Deontay Wilder hits back at Fury after 'bum' comments by raging 'I gave him memory loss, I can't take him seriously'

DEONTAY WILDER has boasted he gave rival Tyson Fury “memory loss” and cannot take the Gypsy King “seriously”.

WBC king Wilder, 33, twice floored Fury, 30, when they fought to a contentious split-decision draw in December.

The Bronze Bomber has since KO’d Dominic Breazeale in one round while Fury will face unknown Tom Schwarz in June – leaving the rematch up in the air.

Speaking to TMZ Sports Wilder reacted to Fury labelling him a “bum” by goading the Gypsy King insisting he “forgets what he says” due to the heavy knockdowns he suffered last year.

Wilder said: "It's the same typical Tyson Fury, but all of the highlights are of him getting dropped on his back.

“The same Tyson Fury who I gave a concussion, the same Tyson Fury who I gave memory loss to, to the point where he don't even remember how he got on the ground or how he even got up.

“So we can't take what he says seriously because sometimes he forgets what he says as well.”

Wilder’s concussion jibe comes after the disgustingly announced – not for the first time – he wants “a body on his record”.

This is the only sport where you can kill a man and get paid for it at the same time – it's legal – so why not use my right to do so?

The Alabaman champion said before his title defence against Breazeale: "This is the only sport where you can kill a man and get paid for it at the same time

“It's legal – so why not use my right to do so?

"[Breazeale's] life is on the line for this fight and I do mean his life. I am still trying to get me a body on my record."

After he left Breazeale flattened on the deck in New York, Wilder conceded he was happy to see his rival go home to his family – the same week he threatened his life.

Wilder said after the victory: “I know there’s been a lot of animosity, hatred and chaos towards each other. There were a lot of words that were said.

“I told him I love him and, of course, I want to see him go home to his family.

“I know we say some things that we mean sometimes, but when you get into a fight and settle your differences as men, hold your gloves up – this is what this sport is all about.

“You can come to the next guy and you can hug him and kiss and say thank you so much, instead of other things.

“I wish the world was like that.”
