The 30 year-old eased through every round against the German-Italian to take a convincing points win at Windsor Park in Belfast.
After the verdict, Wilder took to the ring to square-up to Fury before both men stated the WBC heavyweight title clash was a done deal.
Not only Fury is convinced the contest will go down in the boxing capital of Nevada, some of Wilder’s team and those close to the fight have told WBN the fight will happen at the T-Mobile Arena, probably in November.
The fight will be broadcast on Showtime PPV in the United States and on BT Sport Box Office in the UK.
