By Ismail Chunara: A couple of days ago, Chris Colbert was interviewed by Nestor Gibbs off Thaboxingvoice, in which he gave his thoughts on Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury.
The interview has now been taken down off Thaboxingvoice and also from FighyHype on youtube.
The interview did its rounds on all social for the last couple of days and caused a huge stir in the boxing world.
Chris Colbert gave his honest opinion on Wilder’s loss, Wilder’s new trainer Malik Scott, Wilder’s suit, and Wilder firing Mark Breland. He spoke about Fury’s gloves and pretty much all the excuses from Wilder.
The person who carried out the Colbert interview was Nestor Gibbs off Thaboxingvoice, one of the hardest-working journalists in the game. It was an excellent Interview from Nestor Gibbs in which he got Colbert to open up about his thoughts on Deontay Wilder.
Today Gibbs reacted to the interview being taken down. Gibbs said, “You big and bad! How you big and bad and crying like a baby. F**k outta here, you big as hell crying.”
Nestor Gibbs implied he got a call off Wilder himself or someone from Team Wilder telling him to take the interview down.
Gibbs also said, “You (Wilder) can’t change everybody’s opinion of what happened. You going to erase everybody?! You (Wilder) going to take everybody down?! You going to put a muzzle on everybody?!”
Gibbs also said, ” Wilder was emotional,” And I have to agree with Gibbs. This all looks very weak on Wilder’s part, taking down an interview in which Colbert, in all honesty, roasted Wilder and made a mockery out of all the silly Wilder excuses.
Wilder should be focused on training and concentrating on his upcoming fight with Tyson Fury, which is just weeks away, instead of worrying about someone speaking his truth and trying to silence them. Wilder doesn’t want people to tell him the truth and is still in denial.
At the Fury Wilder 3 press conference, Wilder decided to say a few words and remain silent for the rest of the press conference wearing headphones. Wilder did not want to engage with Fury or the press because he knew he would probably have to answer some tough questions about all his allegations.
Instead, after the presser, Wilder chose a couple of YouTube channels where the interviewers stroked Wilder’s ego and did not ask him any tough questions about his allegations at Fury.
Some would say this shows Wilders insecurities and how Wilder doesn’t want anyone speaking the truth to him. Does this show that Wilder just wants ‘yes men’ around him. Is Wilder is going to silence them and not want to hear any criticism?
This doesn’t look good on Team Wilder, and it spells disaster come fight night for Deontay.
You can catch Nestor Gibbs from Thaboxingvoice on YouTube, where they discuss all the best boxing topics.
Oh, and By the way, the boxing world is still waiting on any shred of evidence for all of Wilder’s claims.
If it’s true that Wilder or his team took down the Colbert interview, he should not be focused on this; he should be focused on training and Tyson Fury. This should be a huge red flag for Wilder fans, and they should be very worried come fight night.
