Mike Tyson Reveals Deontay Wilder’s Biggest Mistake From the Tyson Fury Trilogy

Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder rolled out one of the greatest heavyweight fights last year. The pair collided for the third time and fans expected a tough bout from the two men. Consequently, the duo went all guns blazing against each other and their fight had everything a hardcore boxing lover wished for.

In this fight, the fierce power puncher, Deontay Wilder, succumbed to a heart-wrenching loss, despite giving his all.

Citing his performance, Mike Tyson recently put some light on the biggest mistake committed by Wilder in this fight.

Speaking to Shannon Sharpe, he said, “Going with your jab, he has to go all out for 12 rounds with him. Can’t give him no room to punch, he has to go all out for 12-rounds with him. He can’t give him no time by moving around, can’t allow him to think. He allows Tyson Fury to think a lot. He gives him a lot of time.”

Ex-champ Wilder walked in with a purpose in his trilogy against Fury. He started off well with long and strong jabs and began capitalizing on them by employing his right hand. ‘The Gypsy King’, however, looked prepared for the same and he dodged the heat coming off his adversary’s hands.
