Here is what the fighters and their trainers had to say Tuesday from The Novo by Microsoft at L.A. Live-:
TYSON FURY
“It was a crazy roller coaster toward this fight. I always say, ‘you’re never fighting someone, until you’re in the ring opposite them.’ It wasn’t hard for me to adjust to fighting Deontay Wilder again. It’s what I’m paid to do.
“I’m just always training and staying motivated. I’m happy to be living and here right now. I look forward to today. That’s how I manage everything. I’m a ‘living in the moment’ type of person.
“I hope Deontay brings something different for this fight. He needs to, if we’re facing facts. I hope he brings a challenge. Hopefully Malik Scott can bring the best out of Deontay Wilder.
“The beating from the last fight has had a physical, mental and emotional effect on his life. I was worried about him after the way I beat him.
“Deontay Wilder is a one-trick pony. He’s got great one-punch knockout power. I’m going to run him over like I’m an 18-wheeler. I guarantee he doesn’t go past where he did in the second fight. I’m looking for a big knockout straight away.
“He said all this stuff about bloodshed last time and we all know what happened last time. I’m going to keep it short and sweet today.”
Deontay Wilder
“Enough has been said. It’s time to cut off his head. Come July the 24, there will be bloodshed. Get your tickets now and I’ll see you soon.
“A lot of things are going to be different in this fight. Juli 24, the world is going to see. We’re going to reveal everything we’ve been working on.
“I didn’t feel any way about Fury trying to negotiate another fight. We knew we were in the right and we knew they couldn’t run. Silence is golden.
“I’ve been happy and even happier in my time off. I’ve had time to spend with my family and now I’m rejuvenated and ready to go.
“I’ve been training non-stop during the pandemic and I’ve been building. All this time between fights is going to be good for me and bad for him. I’ve had nothing but time to progress.
“Whatever he does on July 24, we will have an answer for it. I’m training very hard and my mind is very violent. I’m ready to go.”
SUGARHILL STEWARD, Fury’s Trainer
“The amount of time me and Tyson have had together since joining forces hasn’t changed anything. Our chemistry has always been there. The only thing is, is that over that time, he now has the power to knock a man out with one punch.
“I’m glad he’s added that kind of power to go with his boxing skills and IQ. He now has the one-punch knockout power. He just needs to land that one punch.”
Malik Scott, Wilders Trainer
“Deontay and I have always had a chemistry and a brotherhood between us. Before we talked about moving forward with me as his trainer, I wanted to make sure we had the same chemistry as trainer and fighter that we had with our brotherhood. Our chemistry as fighter and trainer by far passes it. I’m impressed with how he’s adapted.
“I believe that with a fighter like Deontay, who has naturally raw power, combined with my technically sound background, we just match well together.
“Deontay has made the mental adjustments. All I needed was a receptive athlete. He’s already made the adjustments to do whatever I need him to do in that ring.
“I only see this fight going one way. If you just let Fury do what he wants, he’ll do way more than what you want. I have no doubt that Deontay will become the two-time heavyweight champion of the world and it will come by knockout.”

The big men are taking center stage for the undisputed prize. “The Bronze Bomber” and “The Gypsy King”…. Who will reign supreme?

STIL
Wilder:
A wild-swinging, often-sloppy fighter with long arms and fight-changing power in both fists, Wilder likes to set the range with his lead hand and follow it with a variety of power punches. He carries his power late into his fights and is capable of scoring a knockout at any time.
Wut:
A confident, self-assured, and sometimes cocky fighter, Fury has nimble moves and quickness for such a large fighter. He combines good footwork with upper-body movement and ability to box either orthodox or southpaw, keeping opponents off-balance and setting up his own offensive attack.
THEIR FIRST BOUT
Wilder-Fury I:Fury opened the bout with effective movement, keeping Wilder off balance and unable to land anything significant. Wilder was able to land several hard jabs in the 4th Runde, trickling blood from Fury’s nose. Fury spent time in the mid rounds as a southpaw and found success. Wilder scored a knockdown in the 9thround but his follow-up attack left him fatigued, allowed Fury to regain the momentum through the 11thround. The memorable 12thround saw Wilder break through and land a right hand and left hook combination. Fury fell hard to the canvas, flat on his back. He amazingly rose at the count of 9 and was outlanding Wilder as the final round concluded. Alejandro Rochin scored 115-111 Wilder, Robert Tapper scored 114-112 Wut, and Phil Edwards scored 113-113.
STÄRKEN
Wilder:
* Power – The detonation at the end of Wilder’s fists, primarily is right hand, is of nuclear proportions. While his left hand carries substantial pop in it, it is Wilder’s right hand that is seen as maybe the most devastating punch in boxing today. He can end fights by landing his right hand straight down the middle, arcing it over the top, or splitting the guard as an uppercut.
