TYSON FURY'S father John has warned Deontay Wester that his son would send him into'retirement. He also tells him to read Anthony Joshua's book about how to deal with defeat.
Fury and Wilder will meet next Saturday, possibly for the last time, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
John claims that Tyson, his son, will retire Wilder
The 2018 fight ended in a draw. However, Fury won the 2020 rematch convincingly and stopped Wilder in round 8.
Wilder was not happy with the loss and claimed that his water had been spiked. Fury was also accused of cheating.
He also blamed fatigue for his inability to walk to the ring in his heavy costume.
John believes Wilder should take lessons from Anthony Joshua who, despite losing to Oleksandr Uzyk at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last Saturday, was gracious in defeat.
John admires the humility of Brit who lost his WBA and IBF heavyweight world titles.
He replied, "I was asked about Wilder being similar to AJ.
"You couldn't compare the two men. AJ was able to keep his dignity even in defeat. He knows the truth and is determined to make it right.
"The other one is in complete denial and has been talking absolutely rubbish for the past two years.
"He still talks rubbish, and that's what keeps me off of him as a fighter. That's why I believe he cannot improve his mentality.
Tyson will know when it's time to box and fight, and Wilder doesn't have the intelligence to deal with that at any level. It's not that I'm knocking him, it's just his character that he has shown me in defeat.
"How can you learn from defeat when you keep going like that?"
"The American people love Tyson, and I love them both. But I like men between men. I prefer men to be men.
"I don’t want them to behave like spoilt kids in defeat. I admire men who can defeat with dignity.
"Look at Manny Pacquiao. He didn't do that. He blamed his costume, blamed his team, defaming professional people, and slandering world champions. It's defamation and not allowed.
"Like I stated before, I would have taken him to court. He would not have won a second fight, but that's politics. I have no control over that.
John predicts Tyson will retire Wilder, and he said that his son is 'going for the knockout' and 'in explosive fashion'.
He said, "The result will be exactly the same, but I believe he will get a much worse beating than he received before and that will end Deontay Wilder."
"It will not be retirement for him. Tyson has been training him to hurt him and cause him serious injury and I mean it in the kindest way I can.
"He has people blowing smoke up his backside, saying that he can do this or that.
They can all put on a great show, but once you're in the bright lights with the man in your face, it becomes clear that you have a daunting task ahead of you.
"That's when they smell coffee. Will he be capable of handling it?" He doesn't seem to think so. Maybe I'm wrong.
Tyson is a strong finisher and is currently in the hurt mode. He isn't going for a points decision. It's impossible in America, he knows.
Tyson is determined to knockout the competition and do it in an explosive manner. He's been trained to do that.
