The ongoing social media turmoil between in-ring foes- Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder continued as the latter has arrived with another lash to the tale. Former WBC heavyweight champion Wilder seems ready for a trilogy fight against Fury, and he has advised ‘The Gypsy King’ to offer him the challenge.

The trilogy bout has been on the cards since the rematch, where Wilder lost his WBC title to Fury. However, we didn’t hear a lot from him since then. It seemed that Wilder had moved on from the bout.

However, he got into the mix a few days back. After dropping several justifications for his loss and accusing Fury of ducking him, Wilder has called out the WBC champion once again.

Although Fury is set to go against Agit Kabayel in December, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ is still gunning for him. That said, it’s still not official about who ‘The Gypsy King’ will encounter on his return.

Deontay Wilder has a message for Tyson Fury again

Deontay Wilder wasn’t pretty active on social media. Despite that, he sent some crackers to Tyson Fury for their third fight. While Fury has also responded to Wilder for his back-to-back remarks regarding the loss, Wilder asked him to stop worrying about that.

Turning to Twitter, the American knockout specialist wrote, “Hey (Tyson Fury). Don’t worry about me. I am Fine, Blessed. The only thing I want from you is for you to honor your agreement and fight me. I gave you 2 shots when I didn’t have to and it changed your life. Now it is time for you to be a man and give me my shot as you agreed to.”

Since the title loss in February, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ has lost his dominance in the heavyweight unit. If he wants to regain his title and the top-spot, Wilder needs to remain active.

He is looking for the best he can get. However, the trilogy fight with Fury is still far away and doesn’t look likely to be booked in the coming days. Meanwhile, Fury and his team might move forward from Wilder.
