The American lost his WBC heavyweight title in Las Vegas on Saturday night, having been dropped twice before his corner finally threw in the towel in the seventh round, and claimed his 40-pound costume had drained his energy.

Wilder has already confirmed he will trigger a rematch clause to have a third fight with Fury this summer and intends to tweak the design of his outfit to ensure the same problems do not occur.

‘I think I’m just gonna have to make some adjustments with the accessories that’s on there,’ Wilder told BoxingScene.com when asked how he’d combat the heaviness of the outfit

‘My last couple of outfits, they had no weight on it. It was more Styrofoam. This time around, we added different heavy things. The skulls, the rhinestones that was on there. There was a lot of things that were designed on there that made it very, very, very heavy.

‘You know, even with the mask, it had battery packs in the mask. So, it was quite a bit, you know, and I’m definitely gonna change that up. That’s something that I’ll never do again.’



This stupid fricker will not STFU. Is anyone in his inner circle telling him to just take the L? Geez

Can’t wait to see the costume trolling Fury does in the next fight.

Walk in wearing a towel with a hole cut out for the head like Tyson.

You'll still get you azz whupped if you don't land a right hand.

I guess people might be interested in watching him get his arse kicked again but the luster has worn off with this matchup for the most part.

He seems like a good dude. And a likable dude.

And he’s throwing that image away by talking too damn much.

Dude just needs to let it go and stop talking about it. He's embarrassing himself.

Why can't he just walk out with a simple boxing robe like pro fighters have been doing for decades?

He needs to just STFU

He’s killing the interest in a third fight already

Hell Fury might just say no thanks now with all the nonsense Wilder is saying

Not to mention it was a draw the first time, so if Wilder wins fight 3, you're back to a split.

He probably needs to train with the costume on so he can build up some legs

Wilder's not winning fight 3. Fury has his number and Wilder is too long in the tooth to change his style now.

The only way Wilder wins is if Fury goes off the deep end like he was before their first fight, gains a shite ton of weight and goes back to drinking and drugging like there's no tomorrow.

But if he comes into the 3rd fight in shape with a good training camp under his belt, it's going to be more of the same for "Windmill Wilder".

You an idiot for not realizing this is the exact reaction he is hoping to get out of what he is doing. You are literally aiding the buzz around the trilogy fight.

You don't hear Dion Warwick making excuses after getting voted off the Masked Singer do you.

Video surfaced today of him training in 45lb vest and how he talked about wearing one to train prior to the first fight

I'm surprised at his insistence to continue talking about this. I'm sure it sucked to get his arse beat, but the dude is actually blaming rhinestones and battery packs on a costume. The comments look like something out of an Onion article.
