Lineal boxing heavyweight champion of the world Tyson Fury is currently in Las Vegas in preparation for his anticipated fight against Swedish Champion Otto Wallin on Saturday.

Saturday night's fight is a major opportunity for Fury to prove his dominance in the heavyweight pision. Wallin, however, will look to make his name known.

Fury, who last time when he was in the United States wore the colours of the American flag, will this time be headlining on Mexican Independence Day, a significant date in the calendar for Las Vegas. He previously promised something valuable for the event.

This is the fifth fight into Fury's comeback after a two-and-a-half-year absence while he battled mental health issues and suicidal tendencies. The Brit was able to turn his biggest downfall into his strongest aspect as he is currently an advocate for people with mental health issues.

The brilliant Fury after defeating Wladimir Klitschko in Germany as his mental health abnormalities began to fathom. he ballooned to 10-plus stone over his healthy weight but, over the past year, he has re-emerged.

The way he rose off the canvas in the final round of his draw with Wilder, becoming the first of 41 men to survive a knockout against the American, is still memorable and is looking for a rematch against the American knockout artist in 2019.

However Former Unified Heavyweight Champion, Anthony Joshua dismissed Wallin's credibility, and Fury for selecting him, by saying: "I fought Wallin as an amateur. [Wilder and Fury] are the cream of the crop and shouldn't be fighting those type of people. I can't fight Wallin, I don't think I can ever fight lower-tier heavyweights."
