Wilder’s Injuries

[Eff Pandas]

What's up, NC. He got hit in the same spot as Joshua did. Joshua never got back his legs either.

Yea that's what it looked like to me too. Towards the back of the head. Lotsa similarities to the AJ loss. Same shot, never really got back into the fight (although I think AJ did a better job of it), both out in the 7th & both looked like they were done & ready to quit but neither officially quit.

I heard on Twitter that Deontay didn't even go to the hospital as reported (#fakenews) he just got looked at & stitched up in the locker room. Not sure if that's 100% legit but haven't seen anyone confirm he went to the hospital after the initial news or was released so I suspect that's more on point then the early reports.

The jaw stuff seemed overhyped to me. No sh^t he's swole up. He's in a fooking fight. It didn't look like I'd expect a broken jaw or close to it injury to look. The blood he was spitting out was the only thing that seemed like it could indicate a more serious injury to his jaw to me.

Yeah. The injuries weren't serious.

Apparently not.

Here's the proof:

Doesnt sound like he had any injuries before fight. Fury just made him look bad.
Although wilder looked in bad way after fight im not surprised he's ok. Fury didn't land a lot, a lot missed it got a bit messy in there with wrestling

That’s odd af that he wasn’t required to go to the hospital, for NSAC liability if nothing else. That’s why I was asking, haven’t found any reports of what happened. If my ear was bleeding the way DW was...I’m gonna make that trip to the ER

Jay Deas, one of his trainers said it was a cut on his ear that required stitches and not a burst eardrum.

Supposedly he did bust his ear drum and go to the hospital

No he didn't, Deas and Finkel have confirmed he did not.

Deontay Wilder ultimately did not need to go the hospital though it had been announced he would. He did not have an eardrum problem but got a few stitches for a cut inside his ear, Wilder co-manager Shelly Finkel tells ESPN. Wilder was examined and... https://t.co/yZfx6X0Cgo

Heard his soul was taken from him. Not sure if he’ll recover from that.

If it was NY I'd agree. I'm sure NV makes fighters sign something that diminishes or kills their liability but idk that for a fact.

My guess is if the injuries aren't immediately serious it's all at the fighters discretion if he wants to go to the hospital. I'm sure they'd advise a fighter if there is something in need of getting checked out ASAP, but I'd assume if it's not immediately problematic they tell them to go see their own doctor within the next couple days or something like that.
