The 34-year-old still has almost a month to trigger his rematch clause and his current ban will not stop him from seeking revenge. "The rematch is definitely going to happen. We're going to get it on. I want to get right back to it," he said. The trilogy is claimed to be set for July 18 but Fury's promoter Bob Arum was the date to be extended to either September or October in Las Vegas. The winner of the fight is expected to face Anthony Joshua who will take on Kubrat Pulev in June, next year. Meanwhile, Deontay Wilder has blamed his heavy costume which weigh around 40lb for his loss to Tyson Fury. According to him, the costume made his legs weak during the fight. Tyson Fury did not only defeat Deonaty Wilder in the ring to win the WBC belt, he also did not take chances from receiving bottle water from a fan for the fear of being spiked. The Gypsy King was still basking in the euphoria of a seventh round technical knock out of the Bronze Bomber when somebody approached him in a post-match conference.
