There’s no doubt that the Philippines loves its boxing.
But it isn’t often that the nation’s boxing fandom shows much interest in the heavyweight class or in fighters outside of the ASEAN countries. That said, the Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury rematch is a clear exception.
The heavily anticipated sequel has been generating buzz since the first fight ended in a controversial draw back in December 2018, despite the stronger Wilder putting Fury on the canvas twice during their 12-round title fight.
This time around, with a third fight practically guaranteed thanks to an immediate rematch clause, there is no need for any scoring shenanigans to ruin an otherwise epic battle, which this fight promises to be.
After all, Wilder, nicknamed the Bronze Bomber, has historic power in his right hand, with many in the boxing community of the opinion that he’s the hardest puncher in history. While he won’t regale the audience with swift feet and quick hands like the legendary Manny Pacquiao (he’s not the Pac Man, he’s the Black Man, after all), Wilder brings undeniable raw power to the ring.
Meanwhile, Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury – is the most polarizing talent in the sport, authoring one of the great championship upsets in history when he took away Wladimir Klitschko’s belts in 2015 before succumbing to the overwhelming burden – and price – of instant global fame. But Fury is back, and he looks to be as fierce and stone cold as he ever was.
