“Deontay Wilder Is the Most Dangerous Fighter”-Tyson Fury Hails His Opponent’s Supremacy Over Himself

Despite the intense bad-blood, Tyson Fury has admitted Deontay Wilder is the most dangerous boxer of this time. It might be surprising to accept for many but ‘The Gypsy King’ didn’t hesitate while acknowledging Wilder’s prowess, before colliding with the American star on October 9. Having beaten Wilder in the rematch in 2020, Fury believes he will repeat the same on the trilogy collision.

But the current WBC champion agreed on the statement that he can never be as treacherous as ‘The Bronze Bomber’. In a chat with The Lockdown, Tyson Fury opened up on several aspects surrounding his in-ring career and personal life. Hence, he couldn’t avoid shedding some light on Deontay Wilder as his rival.

Fury said, “When I had a proper training camp for the second one, he got obliterated. And the third time I am expecting more of the same to be fair. But that doesn’t mean to say he can’t beat everybody else in the division with one hand tied behind his back.”

“Because I do believe he is the most dangerous, even including myself. He is more dangerous than I will ever know how to be. Deontay Wilder is the most dangerous fighter on this planet, all weights, doesn’t matter.”

Meanwhile, Deontay Wilder has expressed reluctance to talk much about his next fight. Following the maiden defeat of his glittery career against Fury, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ had gone into a long layoff. However, he is back to action and the third fight against Fury will settle everything. Already honed by Malik Scott, Wilder’s recent training sees him at 100%. So, anything can happen on the fight night.