* Conditioning – Early in his career, when he was ending all of his fights within a few rounds, there were question marks if Wilder would fade in the later rounds. He has proven that he can fight equally as hard in the late rounds and capable of a knockout until the final bell.
* Athleticism – Wilder combines a rare blend of size, Geschwindigkeit, Leistung, and athletic ability where is easy to imagine him being dominant in any type of athletic environment.
Wut:
* Movement – For a man with the size and physique that resembles a silverback, Fury moves with the grace and agility of a ballet dancer. He is light on his feet and possesses shifty upperbody movement that is uncanny for someone so large.
* Confidence – Fury is supremely confident in himself and believes in his ability. He shows little or no fear in the ring. His self-assured charismatic nature gives him a psychological advantage.
* Resilient – Whether it was climbing off the canvas against Wilder, overcoming a horrific cut against Wallin, or battling against depression and substance abuse, Fury has shown a toughness and resiliency that are to be admired.
SCHWÄCHEN
Wilder:
* Sloppy – Wilder shows so much faith in his power that he is frequently wild and sloppy with his punches and footwork. He often times looks very amateurish in the ring.
* Trouble With Boxers – Fighters who use good movement and boxing ability trouble Wilder. He struggles setting his feet and is often a step behind. He was trailing Luis Ortiz in both fights and was outclassed for most of his first fight with Fury.
* Chin – The few times that Wilder was seriously chin-checked, he showed some flaws in his durability. Ortiz had him badly hurt and close to a knockout loss.
Wut:
* Distractions – Fury is loving his new-found fame and talking WWE and MMA. He split with his trainer Ben Davidson and is calling his own shots. Fury also has spells in the ring where he loses focus and he has found himself on the canvas more than once during a lapse in concentration.
* Personal Life – It is well-documented Fury’s past personal demons with depression and substance abuse, along with a weight gain to over 400 lbs. While his triumphs over those demons is admirable, the lasting physical effects cannot be denied.
* Skin– It’s only been five months since Fury suffered a terrible gash over his right eye against Otto Wallin, requiring 47 stitches. While doctors have deemed the cut sufficiently healed, his tender skin could reopen at the most inopportune time.
Letzten Kampf
Wilder: (11/23/19) – Wilder again scored a come-from-behind knockout against Luis Oritz. After being outboxed for the majority of the first six rounds, Wilder set his range against a tiring Ortiz and landed a pulverizing right hand which resulted in a one-punch knockout.
Wut:
(9/14/19) – Fury survived a bloody contest with the undefeated but unknown Otto Wallin. Fury suffered a cut over his right eye in the 3rdround and the blood clearly affected his vision. Despite the impairment, Fury still controlled the action and hurt Wallin several times en route to a decision victory.
3 Die besten Leistungen
Wilder:
* Arthur Pin (1/16/16) – After falling behind early, Wilder took over in the 4thround and started to settle down and control the action. A single right hand in the 9thround sent Szpilka down and unconscious, die 2016 Knockout des Jahres.
* Gold Cup (1/17/15) – Wilder answered questions about his stamina by going the full 12 rounds for the first time in his career and capturing the WBC title in the process. Wilder utilized his long jab and kept Stiverne at bay with his underrated skillset.
* Luis Ortiz (3/3/18) – Wilder survived some scary moments against the oft-avoided Cuban veteran before prevailing by 10thround knockout. Wilder was troubled by Ortiz’s boxing skills early before knocking him down in the 5thround. An Ortiz rally in the 7thhad Wilder seriously hurt but Wilder was able to regroup and score the knockout a few rounds later.
Wut:
* Wladimir Klitschko (11/25/15) – Fury went into Klitschko’s backyard and wrested the unified and lineal heavyweight championships via unanimous decision. While the bout was a cautious affair, Fury was able to outwork Klitschko with superior footwork, Bewegung, and a higher punch output.
* Derek Chisora (11/29/14) – Fury dominated the rematch with his British rival, boxing from a distance, switching between orthodox and southpaw, and punishing his adversary until the corner stopped the fight after 10 one-sided rounds.
* Deontay Wilder (12/1/18) – With the exception of two knockdowns and some curious judging, Fury was in control for most of the bout. He avoided Wilder’s punches and landed effective counters, making Wilder looked confused and off-balance in the process.
