It has been almost ten months since Tyson Fury knocked out (technically) Deontay Wilder for the WBC heavyweight title. It was a lopsided win for Fury as he manhandled Wilder throughout the fight before stopping him in round seven via a TKO.

However, Deontay Wilder continues to justify the loss for several reasons. After blaming his overweight walkout costume for the loss, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ opened up on having an injury before the fight.

This time, he has taken a step ahead by claiming that his water was spiked with muscle relaxants. Although he admitted to getting weak in the fight, Wilder’s recent revelation has raised a lot of eyebrows in the boxing community.

Fury @gypsyking101 it is time for you to be a man and honor your agreement. What is this bullshit of you fighting Carlos Takam instead of me, you got to be kidding. When you were going through your darkest time, I told you that if you got yourself together I would give you a title shot. Being a man of my word, I gave you the title shot. When that fight was a draw, I told you that I would give you a rematch. You know I was offered more money to fight Joshua than I was getting to fight you. Again being a man of my word, I fought you like I said I would. In the rematch agreement, there was a rematch clause. Now it is time for you to be a man and honor your word, instead of trying to weasel out of our agreement. Scared people run but a scary man will break his contract you coward Azz B**čh! 🎥 @205willie #BombZquad #TilThisDay #YouThiefPayBackIsComingTrustMe

Talking about it, Wilder said, “My water was spiked as if I took a muscle relaxer or something like that. My water was tampered with… It was like I had no control over my body, my legs were weak… I think he [Mark Breland] has got something to do with my water as well too.”
