This is assuming the recently deposed ex-champion opts to enact the rematch clause, as expected. WBC heavyweight title (and Ring Magazine/lineal championship) at stake, 1st defense of Fury. The clause stipulations for this past weekend's second fight between this pair only specified that a third bout (once asked for by the loser, which the now-challenging Wilder needs to do within a month of last Saturday) would need to happen by summer's end, but 8/15 would be a poignant date for the new champ. He celebrates his thirty-second birthday earlier that same week, and putting a cherry on top of this rivalry with a second official victory, to go up 2-0-1 and erase any doubt, would make for a fine three-day-belated present to himself.
What are the ring entrance costumes going to be? I can’t hardly make an informed opinion without that information, now can I?
This is actually the bum squad's greatest challenge, proving he can lug around a 40 pound costume, forget about Fury
Look at us all boldly trekking out together on this limb picking Fury by stoppage. The real VIP's are the ones who picked him by stoppage in fight #2. (and there were a fair number of them...and I wasn't among them; my waffling ass semi-seriously voted for a second draw )
