Deontay Wilder says his water was SPIKED before Tyson Fury rematch, accuses former trainer

On Saturday, Deontay Wilder took the boxing world by storm by sharing a controversial video where he can be seen accusing Tyson Fury of cheating in their last two bouts. In the two-minutes-long video, the Bronze Bomber claimed Tyson Fury and his teammate Ricky Hatton tampered with his gloves to put his fist in an improper position. He added that The Gypsy King had a hard object concealed within his gloves, because of which he was able to inflict some serious damage on him, eventually winning their second match and becoming the WBC heavyweight champion.

The Bronze Bomber released the video after Tyson Fury refused to fight him in December, accusing Wilder’s team of pushing back the dates of their third bout. Tyson Fury's UK promoter Frank Warren later added to the comment, revealing that Deontay Wilder “missed the deadline” to sign the contract, meaning Tyson Fury is now free to defend his title against anyone he wants.

A few months ago, Wilder blamed his overweight walkout costume for the loss. He then claimed that he was injured before the fight, causing him to lose to Tyson Fury in February. He has now stated that his former trainer Mark Breland made him drink water spiked with muscle relaxants ahead of the bout, which made him feel “weird”.

He had no control over his body which made it really hard for him to focus on Tyson Fury, who according to him, was also cheating. “My water was spiked as if I took a muscle relaxer or something like that. My water was tampered with… It was like I had no control over my body, my legs were weak… I think he [Mark Breland] has got something to do with my water as well too,” Wilder added. View this post on Instagram Fury @gypsyking101 it is time for you to be a man and honor your agreement. What is this bullshit of you fighting Carlos Takam instead of me, you got to be kidding. When you were going through your darkest time, I told you that if you got yourself together I would give you a title shot. Being a man of my word, I gave you the title shot. When that fight was a draw, I told you that I would give you a rematch. You know I was offered more money to fight Joshua than I was getting to fight you. Again being a man of my word, I fought you like I said I would. In the rematch agreement, there was a rematch clause. Now it is time for you to be a man and honor your word, instead of trying to weasel out of our agreement. Scared people run but a scary man will break his contract you coward Azz B**čh! 🎥 @205willie #BombZquad #TilThisDay #YouThiefPayBackIsComingTrustMe A post shared by Deontay Wilder (@bronzebomber) on Oct 31, 2020 at 11:41am PDT Also Read l Tyson Fury cheating: Wilder’s team responds to Fury saying he’s moving on from rematch Image Source: AP
