By Scott Gilfoid: Unbeaten heavyweight contender Deontay Wilder (27-0, 27 KO’s) spoke up to address the silly rumors floating around the internet about Audley Harrison (31-6, 23 KO’s) having dropped him while Deontay was helping the 41-year-old Audley out with sparring to get him ready for his fight with David Price last year.
Wilder said to RingTV “A lot of people spread rumors…I know and he knows what really happened…He has already put out there that I dropped him.”
So there it is once again. Audley himself addressed the rumor on his twitter recently, saying that he hadn’t knocked Deontay down in sparring, and the opposite had happened with him getting knocked down.
