Former heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder has doubled down on claims that Tyson Fury CHEATED against him.
After Wilder and Fury stunned the boxing world with their electrifying majority draw in the first fight, Fury knocked the American off of his throne in the rematch.
In wake of the contest, there were allegations made that Fury had tampered with his gloves in order to gain an advantage. Those allegations were, of course, baseless.
With Wilder once again being comprehensively beaten by Fury the third time the pair took to the ring, you’d have thought that he’d drop all of the cheating nonsense.
However, in a new interview, Wilder has once again reaffirmed his belief that Fury gave himself an unfair advantage when the pair went toe-to-toe in the ring.
The boxing world is excited by the return of Deontay Wilder and hugely intrigued to see who he fights next. These comments will do him no favours on that front.
Even having been beaten by Fury, the general consensus is that Wilder is within the top four heavyweights on the planet. He ought to embrace that.
