Tyson Fury On Third Wilder Fight: 'I Ain't Chasing Anything'

Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder are set to add a new chapter to their intense rivalry with a third fight set for July 24.

The pair met for a press conference last June 15, in which Wilder bewilderingly said almost nothing.

This allowed the British to take control of the moment and blast his opponent after the press conference.

“People have come here to interview him, to see what he’s got to say and promote the fight,” said Fury while doing his media rounds post-conference.

ESPN was able to get a hold of “The Gypsy King” and asked him what motivates him for this third fight.

Fury, without missing a beat, says that it’s blood.

“I’m a very unique character. Where nothing matters apart from the fight,” he stated.

He further cements his point.

“I ain’t chasing anything. I ain’t chasing supremacy. I’m not chasing belts. I’m not chasing to be remembered… I’m just living one day at a time and I’m enjoying today because God tells me tomorrow is not promised to anybody,” Fury declared.

Many, including the 40-year-old Fury, were disappointed with the announcement of the fight as it pushes back the long-anticipated super-fight to determine the undisputed heavyweight champion.

Fury has gone on record to express his concern that fellow British boxer Anthony Joshua will lose in his fight against Oleksander Usyk, and since that fight is confirmed to have a rematch clause, it will make the unification bout even more impossible to happen quickly.

Wilder looks to take back the only loss on his resume, while Fury is determined to knock out his American counterpart and finish the fight quickly.

Fury plans to bulk up to 300 pounds for the fight and hopefully catch Wilder with a one-punch knockout.

The two first met in December 2018 and that clash ended in a draw which prompted the second fight in February 2020, where “The Bronze Bomber” was knocked out in seven rounds for his first-ever loss.

The aftermath led to Wilder and his team making such excuses as the 40-pound outfit that he walked out in affected his performance.

Much like Wilder’s newfound silent demeanor, little is left to say about this bout as the two fighters clearly have a certain level of disdain for one another.

Moreover, Fury would like to move on to the Joshua fight as soon as possible.
