Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder are set to fight Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The trash talk between the two has been constant, and Fury is still going. Fury says Wilder hasn't fought anyone as good as him.

"He goes around saying he fights all the best heavyweights but Dominic Breazeale ain't no best heavyweight and neither is Luis Ortiz. Dominic Breazeale is average at best, and the other guy Luis Ortiz is average at best," Fury said in a Twitter video Monday. "One hundred forty-five years old, someone you already knocked out you bum. You go around fighting the best, you're given the best opportunities.

"You've only fought one good man in your career and that's me, and I beat you, and everyone in the world knows you lost to the Gypsy king." 

Fury added that Wilder couldn't even beat him, even though he was out of the ring for quite some time.

"A half-masked Gypsy king, a Gypsy king that was out of the ring for three years, still beat you, on 50%. You're getting busted next time I meet you. ... I wasn't bothered about you then, and I'm definitely not bothered about you now" Fury said.

This will be the third fight between Wilder and Fury. The first ended in a draw and Fury won the second by technical knockout.

Tyson Fury says he plans to "cheat" again in trilogy fight against Deontay Wilder
