Deontay Wilder: Will fight for food

But in boxing, if you say you’re not going to fight because you’re friends then you won’t ever fight anyone! A lot of us are friends from sparring and camps and all, but Audley stands in the way of what I’m trying to do. He’s reinvented himself many times and you can never count him out. He’s on a high right now from winning the Prizefighter, but he’s in my way and I’m starving. I’m so hungry I’m like a guy in front of Burger King with a sign that reads, “Will Fight For Food!” I’m starving to be champion.

Starving to be great. So yes, I’m looking for a knockout, because getting through this door leads to all the things I want. I have a lot of fans in England and a lot of people that don’t like me too. That’s okay. The ones that like me, it’s because of the knockouts. The ones that don’t wonder if I really hit that hard.

Either way they all want to see the fight and I want them to tune in. I love how much passion they have for boxing in England. It’s like that in Mexico too. I really can’t wait to arrive! It’s ironic that Tyson Fury comes to America and I’m going to England. But only a fool looks past the fight in front of him and all I think about is Audley Harrison. My fan club is called the Bomb Squad and I want all the English Bomb Squad to come out! BBBBBOOOMMMBBB SSSSQQQUUUAAADDD!!!