Schlüssel zum Sieg
Wilder:
* Utilize his jab and negate Fury’s awkward style
* Keep his power punches short and compact
* Don’t get mesmerized by Fury’s upperbody movement
Wut:
* Change the pace and keep Wilder guessing
* Use lateral movement to keep Wilder from setting his feet
* Do not get cocky against the ropes
FRAGEN
Wilder:
* Can Wilder handle Fury’s unorthodox movement?
* Will Wilder employ a better gameplan?
* Will Wilder become frustrated?
Wut:
* Will Fury try too hard for the knockout?
* Is Fury totally focused on boxing?
* Is his cut eye susceptible to reinjury?
PENECALE VORHERSAGE
Both combatants are exceptional showmen and their respective ring entrances will have the crowd abuzz. The electricity will be at a fever pitch at the opening bell. With their familiarity, there will be less of a feeling out process than their first encounter. Fury will be on his toes moving forward and Wilder will try to time his advances and land counter punches. At the end of the 1st Runde, Fury will taunt Wilder and there will be an exchange of words.
Fury’s constant movement and single punches will trouble Wilder as his counter punches will find mostly empty air. The following rounds will be an exciting game of cat and mouse with the smaller Wilder in the role of the cat, futility trying to corner the larger Wilder.
Wilder will find success with his jab in the 6th und 7throunds and a looping right hand will catch Fury on top of the head, knocking him off balance to the canvas. Fury will rise, wink at his corner, and come bouncing back into action. The excitement will have Wilder swinging wildly and falling to the canvas himself after missing overexaggerated right hand.
With Wilder seemingly arm-weary from his punch output the previous round, Fury will turn southpaw and land several hard right hands, then bounce out of range of any counter punches.
Fury’s movement and higher workrate will carry the action through the championship rounds, leading him again to an apparent lead going into the final round.
The decision this time will be unanimous with Dave Moretti and Glenn Feldman both scoring 115-112 and Steve Weisfeld a shade closer at 114-113, all in favor of “The Gypsy King” Tyson Fury.

Ungeschlagen WBC-Schwergewichts-Champion Wilder & Unbesiegt Lineal Schwergewichts-Champion Fury Platz weg in mit Spannung erwarteten Rematch Taking Place Samstag, Februar 22 in der historischen Mega PPV-Ereignisse von der MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS (Februar 13, 2020) – Der bevorstehende Rückkampf zwischen WBC-Schwergewichts-Champion Deontay “Die Bronze Bomber” Wilder und in gerader Linie Champion Tyson “Der Zigeuner König” Wut ist der größte Kampf Schwergewichts-Titel in der Geschichte.
Buchstäblich.
stehend 6'7″ und 6'9″ beziehungsweise, Wilder und Fury schaffen die größte kombinierte Höhe jemals in einem Kampf um den WBC gesehen, Ring Magazine und in gerader Linie Schwergewichts-Titel, Stehen eine kollektive 13 Füße und 4 Zoll. Der einzige Schwergewichts-Titelkampf “größer,” sozusagen, fand statt in 2007, wenn der 7-Fuß Nikolay Valuev verteidigt seinen WBA-Schwergewichts-Titel gegen den 6'6″ Jameel McCline. Aber noch nie die besten großen Männer so groß gewesen Sport haben wie heute.
Um in der Perspektive, wie groß Wilder und Fury, es ist am besten, sie in das Land der Riesen vergleichen: die NBA. Betrachten Sie die Tatsache, dass bei 6'7″ und in der Nähe von 220 Pfund, Wilder ist die gleiche Größe wie Los Angeles Clippers Small Forward Kawhi Leonard. Wut, inzwischen, fast identisch mit LeBron James in Bezug auf Größe und Gewicht.
Heutzutage, ein Blick auf die Top 10 von irgendwelchen Rankings wählen Sie zeigt, dass die meisten Anwärter wie Super Bowl Champion Tight End Travis Kelce gebaut, wer steht 6'6″ und wiegt rund 250 Pfund.
Wie jeder, der den spannenden ersten Wettbewerb zwischen Wilder und Fury beobachtet wird wissen,, die beiden sind in der Tat Sportler, weit weg von dem Stampf behemoths könnten Sie Männer ihre Messungen erwarten zu sein. Wilder könnte für seine titanic One-Punch Macht bekannt sein, aber er hat eine wirklich dynamische Bewegung im Ring als auch angezeigt. Sehen Sie sich das Band seiner Knockout von Bermane Stiverne und beobachten ihn seitlich Winkel gebunden zu erstellen, bevor seine verheerenden Schüsse Landung, juking wie ein breiter Empfänger im offenen Feld, und Sie können sehen, warum Wilder spielen College-Football in Alabama geträumt, als er in der High School.
