Recently Fury said he could sue Wilder for defamation of character and that due to what wilder said he’s not going to fight him as he’s trying to drag him into the mud.
Could fury sue him for defamation? Also what do you think of him refusing to fight him again due to wilders accusations and actions?
He does not have to fight Wilder if he does not want to and Wilder's relentless verbal attacks is a legit reason not to. Why give Wilder a high paying shot at his title after what Wilder has said. Fury could try to sue Wilder but I think it would be a waste of his time and money and he would not get a dime for his efforts and that is why he is not suing Wilder.
Things look bad right now, but give it some time and all of this will blow over.
Wilder isn't gonna leave the sport. Sooner or later, there will probably be a 3rd fight.
Nothing makes you look worse than running. Never going to fight again? Sue? ***** prove you ain't cheat and knock a fool out again. Hell, idgaf if you did. Cheat again then, yer ass got away with it a few times now anyway. Either way, best way to handle **** is in the ring. ****ing Kayabel? I don't give have a **** what kind of spin you put on it, that's a **** fight, that's another **** defense by Fury. Fury is a ****ty, as ****, lineal champion.
Wilder ran like a coward letting the contractors clause expire let’s be real
I think Wilder could defend a court case by saying he wasn't trying to harm Fury's reputation, as such, he was just trying to goad Tyson into fighting him again and make the fight bigger if it happened. Boxers, MMA guys, pro wrestlers, etc, talk all kinds of shit about each other online, about PEDs, paid off judges, whatever. It hardly ever ends up in court.
Pro combat sports are a different world!
Pretty much. Or he can say he just believed what others told him.
Intent is always the hardest to prove.
Defamation is tough to prove because you have to prove intent. They would have to prove Wilder intentionally made up lies to try and hurt Fury’s reputation and cost him future opportunities.
More than often they are settled or thrown out.
I do think Fury will not ever fight him again. Doesn’t need to and there are bigger fights to be made for him, mainly AJ.

You can sue for anything you want. Don't mean it'll go anywhere.
Does Fury have a case to sue successfully is a whole other thing.
I'd have to listen to the video over again to make my amateur lawyer take on that, but I'd like to think Wilder has smart enough folks around him that they wouldn't have allowed him to release this if it had sh^t he could be sued for in it.
I'd question that statement considering all that he's come out with since the loss lol.
Breland should sue his sorry ass. Fury could too.
He is accusing Fury of cheating and endangering his life same with Breland with no proof.
I wish they both would. Wilder is a piece of ****. He is an example of the victim culture permeating in this country. Hope they take everything he has.
that's exactly what I was thinking too. The Floyd Manny fight and I understand 100% . Wilder went full ****** there
Remember Wilder said he wanted to fight Ortiz also to get him paydays due to his daughter having issues like his.
When guys match up.... They doing each other a favor.
I'm not doing Wilder no favors after BS like this. Especially since Wilder and Fury had respect for each other this whole time. Now he letting a lost throw that mutual respect away
Another example to a lesser extent of Lopez doing Loma a favor with a rematch. He felt disrespected so he like fck him.
Another example that is 3% of the Wilder/Fury situation

People forget Floyd refused to fight Manny again after he chose to not show respect after losing.
So imagine how Fury feels..... I wouldn't want no parts of him either
Remember when u fight someone u giving them a payday a big payday If it's a big fight.
Why offer someone a chance to make so much money after being so unsportsmanlike

I have no legal background, however I remember a woman suing McDonald's for spilling her coffee on her self because it was too hot. If that can be entertained, why not this?
I hate seeing this quote over and over again. The coffee that that poor woman spilt on herself was nearly 200 degrees Fahrenheit. She needed 8 days in the hospital and skin grafts. The case's infamy as a frivolous lawsuit is nothing but corporate propaganda by McDonalds.
Fury used to accuse Joshua of doing all sorts, also accused Haye lying about injuries 'Even though he had medical reports, and doctors stating that he will never fight again'.
I suppose Fury can take legal action, but in reality? Tyson Fury did not cheat, his gloves where checked 'Tyson Fury beat Deontay Wilder fair and square'.
Deontay Wilder's behavior is defaming his own character even more 'He is doing damage to himself'.

Fundamentally negligence is completely different to defamation of character.
That being said, Fury can and should sue Wilder.
Pac said very little compared to wilder, so Pac not getting rematch is a stain on Floyd's career.
It had trilogy written all over it, considering the fight happened too late.
Rematch didn't happen as pac said he had bad shoulder? That's all. He didn't accuse Floyd of ped use or anything
That's my point.... If Manny sore loser comments pissed Floyd off.
Imagine how Fury feels. When Wilder sore loser comments were x100 worst

I'm familiar with that case. While it sounds silly on paper, that woman actually suffered very severe burns. I remember the pictures being brutal.
Serves Wilder right. Im sure Fury wouldn't sue but we don't need a 3rd fight, Fury don't need a 3rd fight. Wilder does but FKK him. Already lost 2 out of 2.
