Brit champ Fury inflicted Wilder’s first professional defeat when they clashed in the ring for the second time last February, after their initial bout ended in a draw.
And the one-sided nature of the fight led to a stream of excuses, from heavy ring-walk outfits to claims his drinking water being spiked.
The Bronze Bomber also insisted dodgy gloves allowed Fury to cut his ears with his fingernails – despite zero evidence.
Deontay Wilder has been spoiled by our former president Donald Trump who says you can say any lie, or any preposterous thing and maybe some people believe it

And Arum claimed he is buying none of Wilder’s excuses.
He told talkSPORT: “Deontay Wilder has been spoiled by our former president Donald Trump who says you can say any lie, or any preposterous thing and maybe some people believe it.
“In Trump’s case, they believed it and stormed the capital. Deontay Wilder, again, irresponsible what he’s saying, totally.
“Whether it’s about Tyson Fury, Mark Breland – a tremendous guy – Deontay Wilder is not making any sense.

“But hey, if the former president who served for four years doesn’t make sense, I mean Deontay Wilder is just another Trumpian.”
Arum claimed last month that Fury will never fight Wilder again, despite the American claiming his trilogy clause is still valid, with his focus instead on Anthony Joshua.
In an exclusive interview with SunSport, the 89-year-old claimed the all-British showdown would be the biggest heavyweight fight since Muhammad Ali versus Joe Frazier.
