Wilder, Fury Vow To Settle Rematch With A Knockout
Heavyweights Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury have both promised knockouts to avoid going to the judges’ scorecards when they meet again on Feb. 22 in Las Vegas with Wilder’s WBC world title on the line.
The first meeting between the pair in December 2018 ended in a controversial split-decision draw after 12 explosive rounds, a result that satisfied neither fighter but left both with their undefeated records intact.
Speaking at a news conference in Los Angeles, Fury (29-0-1) said he would down Wilder (42-0-1) in two rounds, while the champ said that Fury would not be able to withstand his powerful right hand this time around.
“This is unfinished business that I will finish. I’m going to knock him out,” Wilder said. “I’m the lion, I’m the king of the jungle, and come February 22nd, I’m gonna rip his head off his body.”
After proving an elusive target in their first fight, Fury promised to stand toe to toe with Wilder in the rematch.
“I’ll meet you, Deontay, in the middle of the ring … I won’t be running, you won’t have to look anywhere for me,” he said.
“Just watch out for the right hand because you’re going to sleep in two rounds,” said Fury, who has won 20 of his fights by knockout. “Two. 100%.”
Likening their trans-Atlantic showdown to when Briton Lennox Lewis defeated American Mike Tyson in June 2002, Fury said he expected fireworks when the two meet again.
“To beat Tyson Fury, you have to nail him to the canvas. And that’s what this little skinny-legs super-noodle will have to do – nail me to the canvas,” he said of the tall and slender Wilder, whose body more resembles that of a basketball power forward than a traditional heavyweight boxer.
“And if he can’t do that, I’m going to eat him up.” (Reuters)

EeZee Tee Refutes Apostle Anselm Madubuko’s Claims, Reaffirms Transparency and Catalogue Ownership
The label emphasized that the artists are entitled only to royalties from the catalogue, which have been transparently accounted for.
“No funds were diverted by EeZee Conceptz. This entire campaign against the EeZee Tee is an orchestrated attempt to forcefully claim ownership of the music catalogue we fully funded and produced. This is a clear violation of the contract terms that both parties agreed to,” the statement added.
“Contrary to the Apostle’s claims, I personally called him several times, sent messages, and even visited his house twice in an effort to reschedule the meeting for appointing new auditors. He assured me he would revert, but to date, I have received no response,” said EeZee Tee, CEO of EeZee Conceptz.
The label further revealed that it endured undue hardship during the dispute, including the nine-day detention of its CEO in Ilorin, during which all personal and corporate accounts were frozen.
However, after extensive investigations into its books, no evidence of financial misconduct was found.
“Despite the ordeal I faced, including losing access to my family and business operations during my detention, our records were thoroughly investigated, and no wrongdoing was discovered. This is a testament to the transparency and integrity with which EeZee Conceptz operates,” the EeZee Tee stated.
EeZee Conceptz expressed disappointment in what it described as Apostle Madubuko’s biased handling of the mediation process.
“When men of God are entrusted with resolving conflicts, they must approach the matter with fairness, impartiality, and a commitment to truth.
The label cited examples from the first mediation meeting, where it raised issues of one of the artists boycotting scheduled events and diverting funds to personal accounts in breach of her contract. According to EeZee Conceptz, the Apostle failed to address these breaches, further questioning the neutrality of the process.
Despite the ongoing challenges, EeZee Conceptz reiterated its commitment to fairness, integrity, and adherence to contractual agreements.
Background
The dispute between EeZee Conceptz and Mercy Chinwo has gained significant public attention, centered around claims of unpaid royalties, fund diversion, and disagreements over the ownership of master rights.
The dispute has seen several failed mediation attempts, including multiple sessions where the focus shifted to the demand for master rights. EeZee Conceptz has maintained that it owns the catalogue in perpetuity and is only obligated to pay royalties to the artist under the terms of their agreement.
