Top Rank Boxing has dropped the official trailer for the highly-awaited rematch between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder and it will get fans pumped.
The heavyweight rivals will meet again on February 22 in Las Vegas for a re-run of their December 2018 showdown that ended in a controversial split draw.
All eyes will be on the pair next month as they clash in “the biggest heavyweight fight within recent history,” as stated in the opening of the official trailer.
Fury and Wilder are both coming off a two-fight winning streak since their first meeting.
‘The Gypsy King’ made quick work of Tom Schwarz in June before surviving Otto Wallin in an all-out war last September.
As for the defending WBC heavyweight champion, his last two title-defences both ended by way of knockout as he eked out a first-round finish of Dominic Breazeale in May before destroying Luiz Ortiz in their November rematch.
Watch the official trailer for the Fury Vs Wilder II in the video below:
Unfinished Business
The British fighter is already in the United States preparing for the rematch as he eyes a knockout win against the American champ, saying he will not get a decision in the US soil.
Looking to settle an unfinished business, Fury said he can’t wait to be crowned as the real champion.
“There’s no more ducking and diving,” the lineal heavyweight champ said (via Give Me Sport).
“The date has been set, and the ‘Bomb Squad’ is about to be securely detonated and the real champion crowned as the world watches on for the most anticipated fight in years.”
“This is unfinished business for me, but come February 22, this dosser will finally get what’s coming to him, and I can’t wait!”

No More Controversy
Wilder, who has 41 knockout wins in 43 professional bouts, has promised there will be no more controversies regarding the outcome of the heavyweight title fight.
“I’m happy and I’m excited that the rematch is finally happening. I want to give the fans what they want to see.”
“I’ve been doing it with my last three outings – Fury, Breazeale and Ortiz.”
“They’ve been spectacular events – from my ring walks where I gather all the energy of the people, to my uniforms that I wear to help spread that energy.”
“Then I give them what they all come for – the knockouts, and my knockouts have been amazing.”
“I proved myself the first time and I’m ready to do it again. It was a very controversial fight.”
“I promise my fans that there won’t be any controversy with this one. I’m going to finish it.”
Who do you think will get the ‘W’ this time? Will there be a new WBC heavyweight champion?