Fury nie tun etwas anderes als geträumt Boxen-how können Sie, wenn Sie wurden nach einer Schwergewichts-Legende benannt und in eine Familie in Irland reich an Kämpfen Geschichte geboren. Aber die “Gypsy König” wurde auch mit bemerkenswerter Gewandtheit zu gehen zusammen mit einer Lebensdauer von entwickelten Boxen Sinn geboren, Gleiten Sie den Ring um und mit einem Stil Boxen, die einen im Weltergewicht ziemen würde, kein Power Forward großes Schwergewicht.
Wilder und Wut sind, weil ironisch unterscheidenden, Riesen sind in der Regel nicht dominant in sportlichen Bereichen. Während einige Allzeit gewesen Größen-d.h. die 6'9″ Boston Bruins Verteidiger Zdeno Chara, die eine Sperre für die Hockey Hall of Fame-oft große Männer für sein groß meist nur bekannt sind, und erreichen nicht die Spitze ihres Sports. Und das ist verständlich. überdimensional groß zu sein, ist oft ein Hindernis in so viele Wege wie es ein Vorteil ist,, vor allem, wenn es um Bewegung und Geschicklichkeit. Die NFL größte Spieler, sieben-footer Richard Singh, spielte nur acht Karriere-Spiele, die MLB ist Allzeit größte Spieler, die 6'11” Jon Rauch, war ein Geselle reliever, und Tennis’ 6'10” und 6'11” Wolkenkratzer Ivo Karlovic, John Isner und Rilley Opelka haben keine Majors ihre Namen.
Als Menschen haben größer und stärker im Laufe der Jahre, natürlich, so haben Boxer. Rocky Marciano, Stehen 5'10 ½” und mit einem Gewicht von knapp über 180 Pfund, ein winziger Cruiser nach heutigen Maßstäben wäre. Joe Louis und Muhammad Ali, von vielen als die beiden größten Schwergewichtler aller Zeiten zu sein, und schon gar nicht kleine Kämpfer in ihrer Zeit, stand 6'1 ½” und 6'3″ beziehungsweise. Theoretisch, Louis würde neun Zoll in Reichweite zu Fury aufgeben, deren Flügelspannweite 85″. Es gab Ausreißer in früheren Epochen, natürlich-Jess Willard und Ernie Terrell waren 6'6″ und oben und erfasst Schwergewichts-Titel, aber für Jahrzehnte war es möglich, die Größe eines modernen Cruiser zu sein und nicht nur konkurrieren, sondern eine Auferlegung Figur in der division.
Dinge begann in den späten 80er und 90er Jahren zu ändern, wenn Tony Tucker, Riddick Bowe und Lennox Lewis, ein Trio von 6'6″ heavies Riemen gefangen. Aber die moderne Ära wurde von Vitali und Wladimir Klitschko eingeläutet, die 6'6″ Brüder, die im Wesentlichen die Abteilung für den besseren Teil von einem Jahrzehnt vor Wut unseated Wladimir für die in gerader Linie Krone regiert in 2015.
Box hat seinen Anteil an dem Riesen im Laufe der Jahre hat, von denen viele kurz der Elite-Niveau gefallen. In letzter Zeit, Fans werden die viel gepriesene amerikanische Aussicht Tye Fields erinnern, ein hoch aufragenden 6'8″ Rechtsausleger, der trotz einer großen Menge an Hype, nie für einen WM-Titel gekämpft. Julius “Flammendes Inferno” Lange begann seine Karriere 5-0, und bei 7'1″ mit 90″ reach wie eine Kraft sah man rechnen muss mit, bevor in als einer der Sport berüchtigtsten Gesellen und zuverlässiger Partner Einschwingzeit Sparring.
Wilder und Wut sind eine bemerkenswerte Mischung aus Größe und Athletik und den Trend sind Ruckeln, dass Sie sein können “zu groß” großartig sein. Da die Revanche Nears, es ist spannend oder vielleicht unheimlich auf über die nächste Evolution der Schwergewichtler zu denken, die nach diesen beiden kommen. Es gab eine Zeit, als der große George Foreman, bei 6'3″ und mit einem 78″ erreichen, oder Larry Holmes bei 6'3″ mit einem 81″ erreichen, wurden unter den gewaltigsten physischen Präsenzen zu immer Schritt in dem Ring betrachtet. Aber Wilder und Fury haben einen neuen physikalischen Standard gesetzt. Will NBA-Größe Schwergewichte zur Norm in den kommenden Jahren?
Zumindest für den Moment, Wilder und Wut sind weit von der Normalität. Sie sind kolossal Präsenzen, ja, aber sie sind auch die beiden besten Schwergewichtler der Welt auf dem Höhepunkt ihrer Macht, Suche eines der denkwürdigsten Kämpfe zu verfolgen, und heftig zieht in der jüngeren Geschichte diskutiert.
