    I don't mean to make fun, because this is heartbreaking. He sounds curiously Italian when he talks these days, and looks a good 10 to 15 years older than he is.

    Maybe fans can start some kind of fund for the man, or something.

    Seems as of January, Alonzo Butler was being targeted.

    I have posted previously on his recent attempts to get Lewis and Holyfield in the ring. Sadly, this is real. He is actually trying to get back in the ring, slurred speech and 60 pounds of overweight and all.

    Put him in against Gassiev for Murats HW debut. Be a good scalp with a big name for Murat and Riddick can get his last round out of his system and be at peace with retirement :)

    I don't think he could get 10 million for that, though. And Bowe might be seriously hurt.

    You think maybe if he keeps a high guard ... maybe he could out point Wilder?

    Seriously, it's sad and depressing and I'm assuming he is struggling financially.

    The more tragic thing is, some a-hole promoter somewhere will end up getting Bowe a fight to try and make a few dollars.

    Why am I thinking Bowe Vs YouTuber? A YouTube PPV, it will be a tragic freak show and that seems like something somebody on YouTube would do.

    Dillian Whyte will be interested and Eddie Hearn can sell it to the British football hooligans as some sort of mega fight whilst hearing the usual Dillian Whyte is hard done by rubbish...

    Whyte has more top 10 wins than Wilder.

    Is this really surprising? Tragic but hardly shocking.

    There was a go fund me page/thread on here, it was pulled down twice by mods.He's taking the **** with 10 mil, but I suppose that's how far hes gone, he thinks hes worth that. I don't know whether he saved his house from being repossessed, just sad all round really

    Someone needs to show this to Deontay Wilder as an intervention. This could be him in 20 years.

    It's both. He's clearly suffering from CTE.
    You seen Deontay rambling on about nonsense just prior to his infamous 'To this day' outburst? It's already him

    He is not even training, just sitting talking and he wants $10M ?
    How about $10K as a punching bag/balls against Andrew Golota instead?
