Wilder confirms he wants rematch with Tyson Fury

Deontay Wilder, the undefeated American, who earned a controversial draw on the scorecards to retain his WBC heavyweight title on Saturday,  is already relishing the possibility of a rematch against Tyson Fury. “Thanks to the city of Los Angeles, Staples Center and all the fans around the world that supported this David vs Goliath fight,” the Bronze Bomber wrote. “It was an amazing fight and I wanted nothing but greatness to come from this. The fight lived up to the hype more than ever. When you put the best against the best, exciting things happen. I take nothing away from this fight but we won this fight.  To beat the champion, you must dominate the champ and to me, I was the more aggressive fighter and landed the more effective punches. You saw the best Fury but you did not see the best Wilder and I still managed to get the job done. 'This event brought more pressure than I expected, I just wanted the best for boxing here in America and boxing in general which led me to get overly anxious to knock his head off so I abandoned the game plan. Did the count start 3-4 seconds too late or was the count too long is the question many are asking and debating about.  The ref Jack Reiss is an amazing ref who I've had the pleasure of working with on several occasions. He did a great job and at the end of the day boxing wins, the fans are the real winner and I can't wait for Wilder vs Fury 2 to end the controversial talk around the world once and for all!! Love, Love, Love to all my fans! Blessings and see you guys again soon,” he concluded.
