight Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) next year in a fight that Wilder believes will be a huge fight that would make promoters unnecessary.
Presumably, Wilder believes that Fury will win his next fight against Dereck Chisora on November 22nd, and then beat IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko after that. The Fury-Chisora fight is a WBO heavyweight eliminator bout with the winner becoming Wladimir’s WBO mandatory challenger.
By Scott Gilfoid: Earlier today it was announced that the WBO heavyweight eliminator bout between Dereck Chisora and Tyson Fury, which was supposed to have taken place last month, has been rescheduled for November 22nd in London, UK.
Chisora pulled out of the fight last time complaining of a hand injury. Fury still doesn’t buy the excuse, and feels that Chisora got a case of cold feet. At any rate, Fury wants to make Chisora pay for pulling out when he gets him in the ring on 11/22.
By Scott Gilfoid: British heavyweights Tyson Fury and Dereck Chisora will be facing each other on November 22nd in a WBO heavyweight title eliminator at the ExCel Arena in London, UK.
They were supposed to face each other last month but the fight had to be postponed due to Chisora suffering a thumb injury while sparring mammoth 6’7”, 280+ pound Belarusian heavyweight Alexander Ustinov to get ready for the Fury fight.
Fury then attempted to go ahead with the card by scheduling to fight Ustinov, but then he pulled out of the card the day of the fight due to a family emergency.
Fury and Chisora will be fighting for the European as well as the vacant British heavyweight straps in addition to the bout being a WBO heavyweight eliminator.
