Tyson Fury has vowed to knock Deontay Wilder out in the first round after signing a contract to fight the American for a third time. A third fight with Wilder is now on the cards, with Top Rank Boxing posting a video of Fury signing for the fight in the early hours of Sunday. Fury’s latest contest with Wilder is now set for 24 July, with Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium – the 65,000-capacity home of the NFL’s Raiders – the likely venue. Give him another shoulder injury, another bicep injury, a leg injury … the whole lot. Meanwhile, Joshua has been ordered to defend his WBO heavyweight title against mandatory challenger Oleksandr Usyk after the collapse of his fight against Fury.
