He then compared the body shots in his training video to his 8-year-old daughter’s ability to throw punches.
“I think he was a wind-up. I take what Deontay says with a pinch of salt. He said I was putting metal bars in Tyson’s gloves.
“I don’t know if he’s trying to lead Tyson into a false sense of security but if my 8-year-old daughter threw body punches like that you know, I’d be upset, never mind the former heavyweight champion of the world. That shouldn’t be on BTSport that should be on the comedy channel,” said Ricky Hatton.
What can Deontay Wilder do differently this time around?
Any typical Fury-Wilder argument among fans of the sport usually ends with the question – what is Deontay Wilder going to do differently this time around?
The first fight was an absolute delight for boxing purists and fans. Up until the first Fury-Wilder bout, the Alabama native’s go-to approach revolved around capitalizing on his exceptional knockout power. That approach proved effective in the initial half of the fight; however, Tyson Fury‘s excellent defense and movement later defused Wilder’s game plan.

However, there was a clear contrast in the game plans of both fighters in the second bout. While Tyson Fury was more active on his feet and showed exceptional defense, not much had changed for his opponent. Instead, there seemed to be a regression in Wilder’s defense and general movement as he was an easier target for Fury.
