TYSON FURY was a man of his Word ..... he put Deontay wilder on notice four year ago by telling him 'I’m coming back for YOU'.
Four years ago, Fury was 25-stone and struggling with depression. He contemplated suicide.
Many, including Wilder, dismissed Fury's chances at a successful return to heavyweight boxing.
Wilder's words were a motivation for the Brit to stage one of sports' greatest comebacks.
Fury wrote Wilder in 2017 a message: "Guess which one's back?" The only and only.
"Shout out to Deontay Wilder, the big 'Bronze Bomber. Huge respect to Deontay Wilder for motivating me, and telling me that I couldn't do it, and that I'm done.
"I'm coming back to you, baby. "I'm coming back for your baby!"
Wilder was also confronted by Fury after his victory against Francesco Pianeta in 2018.
"But one thing I can promise you when I go to Las Vegas is that I'm going to knock you the f***ing bum."
Now, Fury has fought Wilder 3 times, winning 2 of them. Fury is faithful to his word and came for Wilder and knocked him out.
Fury became a two time world heavyweight champion.
After 32 professional fights, the Gypsy King has yet to be defeated. Dillian Whyte is the leading contender to face Fury if he defeats Otto Wallin by the end of this month.
This is not the all-British heavyweight unification fight that fans had hoped for in 2022.
It's just one part of Fury’s journey to heavyweight unification.
Fans have been calling for Anthony Joshua's fight against Fury with all of the heavyweight belts at stake.
Oleksandr Usyk took Joshua's WBA, WBO, and IBF titles last month.
Joshua has opted to rematch his clause, with the fight still not scheduled for any time soon.
It will be difficult to win the belts back from Usyk.
