LAS VEGAS (AP) — Deontay Wilder says an elaborate outfit he wore on his ring walk wore him down so much that he didn't have the legs to withstand Tyson Fury in their heavyweight title fight.
Wilder also told The Associated Press he would execute a clause in his contract for a third fight with Fury, hopefully sometime this summer.

Wilder said the outfit weighed him down and that his legs weren't right by the time the fight started and he knew by the second round his legs were gone.
He also criticized assistant trainer Mark Breland for throwing in the towel in the seventh round.
