Fury vs. Wilder III: Heavyweight Championship of the World

The much anticipated rematch of Fury vs. Wilder fight will be viewable at Mattingly’s Tavern.

The pay-per-view begins at 9 p.m.

Tickets are available through EventBrite here or at the door the night of the event.

The background to the fight:

Fury and Wilder first fought in December 2018, with the bout ending in a controversial draw.

The pair had a rematch in February 2020, with Fury emerging victorious via seventh-round technical knockout to capture the WBC and vacant Ring magazine heavyweight titles. Wilder initiated a contractual rematch clause in March, with the bout initially being scheduled for July 18. However, due to Wilder still recovering from surgery and concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic, the bout was postponed to October.

The date was again pushed back to December due to the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions that would limit fan attendance. After ESPN were unwilling to televise the bout as the event would conflict with their NFL schedule, it was suggested the date be pushed back for a third time. Upon hearing the news, Fury announced that he was walking away from the fight, stating, "they asked me if I would agree to push it to December. I agreed to Dec. 19. Then they tried to change the date again into next year. I've been training. I'm ready. When they tried moving off Dec. 19 and pushing to next year, enough was enough. I've moved on."

Wilder responded to the comments by releasing a video on social media, accusing Fury of cheating in their February 2020 fight.

Finally, Fury gets his wish and faces Wilder for the Heavyweight Championship of the World on October 9, 2021.
