Deontay Wilder’s Boxing Career Is Torn Apart And 'Exposed' In Fan’s Brilliant Twitter Thread

A boxing fan has launched a scathing attack on Deontay Wilder's career in a comprehensive viral Twitter thread.

Twitter user Olufemi Adebimpe came to the defence of Anthony Joshua after he avenged his only defeat to Andy Ruiz Jr last December.

And Adebimpe called out fans criticising 'AJ' and those sharing clips of Wilder's knockouts as a way to highlight his 'supremacy' over the heavyweight division.

The Twitter user tweeted: "Almost every time there is an Anthony Joshua fight, those who have become overnight heavyweight experts from watching clips of Deontay Wilder pummeling [sic] fighters crawl out of their holes with generalized opinions about the supremacy of Deontay Wilder.

"Let me educate you!"

Wilder is accused of hand-picking fights with boxers outside of the top 20 and only agreeing to face Tyson Fury because he was 'in bad shape [and] had been out of boxing for three years.'

The KO artist was also blasted for 'running scared' from WBC mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte.

The thread has amassed over 3,000 retweets and reached 4,500 likes at the time of this writing.

The 34-year-old WBC kingpin will now defend his championship in his hotly-anticipated rematch with Tyson Fury on 22nd February.
