Deontay Wilder altered how he has handled virtually everything during the buildup toward his third fight against Tyson Fury on Saturday night. The former WBC heavyweight champion limited the amount of time he has spent promoting their ESPN/FOX Sports per-per-view event because those countless commitments were “draining” before their rematch in February 2020. Wilder hasn’t

LAS VEGAS – Deontay Wilder promised a redemptive performance Saturday night that’ll make him a two-time WBC heavyweight champion. The Alabama-based knockout artist mentioned the word “redemption” during a press conference Wednesday at MGM Grand Garden Arena. After a five-year reign as champion and 10 title defenses, though, Wilder apparently doesn’t feel as though he

LAS VEGAS – Tyson Fury held his tongue for all of about three seconds Tuesday. After telling Top Rank’s Crystina Poncher that he hadn’t come to T-Mobile Arena to disparage Deontay Wilder, the gigantic British showman unloaded a barrage of insults on his rival heavyweight. Fury and Wilder never appeared together at their “grand arrivals”

WBC and lineal heavyweight world champion Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury and former heavyweight world champion Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder made their grand arrivals in Las Vegas Tuesday evening to officially kick off fight week for their highly anticipated heavyweight title trilogy showdown taking place this Saturday, October 9 live on ESPN+ PPV and

Armando Torres returns to his favorite venue, though matched aggressively versus a contender nearly half his age. The 40-year-old junior flyweight gatekeeper from Mexico City faces 21-year-old countryman Axel ‘El Mini’ Aragon Vega in a battle of former title challengers. Their scheduled ten-round regional title fight headlines the fall season premiere of Boxeo Telemundo, which

After unanimously decisioning Anthony Joshua to win the WBO, WBA, IBF and IBO titles, Oleksandr Usyk is now a power player in the sport’s glamour division.  Usyk disrupted Joshua’s undisputed heavyweight championship plans with a definitive win over the British boxer, and Joshua’s superfight with WBC champion Tyson Fury is off for the time being.

It’s four days before a Deontay Wilder fight. (photo by Ryan Hafey) But it doesn’t sound the same. By this point in the fight-selling process the “Bronze Bomber” has usually issued an inappropriately chilling threat, suggested rendering an opponent lifeless wouldn’t cause him to lose sleep, or at the very least proclaimed himself well on

Find out why professionals are using BoxBandz Former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder was not shocked by last month’s big occurrence, when Anthony Joshua suffered a twelve round unanimous decision loss to Oleksandr Usyk, who walked away with the WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO world titles. Wilder is facing WBC champion Tyson Fury on Saturday night at T-Mobile

It’ll cost consumers in the United States the same amount to purchase the third Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder heavyweight title fight through traditional pay-per-view providers as it did for their rematch.

You never quite know where you might run into Malik Scott. On a Monday afternoon, he’s at Barnes and Noble with his partner Nancy Ramirez, buying a thriller by Joseph Finder. Later that same day, he’s at the library, coffee in hand, listening to opera music. At night, he enjoys a cigar as he helps

Robeisy Ramirez had just pushed his pro record past the .500 mark on the eve of the second fight between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. The two-time Olympic Gold medalist for Cuba—now based out of the greater Tampa area—is now part of the show for the heavyweight trilogy clash, with a win pushing his own

THE BIGGEST FIGHT in British heavyweight history, for the time being at least, went up in a puff of Ukrainian smoke at the home of Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday night. Oleksandr Usyk put out the Anthony Joshua fire following the fireworks that flew high above the High Road but, in truth, the pre-fight pyrotechnics set

Deontay Wilder doesn’t believe that Tyson Fury actually contracted COVID-19 before their third fight was postponed nearly three months ago. Fury assured BoxingScene.com during a recent interview that he indeed tested positive for the coronavirus toward the end of an intense training camp for another WBC heavyweight title fight with Wilder that was supposed to

Dillian Whyte’s willingness to fight Otto Wallin wasn’t surprising to Wallin’s promoter. Whyte has long demonstrated that he’ll fight heavyweights others might view as high-risk, low-reward propositions. Dmitriy Salita still thinks Whyte made a mistake by choosing the Swedish southpaw as his opponent for a 12-round main event October 30 at O2 Arena in London.

Chris Eubank Jr says that Roy Jones Jr. is the first trainer who has taught him to think in the ring, rather than just doing things on instinct.  Eubank has his second fight with Jones in his corner on Saturday at Wembley when he faces Germany’s Anatoli Muratov. They first teamed up during the pandemic,

The president of the World Boxing Council (WBC), Mauricio Sulaiman, have high praise to the recent victory Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk, who last Saturday night, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, captured four heavyweight belts with a twelve round unanimous decision over Anthony Joshua.
