Tyson Fury’s dad, John Fury, has sent a warning to Deontay Wilder, stating tha he’ll end up in hospital if he decides to fight his son for the third time.
Wilder on Sunday officially exercised an immediate rematch clause for a third fight with Tyson Fury after Fury humiliated him in the seventh round to capture the WBC Heavyweight belt.
The third bout between the pair is being targeted for July 18th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, and John Fury a former heavyweight boxer, has warned Wilder that he risks ending up in the hospital if he wants to fight his son.
“I can’t blame him for that. It’s all about the money,” John Fury told IFL TV.
“So what you want to do: go after AJ. Spread your wings. There’s other people out there. Other people he can annihilate. But let me tell you something, Tyson Fury has too much brains. He’s only getting better. Tell your team to start looking further afield, there’s plenty of other heavyweights out there you can make a few quid with.
“Get after Joshua and you’ll probably get all the other belts back off him. There’s plenty of other people out there. Concentrate on them. If you mess with my son, there’s only one place you’re going: the hospital. For a long time. So forget that one. Deontay Wilder is an incredible fighter. He’s got the knockout power. Let me tell you, any lesser man than Tyson Fury is not beating Deontay Wilder. Tyson is No. 1. Wilder is definitely No. 2.”
