After confirming that Tyson Fury and his camp got infected with the coronavirus, the trilogy between the WBC heavyweight champion and Deontay Wilder was moved from July 24 to October 9.
The heavyweight showdown was a good kick start to pave the way for the Pacquiao-Spence in August, but now it is the other way around.
Boxing fans will shift their full attention to the last bout that will take place on August 21.
Top Rank Boxing released the news of the rescheduling of the third mega-fight between Wilder and Fury.
Their first face-off ended in controversy, while the rematch saw Fury dominating Wilder with a seventh-round TKO to snatch the belt and dealt the American’s first professional defeat.
Since then, Wilder chose his rematch clause.
However, the fight was disrupted for many reasons until a judge order Fury to fight Wilder that, on the other hand, halted the supposed undisputed match between Fury and unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
