Deontay Wilder is determined to get the last word on his fight with Tyson Fury.

“He cheated, he flat out cheated. That wasn’t the best man. That was the coward of a man,” Wilder said. “He got a long reputation of cheating, and this right here is nothing less of him.

In their first fight in 2018, Wilder came in as the undefeated defending WBC heavyweight champion. It ended in a controversial split decision but Fury came back and beat him in seven rounds back in February.
Wilder has attributed his loss to a number of reasons including the weight of his pre-bout costume, fighting injured, Fury opponent putting weights in his gloves and, most recently, claiming that his water was spiked.
Fury addressed the accusations earlier this month saying: “I think he’s lost his marbles!”
