    Is deontay wilder's meltdown the biggest in boxing history?

    I personally don't remember anyone getting such a complete meltdown after losing a fight.

    Wilder made Foreman look like a gracious loser in comparison.

      Oliver McCall was much worse.After a couple of rds he negan acting strangely. He had a complete mental breakdown. He'd gad "problems" before the fight which were brushed over. Mills Lane the ref .said he saw strange things in rd 3 when McCall was dropping hisn hands in clinches and his eyes were tearing over. Lane said ?My gosh" this guy is crying. For the next two rds he wandered around the ring, crying, refusing to fight, so had to be DQ0'd.

      So I nominate McCall.

        I remember the guy named Mike Jones. he was a welterweight prospect, unbeaten, signed to Top rank. He was high ranked, in line for Pacquiao fight. After a KO loss to Bailey he took another loss and disappeared.

          What happened with McCall was really sad, it was clearly deep mental health issues and he shouldn’t have been allowed to continue in a sport where he accumulated trauma to the head.

          Wilder on the other hand is just a massively sore loser, which is hilarious.

            Wilder just being a big sore loser.

            He didn't have a meltdown like Oliver McCall.

            Hell Junma Lopez had more of a meltdown blaming the ref for his ******** problems. Which was underatedly hilarious.

              Perhaps Andrew Golota after the two Bowe fights.

              From being extremely close to the top of the heavyweight list to being considered scum and losing all faith in himself, all in a matter of months.

                I'm not sure we can call it a Wilder melt down, I think most of us could of predicted all these crazy excuses and blaming everybody but himself. He has made excuses in fights where he has not exactly shown but won by KO. Unless he sparkles there is excuses.

                Dont forget after the 1st fight there was excuses about injury, illness, baby oil, biased ref and gypsy magic. So that was after a draw, we could imagine he would take a loss even worse.

                He's a narcissistic ego maniac. Taking defeat graciously was never guna happen.

                    Easily. We’re going to see him with Alex Jones blaming the “elite” at this rate
