Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury jaw on Twitter

Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury don't like each other.

Tyson Fury is well-known for speaking his mind, or just speaking in weird outbursts, and now he's trying to start a war of words with WBC heavyweight titleholder Deontay Wilder, the unbeaten American won dominated Bermane Stiverne in January to pick up his first world title.

Fury started the proceedings with a little "i'll beat u up so bad":

@BronzeBomber ow u r in trouble boy, I'm gonna beat u so bad u will never look @ boxing ever again & the whole world will see it live!!!!!!

Wilder responded:

@Tyson_Fury look here yea, I'm really getting sick of your mouth son so flap jack if your bald enough fight me instead of wlad #Once&ForAll

And then Wilder really dropped a hilarious nonsense bomb:

@Tyson_Fury you fat shit monster!!!

If boxing had more internet-y fans, there is no way that "fat shit monster" wouldn't be forever associated with Tyson Fury now.

Then it really heated up.

So these could be fun press conferences that destroy any remaining notion that boxing is a noble sport.
