Deontay Wilder

The "Bronze Bomber" carried a 41-0-1 record and the hardest right hand in heavyweight history into his Tyson Fury trilogy — and talked like he was the second coming of Ali doing it. After Fury knocked him out in their rematch, Wilder blamed his 40-pound ring walk costume for making his legs tired. Then blamed his trainer. Then blamed the gloves. The excuses were more creative than his footwork. His 42 KOs in 45 fights prove the power was real; the delusion was just realer.
