John Fury, father of the WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, expressed confidence that the reason for the latest disastrous performances Deontay Wilder And Otto Wallina is that they were negatively affected by fights with his son.
On December 23, at a boxing evening in Riyadh, Wallin lost early to Anthony Joshua, and Wilder lost by a crushing decision to Joseph Parker.
“Wallin was scared shitless of Joshua. I give Anthony credit, he looked like a man with a purpose. Wallin never showed his worth, just like Deontay Wilder in his fight with Joseph Parker.
I've never seen anything as bad as Wilder's performance in my life. In Wallin and Wilder I saw two completely different people. These were not the same guys who fought Tyson. Perhaps Tyson took everything from them,” Boxing Social quotes Fury Sr.
