The formerly undefeated Deontay Wilder was beaten pillar to post on Saturday night by Tyson Fury in a one-sided heavyweight title fight. Wilder’s loss had many wondering what happened - The Bronze Bomber seemed slow right from the opening bell, and he barely connected on any of his power shots. Today, Wilder offered an explanation to the media.
And it is somewhat bizarre.
Both Fury and Wilder had grand entrances to the ring, with Fury being carried in on a throne while wearing a crown and singing along to “Crazy”. Wilder’s was arguably even...well, wilder - a gigantic black metallic costume with a glowing mask that caused him to wipe his eyes for a few minutes after he took it off.