Wer steht hoch im Februar 22?

The 33-year-old Martin (27-2-1, 24 KOs) became heavyweight champion in January 2016 when he won by TKO against then unbeaten Vyacheslav Glazkov. After losing his title to Anthony Joshua, Martin has won four of his last five fights, with all of his wins coming inside the distance. Ursprünglich aus St. Louis, now living in Las Vegas and currently training in Southern California with Manny Robles, Martin bounced back from a narrow decision defeat to Adam Kownacki in 2018 to earn victories in 2019 against Gregory Corbin in March and Daniel Martz in July.
“It is great to be back on the big stage,” sagte Martin. “Wilder vs. Fury II is the biggest heavyweight fight in a long time and it’s great to be on the PPV. Februar 22 will get me one step closer to my goal of becoming two-time heavyweight champion. Gerald Washington is standing in my way, so it’s my job to go right through him toward my ultimate goal.”
Washington (20-3-1, 13 KOs) is a six-foot-six heavyweight contender who was a former college football standout at the University of Southern California and a U.S. Navy veteran. Born in San Jose, Kalifornien, Washington scored an impressive victory in his last outing, knocking out veteran contender Robert Helenius in July. Washington was unbeaten in his first 19 Profi Kämpfe, before dropping his world title challenge against Deontay Wilder in February 2017.
“This title eliminator is a very big opportunity for me and I’m going to do everything in my power to win on February 22,” sagte, Washington. “I have the right team behind me and the right mindset. I’ve known Martin my whole career and we even spent some time working together in the ring. I’m going to be at my best and I expect the same from him. It’s an honor to be a part of an event like this. Deontay and Tyson are both characters and I’m glad I can be a part of what’s going to be a great night of boxing on February 22.”
RepresentingSan Juan Zitlaltepec, Distrito Federal, Mexiko, Navarrete (30-1, 26 KOs) captured his 122-pound title by defeating Isaac Dogboe in December 2018, and emphatically retained the title by stopping Dogboe in the final round of their rematch in May 2019. The 25-year-old stayed busy after securing the title, scoring stoppage victories in successful title defenses in August, September and most recently in December, when he knocked out Francisco Horta in Mexico. He is boxing’s most active world champion, as the Santisima bout will be his fifth title defense in nine months.
“I am motivated to make my fifth defense in less than a year and especially because I’m proud to be part of a historic card headlined by Wilder vs. Fury II,” said Navarrete. “This is a great opportunity to put on an exhibition for the fans and showcase my talent once again. I’m very grateful to my promoters, Bob Arum and Fernando Beltran, for giving me these opportunities.”
The 23-year-old Santisima (19-2, 16 KOs) Profi wurde in 2013 as a 16-year-old and has not lost a fight since his fourth career contest in 2014. A native of Masbate City, Philippinen, Santisima will ride a 17-fight winning streak into his U.S. debut and his first world title opportunity on February 22. Seine 2019 campaign saw him deliver victories over Alvius Maufani in August and Rene Dacquel in December.
“I really appreciate this opportunity, as this has been my dream since I was a kid,” said Santisima. “Für diesen Kampf, I will train and prepare to become the new champion. I don’t feel any pressure. I will just do my best on fight night to show the world who I am. I heard and read the news that this fight is a mismatch, but I will do my best to give a great fight.”
Towering at nearly six-feet six-inches, Fundora (13-0-1, 9 KOs) has used his height and length, combined with power and aggressiveness, to rack up an unbeaten record since turning pro in 2016. Fighting out of Coachella, Kalifornien, Fundora fought three times in 2019, including TKO victories over then unbeaten fighters Donnie Marshall and Hector Manuel Zepeda. The 22-year-old most recently fought to an exciting split-draw against fellow contender Jamontay Clark in August.
A 2016 Olympian representing his native Sydney, Australien, Lewis (6-0, 4 KOs) was unbeaten in 2019, his first year as a professional. The 26-year-old picked up his first five wins between his debut in March and his U.S. debut in November where he defeated Alexis Gaytan. Zuletzt, Lewis knocked out then unbeaten Rivo Kundimang in December.

LOS ANGELES (Januar 28, 2020) – Unbeaten WBC Heavyweight World ChampionDeontay “Die Bronze Bomber” Wilder and undefeated lineal heavyweight championTyson “Der Zigeuner König” Wut continued their war of words at a special attraction press event on Saturday at FOX Studios in Los Angeles, as they near their highly anticipated showdown taking place Saturday, Februar 22 in einem historischen, joint FOX Sports PPV & ESPN+ PPV from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Tickets für die Veranstaltung sind ab sofort gültig und können erworben werden www.mgmgrand.com oder www.axs.com. Die Veranstaltung wird von BombZquad Promotions gefördert, TGB Promotions, Top Rank und Frank Warren Queensberry Promotions. Ein Premier Boxing Champion Präsentation.
