Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury reignite their rivalry in the early hours of Sunday morning in the biggest fight of the modern heavyweight era.

It’s been over a year since the pair’s first bout ended in spectacular and then controversial fashion as Fury somehow rose from the canvas in the 12th round only for the fight to be judged a draw on the scorecards.

The Briton has since chopped and reshuffled his camp, switching trainers and introducing a nutritionist, while also employing a veteran cutman amid fears the gash sustained in his victory over Otto Wallin could reopen.

Wilder, meanwhile, is looking to come into the bout heavier than last time to lessen Fury’s size advantage, however, there's little doubt he will once again be relying on finding the knockout punch against a technically superior boxer.

But before their fight on Saturday night they will reconvene for one final press conference, which you can watch above.
