Deontay Wilder has suggested a fourth fight with Tyson Fury is "coming around" as he awaits news on a heavyweight return.
The 'Bronze Bomber' returned for the first time since losing his trilogy fight with Fury when he knocked out Robert Helenius within one round last year. It was expected that Wilder would then return this year in a WBC heavyweight title eliminator with Andy Ruiz Jr, which was ordered by the organisation with negotiations commencing.
However, the fight has now been placed in serious jeopardy with the 37-year-old's potential rival instead ordered into a mandatory challenge battle by the IBF with Filip Hrgovic. Many suggested that Wilder could instead go straight for gold and challenge Fury who he has lost to in two of his last three fights.