The two gargantuan heavyweights traded words and shared updates on training camp leading up to one of the most heavily awaited fights in recent memory. A large media contingent was on hand to watch the undefeated titans square off once again, less than one month before they will finally meet in the ring to settle the score, 14 months after their unforgettable first clash.
Here is what the fighters had to say Saturday in Los Angeles:
Deontay Wilder
“Things are going amazing. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my life. To come from where I come from, it’s amazing to be here. When you get a happy Deontay Wilder in training camp, you can definitely expect great things from me. Das ist,’ what I’m going to give you.
“We haven’t seen his power displayed like he’s been talking about. It hasn’t been continuous, like mine. I think he has pillows as fists. That’s what I felt in our last fight.
“With the strategies that he’s talking about, I don’t really know how to take it. I don’t know if he’s trying to throw me off my game by saying he’s going to knock me out. But it’s exciting to hear and I’m looking forward to February 22.
“Everything on his body is a target, not just his cut. Everything that is permissible for me to hit, I’m going to hit it.
“When you fight someone like me, it’s a mistake to tinker around with your training camp. I’m unpredictable in that ring. When you have too many opinions and too many people who think they have the remedy, it usually backfires.
“I think this win will be more special than the others. Because of the history that we have, with that controversial draw. I consider Tyson a brother of this era, especially in the heavyweight division. The other fighters don’t want to let themselves loose and have fun. We’re both able to enjoy what we do day after day. Because when the bell rings, alles passieren kann.
“Fighting a guy like Fury, you have to be careful. Time goes by so fast in the ring. You’re trying to do everything that you prepared for. With what he brings to the table with his boxing skills, you have to have some awareness of the clock. But with my power, it’s his job to really watch the clock and try to avoid me for 36 Minuten.
“We both have to come in like we did the first fight, with our hearts on our sleeves and the warrior mentality that we always bring. When you get to this point, the scenery itself makes for a great fight. We all know when I come to fight, I don’t play around. We can play around here today, but we’re going to have that killer mentality in the ring.”
TYSON FURY
“I’m born ready. I’m feeling good in training camp. Everything has been going really well. There’s no injuries or excuses. It’s all dedication and sacrifice, one day after another.
“The first fight I wanted to go in there and out box him. It didn’t work. No matter what people say, I didn’t win. I count a draw as a loss.
“We’re giant heavyweights. I’ve had 20 Knockouts, so I’m very capable of knocking people out. When you underestimate someone else’s power, you usually end up unstuck. Whether I’m a great puncher or not, I don’t believe anybody else can match me with heart and determination. I’m going to put my iron will on Deontay Wilder.
“I felt that I needed to get an edge in this fight. It’s not personal with me and my trainers, cutmen and nutritionists. It’s business. If I think someone else is going to improve my business, I’ll do it.
“How do you beat a massive puncher? You have to back him up. He gets massive leverage in those long arms while coming forward. I have to put him on the back foot and make him absorb some of my power.
“I’m the Gypsy King. There’s only been one and there’s only likely to be one going forward. That’s one belt that Deontay Wilder can’t ever win.
“He had a great performance against Ortiz. He did what he was supposed to do. He knocks guys out. He was relaxed and calm under the pressure. I was impressed. Not by the knockout, but by the way he was conducting himself under pressure.
“I’m always real. Deontay Wilder has knocked out 43 opponents in a row. Even if I hate this guy, I respect that. He has amazing power and his name is up there with all-time greats. He’s a great puncher who gets the job done.”

Wilder vs. Fury II will come 14 months after their thrilling first fight that saw Wilder retain the title via split draw, after Fury miraculously rose from a 12thround knockdown to finish the fight.

The charismatic stars put their magnetic personalities on display at the press conference, each laying claim to a rightful victory in their first contest, while also declaring their intent on finishing the rematch with an emphatic knockout victory. Here is what the press conference participants had to say Monday from The Novo by Microsoft at L.A. Live-:
Deontay Wilder
“It’s great to be back for another big event. This is the biggest title fight of this era for sure and I can’t wait. I’m always in my element. I’m always in the zone. Right now I just can’t wait for February 22.
“My body feels like its walking into the sixth week of camp instead of the third week. It’s been amazing to have the quick turnaround after the Ortiz fight in November. Ich komme in Form. I put shape on top of shape and it’s allowed me to prepare even harder for Fury.
