Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury put on a performance for the ages in their trilogy fight at the T-Mobile Arena on the 9th of October.

The wild fight saw umpteen knockdowns before coming to a halt in the eleventh round.

It was ‘The Gypsy King’ Tyson Fury once again who took the W.

The contest was even until the 8th round. In fact, the scorecards had both the boxers at 65-65 after round 7.

Wilder slowly began gassing out after round 8, and Fury began piecing him up. In the 9th and 10th rounds, Fury began battering Wilder. But, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ held on, hoping to unleash his ever-present dagger – right hand.
