Heavyweight title rivals Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder will face off one more time in another huge pay-per-view showdown on Saturday night.
The glittering boxing division has been blown open again following Anthony Joshua’s shock defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
AJ had hoped to face Fury next year to unify the world heavyweight titles but he was outclassed by Usyk and had to give up his belts.
While a rematch between those two looms, it is now time for Fury and Wilder to renew their rivalry.
Fury destroyed Wilder in February 2020 and after much talk, they will now clash in a trilogy bout in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
It promises to be another thrilling night of elite action and here’s how you can catch it…
Fury vs Wilder 2: Date and UK start time
The T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada will host the heavyweight title bout on Saturday, October 9.
The two fighters will make their ring walks at approximately 5am UK time on Sunday, October 10.
With Vegas eight hours behind, that is 9pm on Saturday night local time.
The fight will be for Fury’s WBC and The Ring heavyweight titles and the winner will likely go on to face a unification bout in 2022.

Fury vs Wilder 3: What has been said?
Tyson Fury: “He’s getting seriously smashed to bits. I’ll give him another shoulder injury, another bicep injury, another leg injury.
“One round, you’re going. I have got your soul, your mojo, everything. I own you.
“It was a crazy roller coaster toward this fight. I always say, ‘you’re never fighting someone, until you’re in the ring opposite them’. It wasn’t hard for me to adjust to fighting Deontay Wilder again. It’s what I’m paid to do.
“I hope Deontay brings something different for this fight. He needs to, if we’re facing facts. I hope he brings a challenge.
“The beating from the last fight has had a physical, mental and emotional effect on his life. I was worried about him after the way I beat him. Deontay Wilder is a one-trick pony.
“He’s got great one-punch knockout power. I’m going to run him over like I’m an 18-wheeler. I guarantee he doesn’t go past where he did in the second fight.
“I’m looking for a big knockout straight away. He said all this stuff about bloodshed last time and we all know what happened.”
Deontay Wilder: “I didn’t feel any way about Fury trying to negotiate another fight. We knew we were in the right and we knew they couldn’t run. Silence is golden. I’ve been happy and even happier in my time off.
“I’ve had time to spend with my family and now I’m rejuvenated and ready to go. I’ve been training non-stop during the pandemic and I’ve been building. All this time between fights is going to be good for me and bad for him.
“I’m going be a train. You say a semi-truck, I’m going to run you over with a train, baby.
“Three hundred and 10 [lbs]! You better get your weight up.”
