Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder is just a couple of minutes away. As Fury gets his hands wrapped, members of Deontay Wilder’s camp look on. The last time the two heavyweights fought, Wilder had claimed that Fury had something in his gloves.
Fury seemed to be in a very relaxed mood as he sang along to songs playing in the background while his hands were being taped. Before the process started, ‘The Gypsy King’ also taunted Jay Deas, who was watching on, saying, “You missed the knuckle dusters last time.”
