Deontay Wilder already has new career lined up after he's done with Anthony Joshua
26/10/2023 15:02
Deontay Wilder recently attended one of Dana White’s Power Slap events and he loved it.
UFC president White founded the Power Slap League in 2022 and it gained notoriety for featuring some brutal knockouts.
For the latest event, Wilder was there to witness and he hinted at a potential career change.
"Live and in person yo this is different and I think I got a career in it,” Wilder said on Instagram.
He then posted one of the most thunderous KO’s from the night, where one contender hits his head on the platform in between him and his opponent as he went down.
Wilder captioned the video: “Lol I'm done where's the door…Dude said where's my money!”
Undoubtedly, Wilder would be a formidable force in the Power Slap league, as he is already considered arguably the hardest hitting heavyweight in boxing history.
But, for the time being at least, Wilder’s focus seems to be on boxing as he hopes to fight long-time rival Anthony Joshua next.
The pair had been expected to clash in Saudi Arabia early next year, but negotiations stalled.
‘The Bronze Bomber’, however, does not want to see the fight go by the wayside again, as he posted a message to AJ on his Instagram, urging them to get the bout done.
“A fight that everybody is looking forward to and hopefully it happens – I’m doing everything in my power to make it happen – I’m referring to the Anthony Joshua fight,” Wilder said.
“So Anthony, you’re hearing it from my mouth, here, personally, from the horse’s mouth himself.
“I’m here, I’m ready, I’m ready to go.
“I heard some things your promoter said that my last fight only lasted a short period of time and I ain’t fought in a year, so he don’t know if I wanna fight or not.
“But I’m letting you know right now, right here, I’m ready to fight.
“I’m ready to get in the ring man, let’s make this the best time of our lives.
“This would be a major disaster if we were never able to get in the ring and put our stamp down in history bro.
“When people think about classic great fights, I want them to think about us as well, being able to do that we’ve gotta get in the ring, that’s what it’s all about.
“The silliest thing I’ve heard is people saying you’re not ready.
“That’s the silliest thing because I don’t believe that, I believe you’re ready.
“I hope you’re ready, I think you’re ready, so let’s make this happen bro, me and you, making history happen.
“I’m looking forward to seeing your response bro, I’ll talk to you soon.”
