Deontay Wilder on Tyson Fury
Ahead of his return to the ring, Wilder has issued a condemnation of English professional boxer Tyson Fury.
Fury defeated Wilder twice to become the new WBC heavyweight title holder.
After the second fight, Wilder was certain that Fury cheated with his gloves to get the victory.
Since then, there has been a back-and-forth between the two heavyweights on social media.
Fury and Wilder were able to see for the face time since their trilogy bout early this year.
The Gypsy Kings and the Bronze Bomber were both special guests at the boxing event in Saudi Arabia between American social media personality Jake Paul and British reality television personality.
Wilder in an interview with ES News stated that he did not fight Fury when they met because Saudi Arabia is a peaceful country.
He branded him a cheater and rained several insults on the reigning WBC champion.
Wilder said, "I know a lot of people seen me with Fury.
"There's a place and a time for all things. Of course... I can't stand that motherf*****, they know what's up.
"He's a cheater, I know a lot of things. A lot of top people know a lot of things, so they can't be fooled bro.
"This is a peaceful ground. It's like 'I don't like you, but I can come and let you know I see you see.
"We can co-exist with each other, you stay over there and I'll stay over here, that's it."
