“Had I Decided to Sue, Wilder Would Have Lost $100 Million For Defamation”, Claims Tyson Fury

It’s not surprising that Deontay Wilder’s recent claims have not gone down well with Tyson Fury. The Gypsy King reacted to Wilder’s statements about him and let it be known that he will never fight Wilder again.

Earlier, the Bronze Bomber had claimed that Fury cheated in both bouts by tampering with his gloves. He claimed that the latter added egg weights and scratched his flesh out of his ears, which lead to excessive bleeding during their rematch back in February this year.

Tyson Fury did not react immediately to the wild accusations. Recently, breaking his silence, Fury stated that he won’t sue Wilder. However, there’s no chance that a trilogy bout is ever going to take place.

“It’s over. Deontay Wilder tried to bring my character down with the bulls*** he said.

“So if I were like the rest of the world, I’d probably sue him for defamation of character for $100 million. But considering I’m not, I’m not interested in doing that type of thing.”

Deontay Wilder is currently ranked #1 in the WBC heavyweight rankings. However, he is not a mandatory challenger. If Wilder can get a win in a title eliminator, Fury would be bound to take on the Bronze Bomber.

Tyson Fury rains down on Deontay Wilder

If Fury decides to still not fight Wilder, the Gypsy King could lose a lot of money and might even have to vacate his WBO heavyweight championship.

Fury did not look too pleased with Wilder because of the excuses he has been making for the last eight months. The Gypsy King accused Wilder of waiting for the contract to get over so he could blame the former for his loss.

“Losing is one thing. Everybody can lose to the better man on the night.” Fury said.

The boxing world has criticized Wilder for not taking the loss like a man! Needless to say, the feud between Fury and Wilder will continue for years to come. The trash-talk has gone beyond the boxing ring. With allegations of cheating and Fury indicating that he could have sued him for his remarks, it’s certainly a black spot on professionalism.