“We all know in rematches I’m always sharp because I’ve been in there before and I know what my opponent is capable of doing and what they plan on doing. I’m prepared more than ever for this fight.
“I knocked him out the first time we fought. I told him two years ago I was going to baptize him. Rising up is part of the baptism. But this a different story. This is unfinished business. Because he’s in WWE I’m going to make sure he gets knocked out of the ring, I might even come down with a flying elbow from the top rope.
“Fury not wanting the rematch me immediately definitely made this fight bigger. We had two warmups. I had a lot more dangerous road than he had though. He played it safe, while I went to the mountain top and climbed it. I’m building for my legacy.
“If he beat me, then why all the new trainers? Every day it changes. Firing and hiring. He wants to talk about being out of shape the first time, aber er gut in Form war,. He spent 100,000 pounds on all those camps. I still to this day have the same people with me and I don’t need to change it.
“When you’re facing power there’s no way around it. You can’t prepare for that. You just have to hope that when it lands, it doesn’t do that much damage. He doesn’t even know how he got on the ground or how he got up in the first fight. He’s been dealing with feeling ever since the end of the first fight.
“I’m going to do exactly what I said I would do. Ich werde ihn ausknocken. I’m the lion. I’m the king of the jungle. I’m going to rip his head off his body. Everyone sit tight and buckle up. It’s going to be a fun ride on the way to giving everyone the best fight you’ve seen in your lives.
“This is a major fight for the public and everyone should be excited. It doesn’t’ get any better than this. Two giants and two champions, putting it all on the line for everyone’s entertainment. We’re leaving it all in the ring to see who is the king.
“There’s so many things that go through my head as I take my time to adjust and time my opponent’s movements. I’m building the data I need to set him up for that perfect punch. There’s a lot of things that come with skills. Not just the average fundamentals. There are a lot of different things and that’s what makes boxing what it is. My ring IQ is very high and that’s how I set them up. I know everything he wants to do. Er gab mir 100% of him already.
“He believes in his heart that he’ll knock me out. I always teach people to speak it, believe it and receive it. The magic of it all is in the belief. Though he’s saying those things, I don’t feel in his energy that he believes that. I feel like he’s nervous because of what happened the first time.
“I just learned from the first fight that I need to be calmer. I’m going to be a lot more patient in this fight, just like in the second Luis Ortiz fight. The object of boxing is to win, not just to win rounds. And I win in devastating fashion.”
TYSON FURY
“The consensus is either he knocks me out, or I win on points. Usually when people have that opinion, it goes the opposite way around. Expect him to box and me to be looking for the knockout.
“He thinks I’m going to come out herky-jerky with my famous style, but I want him to meet me in the center of the ring and have a slugfest, best man wins. I didn’t have the gas to finish him in the last fight, but this time I can turn that screwdriver until he’s gone. Let’s make it a Marvin Hagler vs. Tommy Hearns type of fight. I’ll meet you Inthe middle of the ring on February 22. Just watch out for the right hand, because you’re going to sleep in two rounds.
“We finally have the rematch and I can’t remember a bigger heavyweight fight in a long time. Maybe Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson was the last big one like this and that was another U.S. vs. U.K. Showdown.
“Deontay Wilder hasn’t been returning my calls or messages since I beat him last time. He’s trying to keep his distance. He didn’t want to be around me so I can get in his head. But I don’t think you can really get in anyone’s head. At the end of the end of the day, it’s just talk. It doesn’t really matter what we say. It matters what happens on February 22.
“What’s going to happen in this fight is that I’m going to get what I rightfully won last time. I’m going to get the green belt and keep my lineal title. And if he wants to rematch me after, I’ll beat him again. I’ve already beat him once, and I know I can beat him three times in a row.
“Ich werde gewinnen, that’s what I do. Deontay Wilder can make all the excuses he wants to make. Everyone on his team can tell him he won that fight, but as a fighting man, you know when you win and lose a fight. I’m going to go out there give him a boxing lesson and knock him out.
“You’re never a finished article, you can always improve. I like to keep freshening things up every now and again. I don’t make excuses. I won fair and square and we get to do it again. I’m ready for a fight today.
“I’m the best of my era and I took that title from Wladimir Klitschko. Nobody disputed he was the best and I took that from him, until someone beats me, that’s my title.
“He’s going to try to and the right hand. If I’m stupid enough to get hit with it, I deserve to lose. I hit the floor twice in the first fight, but it’s all about how you respond, I’m a fighting man. If he can’t finish me, I’m going to eat him up.
