The war of words between Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko is getting nastier than ever before.
On Thursday, former long-time heavyweight champion Klitschko came out with a statement in which he claimed that his rival's recent comments on Jewish people made him sound "like Hitler."

The accusations came a month after Fury, the WBA and WBO heavyweight champion, was filmed in a controversial YouTube video that Klitschko believed was a step too far.
Two weeks ahead of the scheduled rematch between Fury and Klitschko,
which has since been postponed, the Ukrainian fighter suggested that Fury ought to be suspended for how he represented the sport of boxing but, on Friday, the undefeated Manchester fighter hit back in a foul-mouthed response aimed at his rival.

"This is a message for Wladimir Klitschko," Fury said on Instagram.
"He recently said I'm like Hitler in the articles in the newspapers. Wladimir obviously has no education on the matter and he doesn't realise that Hitler killed hundreds of thousands of gypsies, if not millions.
"And to call me that, Wladimir, is a very bad insult, friend. Because a lot of my ancestors were killed and murdered and brutally mass-murdered by Hitler.
"And for you to call me that, is a very bad insult.
"Let's not forget that it's your people, the Ukrainians, were the guards at the death camps where my people were slaughtered.
"So if you really want to go into it, we can both play silly cunts. Can't we? You stupid fucking Ukrainian prick."
