Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder were denied a pre-fight face-off after a furious row erupted between the heavyweight rivals at the final press conference.

Fury and Wilder became embroiled in a heated dispute, just days before their third WBC title fight, and the feuding duo were prevented from going head-to-head in front of the cameras.

Fury told Wilder that Wilder was in denial and he was going to be knocked out.

Fury also told Wilder to retire from boxing as his legacy is in bits.

In response, Wilder says he has nothing to lose.

The much anticipated third fight will be on Sunday and the fight program will begin at around midday.
