Deontay Wilder. Tyson Fury. Two of the best heavyweights in the world today, poised to take center stage this Saturday night in Las Vegas, live on Showtime pay-per-view.
Wilder, 33, will be defending his WBC title belt. Fury, 30, is still considered by many to be the heavyweight division’s lineal champion.
There’s a lot on the line, and it’s one of the biggest fights of 2018, years in the making.
But it hasn’t always been this way for either fighter. Both came into the sport with hype. Fury because he’s a big, tall, trash talking, charismatic heavyweight with, let’s face it, one of the greatest names you’ll ever hear for a fighter.
