Tyson Fury vs Otto Wallin

TV Sat - BT Sport Box Office HD PPV (UK) - ESPN+USA

Set your alarm for 4am fight fans and you better buy that extra EXTRA food and drink cause there's nothing like a Las Vegas fight.

The heavyweight saga continues and could we see another upset sports fans?
 
Yeah totally agree baz this fight makes no sense what so ever its just gonna be about money for sure or are they expecting a massive upset but even wilder couldnt knock him completly out so cant see that happening im afraid :unsure:
 
He's signed up for a £millions TV circus!! his last fight, I thought the ring walk was more exciting than the fight!! Don't think I will bother with this one!!
 
Easy win for fury.

As usual boxing politics.

Boxers ducking each other. All about keeping their reputations in tact.

Never was like this in 80s or 90s.
 
One thing that peeves me off is the top quality boxers ducking each other.

This is not the boxing I grew up on. It's about best fighting each other.
 
Really poor fight.

No doubt the Fury/Wilder fight will be moved back.

No way happening in February with that serious gash Fury has. Will take some time to heal.
 
Not long since watched it that left hook what caused the cut was a crisp shot fair attempt from otto he did try fury didn't look him self as he's used to having easy fights like his last

Ye was good shot.

But wallin was fighting dirty though lol.

Especially try to open the gash up even more.
 
Tyson Fury says he is "ready for war" with Deontay Wilder in February despite concerns the severe cuts suffered in his heavyweight win over Otto Wallin could delay their bout.

Speaking to BBC Sport as he was ushered through the airport in Las Vegas on Sunday, the 31-year British fighter said "just over 40 stitches" were needed for two cuts suffered against Wallin on Saturday.

"I went to the hospital, had a few stitches, went home and had an early night," he said.

"Then I've got up, gone to the casino, won five grand, had a few beers and now I'm going to have a few more beers."Fury sported sunglasses, which hid his stitching, and while his team were keen to get him through security at McCarran International Airport, he stopped for photographs with fans who paid him compliments.

The Manchester-born boxer fought for more than nine rounds while cut at the T-Mobile Arena and received a second cut later in the fight.

The injury prompted promoter Frank Warren to say a proposed 22 February rematch with WBC world heavyweight champion Wilder could be delayed if Fury does not heal adequately.

Asked about a delay, Fury said: "I'm ready for war. I think it was just over 40 stitches inside and out with both the cuts.

"Listen I'm all right. It's boxing. You can't go swimming and not get wet. It's the fight game."

Fury's promoters in the US have since confirmed he had 47 stitches in all following the bout, in which Wallin took Fury to 12 rounds despite being widely written off beforehand.

In just his fifth fight back since returning to the sport, Fury adapted tactically during the fight.

Asked if such a test would further improve him before any Wilder meeting, he replied: "100% - 12 rounds will bring me on to the next fight.

"I thought it was tough. He's a tough, durable guy Wallin.

"We put on a good show for the Mexican fans and we got a massive audience, I was very surprised."
 
Lets just hope he puts a better show against Wilder.

I believe the lesser weight impacted him. Seemed he didnt have much power in his shots.
