How Deontay Wilder accused WBA champion Tyson Fury of cheating
Earlier, YEN.com.gh had reported how just before their heavyweight bout over the weekend, Deontay Wilder reportedly ordered for a rip up of Tyson Fury's boxing gloves as he alleged the Briton was cheating.
Fury defeated Wilder to retain his WBC World Heavyweight title, but there was drama just before the epic fight as the Bronze Bomber alleged that his opponent was cheating.
According to Wilder, Fury had horse hair in his gloves, reducing the padding to consequently hit a harder punch and he asked officials to cut it open.
Fury finally ended the trilogy in the 11th round of the third fight, stopping Wilder who had been down three times before the ending.
