Speaking of which, even Deontay Wilder himself is now a bit of a surprise. After Deonta Wild spoke to reporters about his willingness to play former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Naganno in a mixed rules grappling match, rumors of Deonta Wilder's possible retirement intensified and began to take shape.
In response to this rumour, D'Anta Wild felt the need to come forward and explain. In an interview with reporters, he said that although he is now 38 years old, he has no plans to retire because he has been involved in boxing relatively late and has not suffered any injuries.
In the interview, Deonta Wild told reporters: "I'm still young, I'm still young, I'm just over 38 years old, and you have to know that I was pretty late in boxing, I didn't start playing officially until I was 21 years old. So I didn't have any major injuries to my body. I can still fight, and I can still hype myself up and do my job well. I'm full of energy and I'm a seasoned veteran athlete with a lot of experience. ”
On the ground, Deonta Wild really has no intention of retiring at the moment, and he plans to face former WBO heavyweight world champion Joseph Parker in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, on December 23 for his final fight of 2023.
As for 2024, Deonta Wilder's preferred opponent is still the former two-time heavyweight world champion Anthony Joshua, but the current Anthony Joshua can't make his own decisions, and his event promoter Eddie Hearn prefers to arrange Anthony Joshua to participate in the IBF heavyweight world boxing title in 2024. After Fury's heavyweight world title unification fight, the winner was willing to give up the IBF heavyweight world title in order to have a rematch as soon as possible.
However, this situation is not a bad thing for Deonta Wilder, as it also means that the WBC Heavyweight World Title will be vacant, so that Deonta Wilder, the legal challenger of the WBC Heavyweight World Title, has a chance to return to the World Championship.
In any case, Deonta Wild does still have the ability to continue to compete for the heavyweight world title, so I really don't want him to leave the boxing ring so early. As long as he can stay fit and stay focused and passionate about the game, he will be able to overcome all odds and become the heavyweight world champion once again.
