Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury: What date is the fight, what TV channel is it on and what is our prediction?





















What is it?









Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury, WBC American champion vs British lineal champion, in a world heavyweight clash. Both fighters go into the fight unbeaten in their combined 67 professional bouts.

















When is it?





Saturda, December 1, 2018.













Where is it?





Staples Center (Los Angeles).













Despite the fight being announced in mid-August, it took until the end of September for confirmation of the host venue, with Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Convention Centre the other possibility.













Wilder has yet to feature at the Staples Center during his 40-fight career, while Fury’s only previous appearance across the pond came at Madison Square Garden, New York City, where he defeated American Steve Cunningham in 2013, lifting himself off the canvas in arguably his most exciting fight yet to record a seventh round KO.













In addition to the NHL’s LA Kings, the 21,000-capacity multi-purpose arena is home to the NBA’s LA Lakers and LA Clippers, and has previously hosted boxing hall of famers such as Oscar De La Hoya, Vitali Klitschko and Lennox Lewis.













What TV channel will it be on?





In the UK, the fight will be aired live on BT Sport Box Office , which is available across BT, Sky and Virgin Media. Paying viewers will be able to watch the fight on the BT Sport website.













In the US, Showtime will be broadcasting the event, likewise on their pay-per-view platform, with more information on their coverage here.













What time is the fight likely to start?





As always, these big fights are at the mercy of the undercard and how long the build-up takes. But we expect it to begin at 5am GMT on Sunday December 2.













What is the latest news?





Tyson Fury has started his training camp in the mountains of Big Bear, California. He has been pictured sparring with British Olympic silver medallist Joe Joyce, who is signed to David Haye’s promotional company.













Deontay Wilder has been forced to apologise after reportedly breaking the jaw of a mascot on live TV. The American has offered a ticket to the injured mascot for December 1.
