“I just want to say big shout out Deontay Wilder,” Fury said after the second fight. “He came here tonight, he manned up. He really did show heart of a champion. I hit him with a clean right and then dropped him and he got back up a battled on into round seven. He is a warrior. He will be back, he will be a champion again, but I will say the King has returned to the top of the throne.”
The third fight was originally set to take place on July 24 but Fury tested positive for COVID-19 on July 19. Fury has a 30-0-1 record and is a two-time world heavyweight champion, having held the WBC and The Ring titles after beating Wilder last year.
