Deontay Wilder demands $20m to allow Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury fight happen

Tyson Fury has claimed that Deontay Wilder wants $20 million to step aside to allow him fight Anthony Joshua.

A US Court this week, ruled that Fury must fight Wilder again by September 15.

If this happens, it would ruin the plans for an undisputed title bout against Joshua on August 14.

"What a joke the Bronze Bomber has become. Asked for $20m to move over, joker.

"Looks like I have to [fight him] again," Fury posted on social media on Tuesday night.

However, Wilder's new trainer Malik Scott is adamant they want to fight Fury and will not accept a pay-off.

"No. Wilder declined and had no interest in a step aside money. You are dealing with a whole different type [of mentality] over here. He wants the blood not the step aside money," Scott said.
