Deontay Wilder sensed overconfidence from Wladimir Klitschko as he continued dominating the heavyweight division for nearly 10 years. That’s why Wilder considered Klitschko’s loss to Tyson Fury as a blessing in disguise for the former champion. Things had gotten too easy for the hard-hitting Ukrainian, and according to Wilder, the only thing that could break Klitschko out of his complacent state was a sobering reminder of what it’s like to lose.

Whatever happens Saturday in London, Deontay Wilder wants Wladimir Klitschko to attack Anthony Joshua like the former champion’s legacy means something to him. The undefeated Wilder was disappointed in the way a reluctant Klitschko allowed Tyson Fury to upset him and take his heavyweight titles nearly 17 months ago in Dusseldorf, Germany. The undefeated Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) out-boxed Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) to win a 12-round unanimous decision and the IBF, IBO, WBA and WBO championships in November 2015.

Wladimir Klitschko clearly is a more experienced, skillful fighter than Anthony Joshua. Deontay Wilder still thinks Joshua has “a great chance” to beat Klitschko on Saturday in London for the same reason Wilder wins his fights. Even though Klitschko can punch, too, Wilder considers Joshua’s power the ultimate equalizer in their 12-round fight for Joshua’s IBF heavyweight title and the vacant WBA and IBO titles.
