Tyson Fury's trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder has been pushed back for a second time after the original summer date was cancelled due to the coronavirus crisis.
After the pair fought to a controversial draw in 2018, the Gypsy King won February's Las Vegas rematch in style, knocking Wilder down twice on his way to a seventh-round stoppage.
Just days after the first defeat of his professional career, the Bronze Bomber exercised a clause in his contract for a third and final fight later this year.

That was pencilled in for July 18 until the coronavirus pandemic - and the enforced lockdown in Vegas - caused it to be delayed.
It had been hoped the duo could battle for the WBC world heavyweight title again at the start of October, but promoter Bob Arum expects the fight to be later in the year.
According to Sports Illustrated, the 88-year-old, who promotes Fury in the US, has told the Brit that his showdown with Wilder will not take place until November or December.

When the fight does go ahead, it is almost certain to be held behind closed doors in order to comply with social distancing guidelines, which are likely to still be in place to some extent.
Earlier this week, Arum claimed that Fury's next fight may not even be against Wilder or Anthony Joshua, but insisted it would definitely be held in America.
Speaking to World Boxing News, Arum said: 'It depends on a lot of things. One this is for sure, Fury belongs in the United States. He's built up a tremendous, tremendous audience here.

'If the travel ban is lifted, or is not as stringent, I would bring Fury over here to fight in a less-expensive fight than a Wilder fight. Maybe we could even do the Wilder fight. But somehow we would have to get it financed.
'But for Fury, except for a Joshua fight, any Tyson Fury fight happens in the United States.
'The Joshua fight I could possibly see being in the UK or maybe some Middle East location. But we'll have to see. But again, Joshua still has a contract and obligation to fight Pulev, so how's he going to get around that?'