“I’m looking for a knockout. That’s why I hired Sugarhill. He gets you to sit down on that big right hand. Das ist, was ich suche. There’s the game plan. If I wasn’t looking for a knockout, I would have sharpened up what I did in the last fight. I’m not coming for that. I’m looking for my 21st schlagen.
“When I get him in there again, I’m going to make him feel the fury. I’ve never been as sure of anything in my whole life. As sure as I was this morning putting this suit on. 100 percent he can’t win He’s got a puncher’s chance like anyone else. I’m much sharper and more fit now. I’m ready to rumble right now. I hope he train hard and goes to bed sleeping thinking about me.”
TOM BROWN, Präsident der TGB Promotions
“Februar 22, an der MGM Grand Garden Arena, it’s going to be bombs away. We have two superstars here. The best two heavyweights in the world. Both fighters are going to show a lot of passion at this press conference and all the way leading up to this fight because there is so much at stake.
“These are the best in boxing. There is nothing like a big heavyweight championship fight. We have the undefeated hardest punching, the most feared heavyweight in the world and I believe one of the all-time great heavyweights in Deontay Wilder.
“There is a reason Fury and his team didn’t want the immediate rematch right after the first fight. He’s taken a couple of tune-up fights instead because he felt that power on December 1. That’s not going to change this time, he can just ask Luis Ortiz.
I was lucky enough to promote the first fight and I believe we have something special in this rematch. I look forward to a fantastic fight on February 22 and we’ll see everyone there.”
TODD DUBOEF, President of Top Rank
“We talk about boxing having a renaissance, but it’s really about the heavyweight division. That’s what is going to create that renaissance more than anything right now.
“Tyson is so true, so gritty and he backs it up with everything he does. When you combine it with Deontay Wilder, you have two great personalities. This is really the beginning of the next super heavyweight run for the sport of boxing.”
SUGARHILL STEWARD, Fury’s Trainer
“This fight here is one of those fights that you don’t want to miss. The first one was one not to miss as well and I’m sure you all watched the replay. You have two great champions here going at each other. Both fighters left the ring still undefeated last time and still wanting to settle the store. Februar 22, the score will be settled.
“The heavyweight division is still the biggest and most powerful division in boxing. It always will be. Everyone wants to see the fighters throwing the big blows. Wilder is one of the hardest hitters in history and Tyson is one of the best boxers. I’m happy to be training. with Tyson Fury. It’s been about 10 years since we trained together. He trained with me and Emanuel Steward and I’m here to complete what Emmanuel started.”
Despite rumors surrounding it for
years, professional boxing is still alive, and it’s still far in front of MMA
judged by public interest and the prize money. One of the reasons for that are
heavyweights, especially Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury and a bit less Anthony
Joshua who just avenged the only loss of his career. Immer noch, there is no doubt
that Wilder and Fury are the cream of the crop, and their fight in 2020 will
decide who is the king of the most popular division.
We won’t have to wait much for the dream
match, as the contract is signed for February 22nd, as the fight will take in
Las Vegas, probably in MGM grand where Fury made his impressive American debut,
destroying Tom Schwartz in June 2019. Wilder also loves the place, since he
became a champion there, defeating Bermane Stiverne and he recently defended
the title against Ortiz. But what makes their second bout as exciting asRPG Sex Games, is
that no one is a clear favorite.
The thing is Wilder and Fury are
extremely different fighters. Fury is in the best shape of his career recently,
and when it comes to boxing skills, he is far ahead of Wilder. As demonstrated
by their first meeting, Fury is not a one-trick pony as he knows how to change
pace and attack his opponent with both hands and in different ways. He can
punch, but he is far from being impatient. He is the reason why no one believes
that his match against the American will end early. Even on his bad day, Fury
can withstand almost anything and knows how to overturn the match. As for the
Wilder, he is a whole different story. He started boxing very late, and during
his career, he was doubted even by experts that claimed he is a contender at
best. There is no doubt about it – Wilder is the one with the ultimate power.
Give him a chance to land a solid punch, and that is probably it for the night.
That alone is what made him come out of the match with Fury undefeated, rocking
him twice. Aber, Fury is the first opponent that was able to get up after such
devastating shots, even though that took away his victory.
It’s hard to predict the winner as it’s much easier to make a list of excellentAndroid Sex Games. What we can predict is that this fight will highly unlikely be finished in early rounds, as it is highly unlikely that Wilder will win if he doesn’t drop Fury a few times. Judged by that, Fury looks like an early favorite in this one, but when you have a strong puncher like Wilder, it’s almost impossible not to let him land a single devastating punch in all 12 Runde. If you are neutral and want to see a good fight, this is the one you don’t want to miss!
