DAVID HAYE stated that Tyson Fury's skin 'hasn’t gotten any worse' and that power-puncher Deontay Wester has 'a chance to beat anybody'.
In their 2018 draw Wilder defeated Fury twice, including a thrilling 12th round knockdown.
In 2018, Deontay Wilder twice smashed Tyson Fury
In their February 2020 rematch, however, the American lost in round seven after hitting the ground twice more.
This makes Fury the favorite heading into the trio bout. However, Haye, an ex-heavyweight champion, warned that Wilder should not be completely overlooked.
He said to iFL TV, "You have to give Deontay wilder a chance against anyone." Watch their fight.
"Anyone who punches [as hard] as Wilder." He's not lost his punch power and Tyson Fury hasn’t seen a drop in his chin.
"It's all about how they have lived their lives since that point, how much training they have received and how focused they have been.
"On paper, it would have to be said that the strength of the fight was overwhelming. I was there watching the fight and Tyson Fury gave one of his best performances as a British heavyweight who was challenging for a world championship, which was what he was doing when he challenged for the WBC title."
Wilder, 35 years old, was forced to fight for his right of an immediate rematch in arbitration. Fury, 33 tried to face Anthony Joshua, 31.
After winning his case, the trio was scheduled for July 24, in Las Vegas.
However, Fury had to withdraw due to a positive test for coronavirus. The fight was rescheduled for October 9.
This will mean that heavyweight rivals will be out of the ring since more than 19 months before the Gypsy King defends the WBC title.
Haye, 40 years old, stated that he won the award in exactly the same way he had promised.
"He's going walk across the ring and he's gonna put it on him. He's going slap him.
"Can Fury do it again using the same tactics?" We might find out. I don't know.
"Is Tyson Fury now more confident than he was in his past fights? Is he more confident now that he beat him or are his confidence levels higher?
"Has Wilder learnt from his first loss and how has he improved?" It is completely unknown.
"They haven’t boxed in a long while." It's been a while since Vegas."
