Wilder and fans, just please stop

“He wasn’t a true champion. His whole career was consisted of lies, contradictions and gifts. Facts and now we know who was running from who!!!”

Deontay saying that Anthony Joshua was never “a true champion” after the British fighter lost his title in a shocking manner is rather absurd. Deontay quickly followed that absurdity up with proven lies by implying that the reason for the failed fight was because Joshua's team were simply avoiding it. "Now we know who was running from who!" Let’s do a quick breakdown of this nonsense.

“He wasn’t a true champion. His whole career was consisted of lies, contradictions and gifts.”

Listen, we’re talking about an Anthony Joshua who has been in very tough in comparison to Wilder at the same stage of their careers/fights. For example:

• In 23 fights Joshua has faced Andy Ruiz, Alexander Povetkin, Joseph Parker, Carlos Takam, Wladimar Klitschko, Dominic Breazeale, Charles Martin, Dillian Whyte, and Kevin Johnson.
• In Wilder's first 23 fights he fought Harold Sconiers, Justin Nichols, Marlon Hayes, as well as Damon Reed, both cruiserweights with his standout opponent being journeyman Owen Beck.

When Joshua had bad day at the office it was against Klitschko, Parker, Ruiz, Whyte, etc. When Wilder had a bad day at the office, it was against Sconiers (who he almost lost to), Molina, Nichols, etc.

“Facts and now we know who was running from who!!!”

Wilder’s reaction is laughable considering that it was Wilder himself who turned down a 120 million contract to fight Breazeale for less than 10 million. Joshua said that Fury and Wilder were ducking him, and criticized them for fighting, "cab drivers and binmen." This is basically proven in the case of Wilder by the fact that he turned down the enormous contract.

Wilder, instead of laughing and goading Joshua and his fans, you should be crying in your breakfast cereal at all the money that just evaporated before your eyes.

 

I head ya man, I get that. I'm talking about the utterly delusional Wilder fans. I don't even want to go on the Wilder fan YouTube channels right now haha. I can only imagine.

 

The laughable irony in those facts is hilarious.

 

Wilder taking on Klitschko in his 19th fight might've resulted in permanent brain damage for him. A few fights earlier Sconiers had him rolling around the canvas.

 

Absolutely. He isn't afraid of failure and take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow as a fighter and I see him returning stronger. It's insane how much people discourage this boxing these days and covet the undefeated record as much as they do. If you fight the best, you'll probably lose a few.
