Watch Deontay Wilder training for ‘war’ in Tyson Fury trilogy and as trainer Malik Scott tries to motivate ex-champion


DEONTAY WILDER has been motivated by his coach Malik Scott to train for ‘war’ against Tyson Fury in their trilogy bout.

The American will finally get his shot at redemption on October 9, sharing the ring with Fury for a third time.

Firstly, the heavyweight rivals drew in 2018 before Wilder suffered defeat in the rematch two years later.

A contracted trilogy was expected, until Fury, 33, tried to walk away from it to instead fight Anthony Joshua, 31.

All meanwhile Wilder, 35, took his right to revenge to arbitration and at the 11th hour was awarded the verdict.

Fury’s ploy to freeze out the former champion has not been forgotten, and Scott, 40, warned the bad blood has gone way past just a fight.

Captured by PBC, he told Wilder: “It’s not a boxing match, brother, they turned it into something else, baby.

“They tried to bury you alive. We’re going to war.”

Wilder is then seen throwing combination punches and body shots, something not previously showcased in his arsenal before.

After defeat to Fury, he sacked assistant trainer Mark Breland, who rightfully threw in the towel after seven one-sided rounds.

Wilder also promoted Scott – who he knocked out in 2014 – from sparring partner and team member to full-time head coach.

The odds are stacked against The Bronze Bomber, who reigned as WBC king from 2015-2020 with TEN title defences.

But, that is just how the hard-hitting Alabamian likes it.

Wilder said: “A lot of people when the tough gets going, they tend to give up. Everybody wants things easy in life, it’s just not how it works.

“Certain things need to be tough. You’d never appreciate things if they came easy. You’ll never be perfect, but don’t mean you can’t practise it.

“We’re going to be targeting the body, targeting the arms, we’re going to be targeting the neck, we’re going to be targeting the head.

“There’s no body part that’s not going to be hit. In the end, my hands will be raised high in the sky, not because I whooped his ass in 12 rounds, but because I knocked him out.”
