Wilder fires heavyweight title warning to Fury: ‘The war has just begun’

Deontay Wilder has fired a heavyweight title warning at his conqueror Tyson Fury, insisting: “The war has just begun.” Wilder lost his world title belts and undefeated record to Fury in Las Vegas last weekend, the ‘Gypsy King’ producing one of the great British boxing performances to land a seventh round stoppage. That was the second meeting between the pair, the first having controversially ended in a draw in December 2018, and the American has already exercised his option of anther rematch in an attempt to regain his crown. That news came as a disappointment to fans hoping to see Fury take on Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight unification bout at Wembley next, and in a video released on his Twitter, Wilder was in defiant mood. We will rise like a phoenix from the ashes and regain the title. I will see you in a few months because the war has just begun.” Related: The worst excuses made by sports stars following Wilder's costume claim [Read Sports]
