Deontay Wilder succumbed to the most dreadful defeat of his career against the Brit legend Tyson Fury last year. The ‘Bronze Bomber’ enjoyed a cracking run in the big men’s division. But this loss changed the combat sports fraternity’s perception of him.
Post the fight, Wilder gave several reasons for his loss. He even accused Tyson Fury of cheating and winning this fight.
Recently, the ‘Gypsy King’s father, John Fury, was in a chat with SecondsOut. Therein, he fired back at the Alabama native for his remarks on his son.

“No other word, (he) wants a punch straight into the mouth. That’s what he wants, a punch straight in the mouth. Coming out with that ridiculous rubbish, a sore loser,” said Fury.

Fury fumed over Wilder for his accusations. Moreover, he yelled at Wilder for firing his trainer, Mark Breland, who threw a towel inside the ring to stop the fight.
John Fury continued, “He got beat fair and square in his country. He got rag-dolled and battered to a pulp. And he’s used every excuse to tarnish Tyson‘s victory. You can’t do it, Deontay. You’re a piece of crap of a man.”
