“I Don’t Care” – Deontay Wilder’s Trainer Opens Up on Tyson Fury Testing Positive for COVID-19

The war between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder seems to be off as the Brit and his team recently tested positive for the coronavirus. It was scheduled to go down on July 24, but now, a date in October is being viewed as a likely replacement. Given the unfortunate development, fans have been left disappointed.

Following the news break of Tyson Fury’s camp’s unfortunate situation, Wilder’s trainer, Malik Scott, interacted with ESNEWS and gave his own take on this anecdote.

“I don’t think, I know we’re about to get ready to work right now… I don’t care with the media reports,” said Scott.

Scott, in his above interview, even revealed that he and Wilder won’t stop their training camp by any means.

Over the past few months, the trainer-fighter duo has put in a mammoth amount of hard work in order to prepare for this trilogy. Wilder is extremely eager to resurrect his position at the top and reclaim his heavyweight throne by vanquishing ‘The Gypsy King’.
