By Scott Gilfoid: Irish heavyweight Tyson Fury (20-0, 14 KO’s) says he’s been told by the WBC president Jose Sulaiman that he has first dibs on the winner of the April 27th fight between Chris Arreola vs. Bermane Stiverne to fight to become the mandatory challenger for the WBC heavyweight title held by 41-year-old Vitali Klitschko.
What’s new about this is that Fury had been talking about fighting unbeaten #1 IBF contender Kubrat Pulev to try and become the mandatory challenger for IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.
