Deontay Wilder has once again lashed out at Tyson Fury over his ‘nauseating’ lie about having Covid-19 to get their set of three battle delayed.
The boxing champions were booked to meet on July 24 yet Fury and a few individuals from camp tried positive for Covid-19, making the battle be deferred.
The Gypsy King and Wilder will currently organize their bout in Las Vegas on October 9, with the Brit’s WBC world heavyweight title on the line.
Deontay Wilder is of the view that Tyson Fury will investigate each road to avoid their booked bout and requested he ought to be granted the WBC world strap and his full check if the Manchester heavyweight refuses to fight him.
This is what Deontay Wilder had to say to 78SPORTSTV;
”I’m just tired of the lies. That’s all it is, lies. That’s what I believe. And a lot of other people do too. The whole world believes it’s nothing but lies.
And it really sickens me to hear that because so many people have died of COVID. People I know have had family members to die of it. To hear others using this as an excuse to get out of something is just horrible man.
He added; May they burn in hell for that. Especially for something like this. Because the dude said he had COVID, then the next minute you see him in so many different places. It’s just ridiculous. He’s been trying to run away from me since July of last year. He’s paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to try to avoid me.”
Meanwhile, information picked up from the world of football indicates that a 21-year-old young man has been charged after Chelsea FC reported racist and hostile to Semitic tweets.
The young man who has since been identified as Nathan Blagg, from Retford, Nottinghamshire, is blamed for seven counts of sending hostile messages by open the use of public communication network. It is asserted that he sent the messages between February 5 2020 and February 3 2021.
Blagg was captured in February this year by officials from the Metropolitan Police Central Football Unit, and charged by postal demand. As per reports, Blagg will show up at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on October 8.
This is what Chelsea FC had to say at the time of his arrest;
”We welcome today’s arrest which shows that hateful messages shared on social media do have consequences. We continue to work closely with the police to support their investigations on this important issue.”
Inspector Matt Ashmead from the Met Police’s Central Football Unit also had this to say;
”This action proves that the internet is no safe refuge for troll to target people with hateful, offensive or racist abuse.” Online abuse is not victimless and we will look to identify this responsible and take action.”
