WATCH: Israel Adesanya reacts to Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3

Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3 will go down in history as one of the greatest heavyweight boxing bouts of all time. The wild fight had a total of 5 knockdowns – 2 for Wilder and 3 for Fury. ‘The Gypsy King’ upped the ante in the 9th round after the fight looked like it might go either way.

A big right hand from Fury in the eleventh round, knocked Wilder out cold. With that Fury put an end to the 3-year-old rivalry with 2 wins and 1 draw. Although Wilder lacked sportsmanship, especially after the fight, he was lauded for exhibiting the heart of a champion.

Elsewhere, UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya who has his own YouTube channel, as is mandatory, shared his live reaction to the fight. Sitting alongside his brother, Adesanya can be seen getting all riled up as the two heavyweights exchanged knockdowns.

As the fight progressed, Adesanya can be seen dozing off (in the middle rounds), even as his brother wakes him up. Following Fury’s knockout in the eleventh round, Izzy and his brother can be seen synchronously clapping, after being amazed at what they had just witnessed.

Izzy then goes on to provide a ‘sub-par’ summary of the fight, whilst hiding his laughter. ‘The Last Stylebender’ is now set to fight Robert Whittaker in a rematch. The fight is expected to take place in February 2022, which will be the second major PPV of 2022 – UFC 271.
