Tyson Fury believes Deontay Wilder doesn't get the respect he deserves FuryWhyte
The 33-year-is expected to relinquish his heavyweight title in the coming weeks and he believes Wilder will reclaim the WBC title in his absence before setting up a fight with Usyk or Joshua for all the marbles.Behind the GlovesFury is confused by the fact Wilder is still ranked at number one with the WBC despite suffering back-to-back losses in his most recent bouts with the Englishman.
“I don’t know how, that’s impossible. He’s lost three fights in a row and is still number one rated, but that’s up to [the WBC]. Despite disagreeing with Wilder’s WBC standing, Fury believes ‘The Bronze Bomber’ is the best of the rest at heavyweight and deserves more respect for what he has achieved in the sport.
“Deontay made 10 title defences, more than anybody else, he said. “He equalled Muhammad Ali’s record, beat Vitali Klitschko’s record, and doesn’t get the credit he deserves.
“I do believe he’s still the second-best heavyweight in the world, Deontay Wilder. I believe he knocks everybody else out but me.”
