Tyson Fury tells Deontay Wilder to "get to back of the queue" ahead of return

Tyson Fury has told Deontay Wilder to "get to the back of the queue" after the former champion was asked about potential fights with Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua.

Wilder, 36, hasn't fought since being brutally knocked out by Fury in their trilogy fight last October. It marked Wilder's second consecutive defeat having also been stopped by 'The Gypsy King' the previous year. The American is set to make his ring return on October 15 against former sparring partner Robert Helenius in New York.

'The Bronze Bomber' is now gearing up for his comeback and is training with former opponent Malik Scott, who he partnered with after controversially ditching his old trainer Mark Breland for throwing in the towel to stop his rematch with Fury. Wilder has stated the heavyweight division is not exciting unless he is in the sport, which is why he decided to return.
