After suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of 'The Gypsy King', Deontay Wilder will get a chance to avenge his loss.

Although Wilder scored two knockdowns, his first fight with Tyson Fury ended in a draw. The second fight ended in a TKO victory for Fury.

Talks over a fight between Fury and English boxer Anthony Joshua were ongoing but things took a turn on May 21. Daniel Weinstein, an aribitrator, ruled that Fury owed Wilder a rematch.

Going by videos posted on social media sites, Wilder seems to be more than ready to earn back the respect of his fans with a win over the English fighter.

Deontay Wilder, who is known for his knockout power, lost his second fight to Tyson Fury via TKO in the seventh round of the bout.

What made the loss even more embarrassing for Wilder was the barrage of excuses that 'The Bronze Bomber' made after the fight.

The first was Wilder's claim that his walkout costume was too heavy and his legs burnt out. Thus, he was apparently unable to move in the ring.

One of the 'Bronze Bomber's most outrageous excuses for losing the fight against Fury was that the 35-year-old's water was spiked with a muscle relaxer which caused another hindrance to the boxer's movement inside the ring.

These excuses put off a lot of boxing fans who were previously loyal to the 'Bronze Bomber'.
