I don't have a problem with Wilder getting shine it's that the article is titled Can he save boxing from Mayweather wtf
Boxing is not goin anywhere. Why does it need saving? And again about goin into his personal life. I mean just stfu about that shyt cuz these same journalist IGNORE other athletes and celebs with a different skin tone who have done the same thing and much worse
The article isn't really about Floyd though, but what she did say about Floyd is true. His stans may not like it, but him beating women is apart of his legacy. Just like when people who dont like Jordan, they mention his gambling. Or Mike Tyson and his rape case.
Also,why would she need to bring up other athletes/celebs when she's only talking about Boxing and who can basically bring Boxing back after Floyd breh?
Floyd Mayweather, the country's most famous boxer, is a misogynist and batterer.
"There are really no fighters in the pipeline," Robert Boland, a professor of sports business at New York University, told Reuters ahead of the match that was supposed to recapture the nation’s lasting attention: Mayweather's May fight with Manny Pacquiao, the Filipino eight-division champ. “This is a time when boxing is probably at its lowest point since the beginning of the 20th century and the rise of pro fighting."
Despite Mayweather-Pacquiao's record-breaking ratings, Pacquiao looked long past his prime and the fight didn’t live up to the hype. Mayweather claims his dominating victory over Andre Berto earlier this month was his last. But it's likely that American boxing hasn't seen the last of its woman-battering standardbearer: Few people believe Mayweather, now 49-0, will quit the sport for good before breaking his current tie with Marciano for the longest unbeaten streak in professional boxing history.
Wilder's fans think he's the last, best chance to save American boxing: the anti-Mayweather -- the kind of charismatic, likeable, underdog hero the sport needs.
That's all that was posted about Floyd in that long article....7 sentences. That's it.
Besides, Wilder & Wilder's trainer spoke on it himself which is probably why she titled the article what she did:
"I honestly feel like when Floyd retires, the boxing world will be depending and eyeing and looking at Deontay Wilder," said Damarius “Cuz” Hill, one of Wilder's trainers.
"I will be that guy to change this sport, especially in the heavyweight division," Wilder said. "A lot of people have lost interest. I’m the right man for the job … I want to make it bigger and better than it ever have been before.”
The article was farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr from being about Floyd. She should've edited the title and just called it "Can Deontay Wilder Save Boxing" and excluded Floyd's name
