    Pretty sure Zhang stands on his foot while throwing the left.
    Means after Wilder gets caught he can’t move out properly.
    Combination of that and getting rocked causes him to look to the ref.

    Stop it with the Dustin jokes, it’s old now and the equivalent of going to golf and yelling “get in the hole”.

    He thought Zhang hit him with an elbow? It was very odd...

    I stole that from Youtube, but i died laughing at it:
    "He turned around like “who threw that brick?”

    According to the Neutral Corner podcast that spin around is something he does in training, amongst other bizarre moves.
    Evidently not expecting to be walloped in the process!

    After he “tasted” that second last punch from Zhang, a now hungry Deontay knew the end was very nigh - so he called out to the ref to order him Sweet and Sour Pork with Fried Rice so that it would be delivered to his dressing room just in time for his early arrival back.
