BOB ARUM has hit out at Deontay Wilder over his wild, unfounded accusations as he compared the heavyweight boxer to President Donald Trump.
The Bronze Bomber took to social media on Saturday where he made a number of excuses as to why he lost to Tyson Fury.

Wilder has made a number of excuses as to why he lost to Tyson Fury in February
Wilder, 35, has still not got over the defeat he suffered in February as he continues to blame anyone but himself.
In the clip, he accused the Gypsy King of cheating, branded his former trainer Mark Breland as ‘disloyal’ and then stated somebody has spiked his water.
His controversial excuses have infuriated Fury’s US-based promoter Arum, as he labelled his American compatriot as ‘disgraceful’.
Speaking to iFL TV, the 88-year-old said: “We haven’t heard a lot from Wilder.
“So he is probably watching television, and all I can say about his Instagram post is that he is mimicking Donald Trump.
“In other words, lies come up with conspiracy theories. Do anything but put the blame on yourself.
“For him to castigate Kenny Bayless, the referee, and Mark Breland, his chief cornerman the way he did is disgraceful.
“Because they acted properly and they saved Wilder’s life from taking any further punishment.
“When he was completely out and getting thrashed by Tyson Fury.”
Anthony Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn has also reacted to Wilder’s ridiculous video as he too expressed his anger at his excuses.
He said: “It’s ridiculous. Listen, park him to the side, let the big boys, the real men go at it.
“Unless you’ve got any real substance then be quiet, go back to the drawing board, work harder, let the hunger burn to become champion again.
“It’s gone from the costume, to now he’s been found out about AJ, to now something about the gloves. It’s getting worse and worse.”
