Deontay Wilder had faced a lot of criticism from the boxing world when he accused his long-time trainer Mark Breland of spiking the water during his rematch against Tyson Fury, which ultimately cost him the WBC title. However, unlike many others, legendary boxer Evander Holyfield didn’t ridicule his fellow American boxer’s claims.
As Wilder is no longer with Mark Breland, he is set to face Tyson Fury one last time on July 24 in an epic trilogy for the WBC world heavyweight championship.
Before the gladiators collide, they have split the fight universe into two halves, with several people voicing their opinion. Meanwhile, ‘The Real Deal’ has also joined the ride and has passed a cheeky suggestion to ‘The Bronze Bomber’.

Speaking with Fight Hub TV, Evander Holyfield said, “Wilder, I have never seen him fight like that ever in my entire whole life. You got to know, something got to happen. How many people forget all their skills?”
He added, “You know what you will have to watch your water. You gotta watch the water that you drink, you got to have the right people around you all the time that make sure everything is right.”
Notably, Deontay Wilder looks ready to go against Tyson Fury and is adopting a positive mind frame with his new trainer Malik Scott. For the first time in a long span, Wilder hasn’t been into trash-talking and has chosen silence for the build-up to the fight.
As he vows to speak with action inside the ring, we can possibly see the American elite land an upset.
