Deontay Wilder went toe-to-toe against Dominic Breazeale at last Saturday’s heavyweight boxing match. Wilder finished of Breazeale with a brutal knockout.
Wilder said the following about his match :
“Everything just came out of me tonight,” Wilder said. “I know there was a lot of words and animosity against each other and it just came out tonight. This is what makes boxing so great when you can have so much inside and just overcome.”
“I just told Breazeale I love him and of course I want to see him go home to his family,” Wilder said. “I know we say some things but when you can fight a man and then you can hug him and kiss him, I wish the world was like that. We shake hands and we live to see another day and that’s what it’s all about.”
“I saw him slow up a little bit,” Wilder said. “When I hit him with the right hand the first time his body language changed. When you’ve been in with so many guys, you can recognize body language.”
Joe Rogan, via his Twitter, compared Deontay Wilder to Mike Tyson :
