Tyson Fury is by far the most comic and perhaps the best trash talker of the heavyweight division. As famous as he is for his boxing skills, Fury is equally known for the fiery one-liners he dishes out to his foes. At times, even people who aren’t his foes are on the receiving end of these fiery lines.

Fury, last month, took up the ring space to settle his prolonged beef with Deontay Wilder for one last time. The Brit was regarded as a favorite in this fight, and many expected him to finish Wilder even early this time. However, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ showed up with a mindset to be a different version of himself.

Post the knockdowns, Fury didn’t let Wilder dictate the pace of the fight. The undefeated star went all out against his rival, dropping him multiple times in the fight. Finally, in round 11, ‘The Gypsy King’ struck Wilder with a significant right hook to close the show.
