DEONTAY WILDER has intensified his battle of words with Tyson Fury, calling the Brit "one of the biggest boxers."
On October 9, the Bronze Bomber will face Wythenshawe's warrior in a Las Vegas trilogy fight.
Next month, Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder will renew their rivalry in Las Vegas
Wilder, 35, was defeated by Fury last February in a rematch. However, he came up with many ridiculous excuses for his first professional defeat.
The American made mention of Fury's failed drug testing after his victory over Christian Hammer in February 2015.
He said to 78SPORTSTV, "Look at Tyson Fury’s rap sheet. He's one the biggest cheats boxing. But have you ever heard about it?"
"They don’t care.
"When all is said and done, I can look in the mirror and see that I did it right the first time."
After his victory over Germany's Hammer in the eighth round of TKO, Fury, 33 tested positive for banned anabolic steroids nandrolone.
After a lengthy and complex case with UK Anti-Doping The Gyspy Kings was suspended for 2 years in December 2017. However, his ineligibility period was re-dated to February 2015.
Wilder has been vocal about the use of performance-enhancing drugs in the sport, adding: "All these fighters taking these PEDs, you're cowards.
"It's horrible... It's all money, boxing is all about money.
"It seems that the boxing power brokers don't care because they make excuses for these cowards."
Fury vs Wilder's third installment was supposed to be in July, but it was postponed after the first caught Covid-19.
Wilder thinks the Brit could win their clash again.
He stated that if he doesn't show up, he will have to bear the consequences and the penalties that have been set forth.
"If he doesn't fight, then you can pay me what I'm supposed to be paid."
"Then, you must also give up your belt.
"So it's win-win for me, but it's lose-lose for him.
"That's what's great about it, cause the saying has always been that history repeats.
"We know that his actions are consistent, he has done this many times where he attempts to end fights.
"He had a way out. He has no other options, doors at the moment.
"He must put up or shut down, fight or retire. Either fight for your money, or you give up your belt.
"It's a win/win situation for me, and I can finally sleep at night with that being said.
