    Wilder may be remembered as the greatest loser

    There is talk of Wilder retiring. What will he be remembered for? Knocking Fury down a few times and being clearly outclassed in two of the fights and a controversial draw. There is nobody on his resume. Maybe Ortiz is decent but even in that fight Ortiz was winning most of the rounds before getting knocked out.

    Joshua, Usyk, Ruiz, Whytye, and maybe Joyce are out there to test what he brings. If Wilder retires now it will do nothing for Fury either. He will just be a guy with a punch that Fury fought three times.

    Awful career.

    only fought a live body when he thought the live body was half dead. Fought one other legit opponent, 50 yo Ortiz. Ran from Povetkin because Pov was found to have traces of red bull in his bloodstream.

    dangerous mutha****er but very very disappointing career. If he had a trainer that trained him in fundamentals he could have been a stone cold killer. He had a chin, heart, and sick power. If he trained legs and learned the basics well he could have been a monster

      He didn't call himself the bronze bomber for no reason.

        The greatest loser???

        More like the worst loser in history

        The most creative excuse maker in history

        The most delusional

        Fighting Fury 3 times and getting his ass kicked 3 times for half the money he could have made fighting Dominc Brezeale and Joshua.

        Devastating knockout power

        Big heart

        Those are the things he'll be remembered for

          99% of people will remember him as heavyweight champion who defended his title like ten times.

          But some guys from NSB will apparently remember him as the greatest loser of all time.

          Wonder how Wilder sleeps at night... probably on a pile of money with multiple beautiful women.

            5 year WBC champion is an awful career?

              I would love to be a loser like Wilder is.

              Minus the beatings from Fury, of course.

                Eh, for a guy who started boxing in his twenties, he did pretty damn well.

                Fifty million dollars, and according to an interview he's investing a lot of that into a real estate business.

                  The intricates of his boxing career, that you are trying to highlight? Nobody cares, absolutely nobody cares. Nobody of any real merit, the people who will champion this narrative you are trying to create 'Are nobodies'.

                  What Deontay Wilder will be remembered for is his effort. And regardless of what people say 'He was a good champion, he made 10 defenses of his WBC titles'.

                  Whether it be during a win or a lost, Deontay Wilder every single time completely emptied his tank inside of the ring. People can criticized his technique, and fundamental skills.

                  But Wilder's competitive attitude, and passion for competition was on another level. He did not just disappear after the first or second Tyson Fury fight, in his mind he did not accept defeat. And what I found amusing was that people mocked this, they mocked a man 'Who was not going to give up at the first sign of resistance'. In my book that type of attitude is admirable.

                  The fact of the matter is, he knocked down Tyson Fury 4-times over a duration of 3 fights. Nearly blasted Tyson Fury into another dimension during the first fight 'Which was a draw'. And pushed Tyson Fury in the 3rd fight, probably more than anyone in his entire career has ever pushed him 'Tyson Fury during this trilogy, has had to push himself to limits he has never been before'. He has had to face the ultimate fear of Wilder's power, he has had to rise again from a brutal knocked down, and he has had to come through utter violence in the third fight. Those three fights with Deontay Wilder, were War.

                  Tyson Fury according to large sections of the boxing community, and media 'Is one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, apparently nobody so big has been able to do the things he can do'. And Deontay Wilder on the other hand is a fighter who people mock inside and outside the ring.

                  Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder was not just a fight, it was complete and utter warfare 'More than just business'. And it was warfare because Deontay Wilder did not want to accept defeat, in any sort of highly competitive situation in life 'That is the type of competitor you want on your team'. If a war breaks out tomorrow, ALL these people calling Deontay Wilder a loser or mocking him 'All you guys are ether not getting selected, or you all disappear' That is the realness of that attitude.

                  So for me what Deontay Wilder will be remembered for 'He is a fighter that is not just going to disappear, to beat him is like trying to climb a mountain'. Tyson Fury has beaten Deontay Wilder, he has climbed the mountain. But that same mountain, somebody might fail to climb it next time around.

                  If Deontay Wilder carries on fighting, nobody who faces him 'Is going to go into that fight, comfortable' they will all be apprehensive. Maybe they might not ask their families to be ringside, kids may be told not to watch the fight. That is seriousness of Deontay Wilder, ether which way to approach the challenge 'Climbing the mountain is going to hard, the man is completely unrelenting when it comes to competition'.

                  Overall Deontay Wilder has been a great competitor, his gameness is on another level.

                    Wilder? Who?

                    Hopefully he made his money.
