Jenna J: Do you think this fight brings an element of danger because he is unknown?
Deontay Wilder: Definitely, with the unknown fighters that people aren’t too familiar with, they are the dangerous ones because they have more that they want to prove. They got so much on the line, they want to get their name out a little bit more, they want to get that exposure, and most of all everybody wants to be a heavyweight champion of the world. If you don’t then you’re in the sport for the wrong reasons.
It makes him that more dangerous for sure, but not only him for being unknown, but any fighter that steps in the ring when you’re putting that title on the line, it’s just a different feeling. I got a different feeling when I’m in the ring and I know my title is on the line.
I know if I don’t perform to the best of my abilities or if I’m not training properly and doing all the right things, then someone could very well take this from me. That’s why they say, “you can’t play boxing,” because it’s too dangerous to play around, you always have to train as if you’re the contender. You have to stay hungry and as a champion I’m still hungry, I’m still determined, I’m still motivated. I’m still humble, no one will ever catch me slipping as far as training wise.
I prepare for each and everybody that’s tried to come and take it, and I did say “try” because that is the keyword, they’re gonna try to take it. I’m looking forward to him, I’m looking forward to his size, I’m looking forward to his ability, and most of all to put on a great show for the boxing fans around the world.
Man Wilder is putting the on my face so many times mixed with
Aint Tim the WBO champ? Isn't he about to defend it against Rios? The only roadblock being Hussein taking the step aside money?
Watch mosley talking about the Brooklyn Belt or the NABF California championship or some bootleg shyt IBO asian champ
