by Joe Walker: After Saturday’s 1st round stoppage win over Audley Harrison, Deontay “Bronze Bomber” Wilder (28-0, 28 KO’s) now ranked 9th by WBA called out Tyson fury with a rhyme and calling him “Tyson feary.” He has since expressed his desire to fight in the UK again in the future. I hope so. He seems like a very nice person and adds something new to the heavyweight division.
The heavyweight division has been lacking characters, and Deontay adds that and so does Tyson Fury and David Haye.
Looking at it realistically, could the “Bronze Bomber” be fighting a British fighter next or in the near future? Although a fight between Fury and Wilder is one that a lot of people would like to see, in my personal opinion I can’t see it happening.

By Tony Crooks: First of all, I am English and I am proud of my heritage and no comment will ever take that away from me, full stop. Despite this, boxing is about boxing and boxers are about boxers. If a boxer is good and he comes from Outer Mongolia or the North Pole, so what, too much emphasis is put on where a pugilist is born. Whether he is white, black, yellow or orange it does not matter to me, all that interests me is the skills that they possess.
By Sean David: Heavyweight contender Deontay Wilder (28-0, 28 KO’s) has an impressive record. However, it only looks impressive on paper. At the moment the record is only as strong as that paper.
