Tyson Fury again accused of cheating as boxing feud continues - 'I know he did'
PA
Deontay Wilder has repeated his accusations that Tyson Fury cheated in their third fight back in 2021
Deontay Wilder claims he 'knows' Tyson Fury cheated in their third and final fight two years ago after accusing the Gypsy King of wearing weighted gloves in the bout.
Fury and Wilder fought in one of the greatest trilogies in modern boxing history with the finale coming back in 2021.
After a controversial split draw in the first bout and Fury's one-sided victory in 2020, the two fought one last time a year later with both fighters hitting the canvas a combined total of five times.
But it was Fury's third knockdown of Wilder in the 11th round that stopped the fight and saw the Englishman triumph and retain his WBC heavyweight belt.

There was bad blood between the two rivals before and after the bout with Wilder launching sensational accusations - without proof - that Fury loaded his gloves with weights.
The Nevada State Athletic Commission found no issues with Fury's gloves after the fight, but Wilder has repeated his unfounded accusations without releasing his reported evidence.
“It isn't so much what I think Fury did, it was what I know he did. But God said ‘victory is not yours, it's his’, so I walk on that path," Wilder said.
"What I think has helped me a lot with life and what has made me happier - because I have proof of a lot of things [Fury did], you understand me? But that's neither here nor there - but what has helped me on the journey of life is Ayahuasca."
Wilder has only fought once since that loss to Fury and is back in action this month against Joseph Parker in Saudi Arabia.
And he's explained how drinking Ayahuasca has changed his outlook on life, insisting he's the "happiest he's ever been".
Wilder added: "Ayahuasca has been a beautiful thing. I advise everyone to explore those options of taking Ayahuasca.
"It has definitely released something in me, a lot of people say that I'm more sensitive to things and happier - and I feel that way ever since leaving Ayahuasca. I feel so much happier and a release of things. It's a beautiful thing.
"I appreciate the smallest things in life, not saying I didn't before, but I do even more on a wider scale. I'm happier and smiling more and a lot of people get skeptical about Ayahuasca because of certain things and they get frightful, but I always tell people you must overcome your fears because your fears can hold you back from reaching the next level.
“This is the happiest I've ever been. A lot of people assumed I was depressed because they weren't hearing from me.
"But if you go back in the history of time, when I'm out of boxing I'm MIA. I leave it alone, I go do other things because I'm so talented in so many different ways that I don't spend all my time boxing. I can't. I need multiple incomes, I have eight children, so I must continue to provide service to my greatness; the start of my music career which is going very well and I'm a businessman; I own many properties, I'm building plaza's and hotel condominiums, I have employees.
