Wilder was heavy favourite to retain his WBC heavyweight belt against countryman Breazeale.
And the 33-year-old didn't disappoint, delivering a concussive right hand that ended the contest just 127 seconds in.
But despite the shuddering victory, Fury insisted HE is still the "baddest man on the planet";.
In a video uploaded to social media, the Brit heavyweight said: “I’d just like to say well done to Deontay Wilder in knocking out Dominic Breazeale.
“I got that prediction quite correct."
He then gave his two fellow Brits no chance if they ever got into the ring against Wilder and faced up to the explosive puncher.
Anthony Joshua, you’d get it as well, same thing would happen to you mush
Tyson Fury
He added: "Anyone who wants to go toe-to-toe with Deontay Wilder will have the same fate as Dominic Breazeale and the rest of his 40 other victims.
“Anthony Joshua, you’d get it as well, same thing would happen to you mush.
"Dillian Whyte, you’d get it as well.
“The Bronze Bomber is the most fearsome, most destructive puncher in the heavyweight division, but it’s just a pity that he had to lose to the Gypsy King.
“Anyone who stands in front of Deontay Wilder - he will knock them out.
“Deontay Wilder is the second baddest man on the planet behind the Gypsy King aka Tyson Fury.
