Speaking of his relationship with Wider, Fury said, “I wouldn’t say we’re friends because he’s tried to knock me face in and I’ve tried to do the same to him. But We’ve been good for each other over the years. And this is a fulfilled promise to each other.

Tyson Fury talks Wilder Vs Joshua

Fury couldn’t stop! He went on about Wilder. He said, “I’ve got to give it to Wilder! He’s got the balls. He wanted to fight the best. While I was outside the ring retired, he tried to fight Joshua twice. It was going on for ages, we all know that. They offered eighty million!”

Fury speaking about this fight deal between Joshua and Wilder gave reasons why it didn’t fall through. He said, “Eighty million for a 2 fight deal. And they refused it. I don’t think they’re gonna get any big paydays any bigger than that. So I don’t know what was going through their mind. But he refused it because he was afraid. Afraid of getting chinned by the bronze boomer.”
