Wladimir Klitschko vs Tyson Fury Fight Preview, Where to Watch, TV Info & Predictions
Heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko will clash with his unbeaten challenger Tyson Fury this Saturday.
Where to Watch, TV Info
The Klitschko vs Fury fight will be held at the Esprit Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany on Nov. 28 at 5:05 p.m. ET, Bleacher Report informed.
Viewers at home can watch the battle via TV through HBO in the U.S., Sky Sports Box Office in the U.K. and RTL in Germany, the outlet noted.
Fight Preview
World Boxing Association, World Boxing Organization, International Boxing Organization and International Boxing Federation champion Klitschko is aiming to win his 28th world title fight, per Sporting Life. He reportedly had 67 battles in his entire career and only lost three of them. Out of his 64 wins, he landed 53 of them via knockout. He was victorious in 22 of his last fights, with the most recent one against Bryant Jennings in April 2015 via a unanimous decision.
On the other hand, Fury remains blemish-free after 24 matches, with 18 of them by way of knockout. He was last seen in February beating Christian Hammer via a stoppage win in the eighth round, per BoxRec.
The two should have met on Oct. 24 but the showdown did not push through because Klitschko sustained a calf injury that time, Sky Sports reported.
Predictions
"Dr. Steelhammer" himself thinks that he is facing a difficult match this Saturday, Boxing Scene noted.
"This time the opponent will be taller, heavier, with very long arms, and he is also younger and has great ambitions. This guy really wants to prove himself in the ring and confirm what he keeps telling everyone, that he's the best in the world," Klitschko said.
It will really be a challenge for the 39-year-old heavyweight champ to take on the 27-year-old opponent.
John Fury, father of Tyson, is confident that his son will be able to capture all Klitschko's crowns when they clash, Fight Hype reported. John even dubbed Tyson as "Wladimir Klitschko's worst nightmare."
Tyson told ESPN that he is going to make the current champion "look an idiot" and "a fool" and be ashamed "in front of his own 60,000 crowd."
However, Klitschko's trainer Johnathon Banks stated that this kind of talks from Tyson will just make him "in trouble," noted Boxing Scene.
"He's talking the talk. I honestly think he's talking like this to get under Wladimir's skin, is it good for him? I don't know. Will it be bad for him in the fight? Yeah it will. We'll see, but I do believe he's in trouble," Banks said.
Can Klitschko defend his titles against the much younger foe?
