Back in 2018, the pair fought for the first time, with the result being a draw. Fury then went on to win their next two bouts in 2020 and 2021.
During his appearance on talkSPORT, Wilder was irked by Jordan asking about Fury.
The American said: "No I won't talk about him, we are not going to talk about him at all."
Jordan continued to ask about Fury and touched on Wilder's claims that his opponent 'cheated' during their fight.
Jordan said: "You talked about the water being spiked, the Game of Thrones outfit being too heavy for you."
At this point, clearly frustrated, Wilder fumed: "You can say that, I know the truth, I have the facts."
The 40-year-old then got up out of his chair and stood in front of Jordan, security was forced into action as the 'Bronze Bomber' went close to the former Crystal Palace chairman.
In the end, Wilder stormed out of the studio.
During another interview, Wilder told the Ring Magazine, as per The Sun, that Fury is 'the biggest cheater in boxing history' and said their first fight was marred by 'white supremacy'.
As reported by The Sun, Fury posted a picture of one of the knockdowns from their fights, with a caption that read: "Wilder is and was a p***y [cat emoji]. Little b***h and a s***house also!"
On Wednesday, after reposting a clip of Wilder speaking about his clash with Jordan, Fury accused the American of 'bringing color into sports'.
He wrote on Instagram: "Total b*****d! It's hard for all men! Get on with it!"
During the interview with Boxing King Media, Wilder claimed that Jordan was told 'not to bring up certain situations and certain characters'.
