Tyson Fury says Deontay Wilder is only taking third fight for one reason, Anthony Joshua clash will have to wait

Tyson Fury believes Deontay Wilder is only taking their upcoming trilogy fight for one reason - money.

The 'Gypsy King' beat up and stopped the 'Bronze Bomber' back in February, leaving many fans questioning whether the American would take up his contractual clause to force another rematch.

A lot of talk has since circulated surrounding a potential all-British undisputed title bout between Fury and Anthony Joshua.

However, there will be no step-aside deal made, with Wilder activating his trilogy clause.

Fury told GMB: "There's all these words of Anthony Joshua and all these other opponents.

"But old Deontay Wilder's still got his third fight that he has to take."

When asked if he truly thinks Wilder will face him again, Fury added: "He will do, he'll take the fight for one pure reason.

"It's called money.

"He'll take the fight because there's a hell of a lot of money on the table and he's got eight or nine kids to feed.

"He'll definitely take the rematch, and it's heavyweight boxing, anything can happen. Especially with a dynamite puncher like Wilder."
