Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 4 chances after Gypsy King's KO in Las Vegas

One of Deontay Wilder's manager has revealed that the American fighter wants to fight Tyson Fury in the future.

In their trilogy fight, Fury defeated Wilder for the second time after winning by an emphatic knockout in the 11th round.

In what has being described as one of the greatest heavyweight fights of all-time, Wilder looked like he had Fury beaten twice with two huge shots and putting him down in the fourth before The Gypsy King would come back and dominate.

And despite losing the last two fights, Wilder's co-manager believes the Bronze Bomber would jump at the chance of a fourth bout - but warned there might not be much public demand for it at the moment.

Shelly Finkel has stated that the "big fights" will motivate Wilder to come back stronger from his defeat and injury in 2022 - with a potential fight against Anthony Joshua on the cards.

He told The Sun : "It’s not on the drawing board now, but he would love to get Fury back again.

"I don’t think people want to see that right now, some of the other fights have to find their way through and then that can be a possibility.

"Because at the end of the day, aside from the winner from the Usyk and Joshua fight, there aren’t many big fights for Fury either."

Finkel added that Joshua could be an opponent for Wilder once he has recovered from his hand injury. The American is set to go under the knife next week.

Fury meanwhile, will now likely face up with mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte for his WBC Heavyweight title, assuming Whyte gets the job done against Otto Wallin this month.
