Wilder will face Fury for the third time, for the WBC world title, on October 9 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

In their last meeting, in February 2020, Fury dominated the action and stopped Wilder in the seventh round. 

Earlier this year, Wilder hired former foe Malik Scott to train him for the upcoming fight.

Rather than use new tactics, Tyson would like to see Wilder us his dangerous power to get the stoppage.

“I like Wilder but is he going in there to win or is he going in there for a big pay day? They should go all out for five or six rounds. If you catch him, you catch him. Go all out, win or lose," Tyson said.

Another former undisputed heavyweight champion, Evander Holyfield, is not in favor of seeing Wilder using new tactics in the fight.

He would rather see Wilder do what comes natural to him.

“In all these things you work on in being the very best. Is he getting it to the point where he can remember to do them as a natural thing? The worst thing you can do for a fighter is let somebody knew come in there giving him something new to do. They take it all of a sudden you start thinking too much," Holyfield said to Fighthype.com.

“Boxing is a reaction sport. If you and me were boxing, you might not be comfortable, but I’m comfortable about how far I can get to for me to make you do something that I can counter a shot. The thing is with Deontay he started boxing at a late age. A lot of times when somebody starts boxing at a late age, they get one good style and that’s it.

“A lot of them don’t know how to make a lot of adjustments, so I don’t know if this is him [Wilder] or not. He’s one of my favorite fighters. Stick to what you’re really good at and implement it slowly, and maybe he can and maybe not."
