The last time Wilder and Fury locked horns was back in February 2020. Here, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ succumbed to a devastating T/KO loss. Post that fight, he put up several excuses for his loss and one of the reasons he stated was that his heavy walkout costume affected his legs.
Recently, in interaction with Brian Custer, Wilder hyped his walkout costume. He said, “Just you wait, just you wait. Just you wait. Hey, buy tickets just to see what I’m gonna wear. Click that pay-per-view button just to see what Deontay Wilder’s gonna wear.”
