Tyson Fury showcases his Deontay Wilder inspired stool for the pair's trilogy bout this weekend
Tyson Fury has always been a fighter who has engaged in some light hearted, funny mind games and he is at them yet again.
In a BTS clip this week, Fury revealed his special stool which he would be sitting on in the ring in between rounds this weekend, even if you are a fan of Wilder, you have to admit, this is quite a funny move from Fury and his team.

Of course this could turn out very badly for Fury if he goes in there and ends up getting knocked out on Saturday, however, after the way the second fight between the two went, many fans are still going for Fury to once again dominate Wilder.
How do you think Fury vs Wilder 3 will play out?
