DEONTAY WILDER has issued a chilling threat to Tyson Fury.
The 6ft 7in American WBC heavyweight champion dropped the Brit twice towards the end of their 2018 draw, with the Gypsy King twice beating the count in sensational style.

On February 22 the pair rerun their classic and the Alabama ace was in a dark mood when asked how the fight will go down.
Wilder watched Fury’s September fight closely and the two gruesome cuts he suffered around his right eye are fresh in his mind.
The former champ needed 47 stitches to heal the gaping cuts unfancied Otto Wallin inflicted on him, before Fury earned a clear points win.
And Wilder has vowed to club and slash at those scars before looking to do his rival serious damage.
He said: “Wallin had a game plan and executed it. That fight should’ve been stopped with a cut so deep and I look forward to re-cutting that eye.
“Once it’s open again and the blood is in his face I’m coming in for the kill. I don’t play around.
“I knocked him out the first time but I didn’t get it and I’m going to knock him out again.”
The brutal KO artist is infamous for claiming his boxing alter ego, The Bronze Bomber, wants a body on his record.
And he predicted that Fury will not get back up when he hits the canvas this time.
Wilder said: “The first fight was thrilling and controversial and nobody really knows who won, so we are coming to settle everything. This is judgement day.
“Everyone will have a clear conscience after February 22.
“I knocked him out the first time but I didn’t get the win but I am going to pick up where I left off and he is not getting up this time, I promise you that.
“Fury has pillow-esque fists. After the first fight I didn’t feel sore. I took all of his punches. He’s just a big man who can move around the ring, his power is not there.
“The Gypsy King is going to be floored and he’s definitely not getting up.”
