3 mins read

Deontay Wilder has been knocked out for the very first time in his career that has seen him knocking other 41 boxers before Tyson Fury.

Tyson Fury continued his unbeaten record after he won the WBC Championship from Deontay Wilder on their rematch.

A couple of months back, the boxers had a brief exchange on social media where Deontay Wilder told Tyson Fury that he won’t take it easy on Fury on their rematch and not even the Almighty God could save him on their fateful rematch on February 22.

“I told you before our first fight that I was going to baptize you. And I did. But not even God can save you on February 22. I promise you that.” Deontay Wilder’s Facebook post read after he saw Tyson Fury posting a posting inside a Church.

Most critics are saying that God humbled Deontay Wilder before the Gypsy King himself and from the contrast of the two posts, you can see where their logic is coming from.

Tyson Fury won the rematch of their bout with Deontay Wilder with a technical Knock out giving the Bomb Zquad boxer from Alabama his first-ever defeat on his perfect boxing record.

“The king has returned to the top of the throne,” said Fury, who remains unbeaten after 31 bouts.

Tyson Fury had nothing but respect to Deontay Wilder, the Gypsy King didn’t have anything bad to say about Deontay Wilder but showered him with respect after the title bout.

“I just want to say a big shout out Deontay Wilder,” he said. “He manned up, he really did show heart of a champion.

“I hit him with a clean right hand and dropped him, and he got back up and battled on into round seven.

“He is a warrior, he will be back, he will be champion again.”

 

I am a Pan-Afrikanist to the core and love to let the world know what they are missing in Africa. I might do that through music and some interesting posts from time to time so please bare with me.

I will always be real though, that's a guarantee.
