sport news Deontay Wilder makes another cheating dig Tyson Fury ahead of his fight with ... trends now
Deontay Wilder has aimed yet another accusation at his rival Tyson Fury - claiming the winner of his potential fight against Oleksandr Usyk will be the one who 'cheats the hardest'.
The Bronze Bomber fought Fury three times between 2018 and 2021 - drawing the first before being stopped in the second and third - claiming the Gypsy King had put an 'egg-weight' in his glove in the first two fights.
He also accused Ricky Hatton - who was in Fury's corner for their first clash - of moving the Gypsy King's gloves to reduce the padding around his fists. The American has listed many other reasons for his defeat in the second bout - including that his ring walk outfit was too heavy and that his water was spiked.
