COVID KO Tyson Fury tests positive for coronavirus with Deontay Wilder trilogy fight OFF and ‘pushed back to October 9’

TYSON FURY has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus meaning his trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder is OFF.

There were reports last night of a Covid-19 outbreak in the Gypsy King's camp.

Tyson Fury's fight with Deontay Wilder is off after he tested positive for coronavirus

But now the WBC heavyweight king has contracted the virus.

Dan Rafael stated Fury does have symptoms and is feeling ill.

The reporter added assistant trainer Andy Lee, featherweight Isaac Lowe and former WBO heavyweight champ Joseph Parker also returned positive test results.

And that guarantees the fight cannot go ahead on July 24 as planned.

A new date is being targeted later in the year with October 9 the likely option with major events in both August and September already in the boxing calendar.

Fury and Wilder drew their first instalment before the British star crushed his American rival in their rematch in 2020.

He was due to head back to Las Vegas for fight No3 two weeks from now but he will need to self-isolate.

It is understood Fury has had his first coronavirus vaccination but not his second jab.

Dis fight jus no wan happen

wahala...which covid again?? or dm just wan delay d fight?

But why now.... I wan see Fury vs Edo Man Fight na....

Fury is a dosser I knew this would happen, don't be surprised if he doesn't fight wilder for the 3rd time, he knows what's in store, imagine after getting through wilder( which I know he won't) then he face AJ. He can't beat wilder this time nor beat AJ....this should tell the whole world AJ is not a dosser, he faces his mandatories without excuses .
Fury cheated on the 2nd fight and all eyes will be on him now....am not surprised the fight was shifted.

I see AJ using JUJU to do this

Watch and see October

Wilder will contact his own Covid

And the fight will be postponed again till MAY 2022

Sense will not kill me

I’m sure I’m not the only boxing lover in this forum that will love to hear this

His gloves were lose, his hands were flapping thereby making his punches to be strong when landed the videos are all over YouTube
