Who will come out swinging?
Dillian Whyte, who currently holds the WBC interim title, is challenging Tyson Fury for the chance to become WBC Heavyweight Champion.
This comes after a fiery rematch win over Alexander Povetkin last March, the highlights of which can be viewed here. After three rounds, Whyte's fabled left hook made its first pivotal appearance, shaking up Potevkin's amazing evasive manouevres. From that point onwards, it seemed that victory was in sight. Whyte has proven to be a wild card, but has come along in great strides throughout his career in boxing.
All the while, Fury fought fire with fire in his October match against Deontay Wilder, gradually growing more aggressive in his tactics and keeping the youngster on the back foot. The atmosphere in Las Vegas was electric as Wilder fought to stay upright against the weight of Tyson's jabs.
With the breadth of experience Fury has at his heels, this challenge comes in a period of his career that has seen Fury's consistency solidify his claim to the Heavyweight Title. This clash could prove to be about more than just these two boxers, however. Whoever takes this title could spark the flame for many a fight in the future, like Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua's world title fight this year, defending WBA, IBF and WBO world belts.
Whichever way the fight goes, it's sure to be a slammer. Don't miss out on the chance to capture this moment in history.
