It's one of the most anticipated fights of 2022, as WBC Heavyweight champ Tyson Fury returns to England Saturday night to battle countryman and #1 contender Dillian Whyte in a 12 round showdown at famed Wembley Stadium. And, with over 90,000 scheduled to attend and millions more watching on PPV around the globe, we're ready to preview it on the "Big Fight Weekend Preview."
Host T.J. Rives is joined by our insider/partner on BigFightWeekend.com, Dan Rafael, who has tremendous insight on what Big Time Heavyweight title bouts at Wembley Stadium are like. This, as he previously covered the Anthony Joshua-Wladimir Klitscko world title bout in 2017.
But, now Tyson Fury, aka 'The Gypsy King" is ready to defend his portion of the crown after his conquering wins over American Deontay Wilder including a TKO victory last October in Las Vegas. Standing in the way is the top WBC challenger, Dillian Whyte. Whyte doesn't have Fury's caliber of victories, but does have a big punch.
Now, we'll see if he can deliver it or will it be a coronation return for Fury?
Plus, T.J. is joined by special guests with their insight, Sean of TopHeavyweights.com and of course, David Payne, "the Boxing Writer" from England. Both analysts give their perspective on the magnitude of the bout and what they believe happens on Saturday night. David also gives us a feel on whether the British fans are already jacked up for this one or is it still building?
Then, T.J. and Dan close out with their analysis and predictions on a winner.
