Fury-Wilder II is a go.

The much-anticipated Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder rematch is scheduled to take place Feb. 22, 2020, in Las Vegas, Fury announced during an appearance on ESPN's "Now or Never" Friday.

"The rematch is signed," Fury said. "... If we both get through our next fights, then we're gonna fight February 22nd."

Fury and Wilder first squared off for the heavyweight title in Los Angeles last December. After going the full 12 rounds, the judges scored the fight a draw in a controversial decision.

Before they step into the ring, however, both men have to take care of some other business. Fury (28-0-1) is set to fight Sweden's Otto Wallin in Las Vegas on Sept. 14, while Wilder (41-0-1) is moving toward a November rematch with Luis Ortiz, Jake Donovan of BoxingScene.com reported Wednesday.
