Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder delivered a fiery press conference ahead of their third fight on Saturday night.

Although there was no face-off, the heavyweight boxers exchanged heated words as they clashed over cheating allegations.

The pair answered each other's questions in a tense exchange

Their most recent bout ended in a convincing victory for Fury, although Wilder would go on to make numerous complaints.

The Bronze Bomber's excuses ranged from criticism of his trainer to concerns about his ring-walk costume and claims Fury tampered with his gloves.

Wilder doubled down on those accusations at Wednesday's event. He said: "I don't regret it, I will go to my grave believing in what I believe in.

"One thing about it, men lie, women lie, but your eyes don't lie what you see - people can believe what they want, but the eyes don't lie and it only made me better as a man to see certain facts. It made me hungrier than before."

Wilder stood by his cheating allegations

The Gypsy King hit back in a tense exchange, teasing Wilder throughout and calling him weak.

"I don't care because it is obviously coming from an unwell person," said Fury.

"He accused me of everything, his team, trainer, the suit [he wore on the way to the ring], injuries, the Athletic State Commission of Nevada, the ref - if he had come out with one excuse it might have been believable.

"What it tells me is he is a weak person who I am going to knock spark out on Saturday night."

Fury was at his entertaining best

Hosting the press conference, Kate Abdo called for the two fighters to face off at the end, before promoters Bob Arum and Frank Warren intervened.

The pair stood out of their seats and shouted 'no', fearing an on-stage fight which could've jeopardised the actual event on Saturday.

And it's just as well, judging by Fury's comments afterwards...

The WBC champion said: "We were gonna do a face off, but he ran away. Frank Warren was worried I was gonna chin him.

"I wouldn't have chinned him… I would have nutted the c***."
