Tyson Fury doesn’t want the finger pointed at him.
A positive COVID-19 test for Fury ended up delaying his trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder. Wilder was more than unpleased at the development, in fact, he slammed Fury for being the reason the fight was delayed.
Fury fought back against Wilder’s claims, even explaining how he couldn’t control him contracting the virus.
“I’m the last person to blame,” says Fury of the virus which spread through his team. “I don’t have a large entourage, unlike most world champions with all their ass-licking hangers on. Since coming back into full time camp I hadn’t been anywhere other than my new house here and the Top Rank gym. Nor had my team.”
“The only people whose movements I couldn’t completely control were my sparring partners, who change. They came in and out of the bubble and everyone knows this town is full of Covid. I suspect we caught it from one of them.”
A war of words between these two like always. Let’s hope the trilogy fight between these two isn’t full of just words.
