If Wilder grabbed/kissed a reporter, what would the response be?

    I think you're right. If Wilder had done it people would be asking for him to get arrested and charged with sexual assault. With Pulev it's seen as a funny moment.

      He doesn’t touch on racism, i think he’s above that. The closest he gets is talkin about how a dog can’t screw a cat and make a catdog because they are different species, unlike humans who can breed with whoever because we’re all ONE species.
      Anyway, an idea for some background noise when reading boxing articles.
      What, this one?



      Ain't read it yet (I got about a half dozen books on the go already) but I borrowed it on a recommend off a friend a few months back.. maybe time to check it out.

            It would likely boost Wilder's career since no one knows who he is outside of boxing fans. He'd get the needed exposure he's been seeking with the casual audience--no publicity is bad publicity.

              no offense but im not sure how big womens rights are in some eastern euro countries so i would expect there to be more reaction to wilder doing that but would it be more than if say fury did it, have no idea

              well i do actually, fury fans would slag wilder off and wilder fans would slag fury off

                Wilder is black...so nothing.

                He could claim that a white female reporter reminded him of the injustices suffered by his ancestors.

                Or just blame Trump?

                    This is true. The only attention he's gotten outside of boxing fans was when the "to this day" meme was trending for a few hours on twitter.

                      All she would to have to do is throw a jab and Wilder would just stand there with a confused look on his face for 12 minutes.
