The 42-1-1 boxer spoke to 78SPORTSTV on YouTube and revealed his mindset for the fight. “My mentality is [like] how you’ve been contemplating about hurting a person so bad, to the point you wanna disfigure him so his mother wouldn’t even know who he was, if she passed by him, you know.”

Fury, however, has taken every chance to mock Wilder. He constantly claims that he has every ounce of Wilder’s dignity, and Wilder will only get his ‘Mojo’ back if he can beat more. In addition, he regularly refers to the ‘beat down’ he gave Wilder and ridicules him. Therefore, it is no surprise Wilder wants to do the same.
However, with the ruling, Wilder has won one battle. Ultimately, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ was right in saying they had a rematch clause. Therefore, the third fight between the two could be the most exciting of the lot. And maybe Wilder can use all the talk as motivation to beat Fury.
