Deontay Wilder’s coach reveals how he reacted to Anthony Joshua's knockout
Deontay Wilder’s coach has revealed exactly what the American heavyweight thought of Anthony Joshua’s latest win.in the seventh round of their fight at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday night to set up a money-spinning showdown with Wilder in January.Wilder knocked out Helenius much quicker in October 2022but needed less than three minutes to get the job done in his comeback fight.
The former WBC heavyweight champion is yet to publically react to Joshua’s first KO win since 2020, but according to his long-time trainer Malik Scott he couldn’t be happier.“We both said the same thing because at first it was looking like it was getting ready to go the distance, so when a knockout came, I called him on FaceTime and he was like, “Phew! I’m glad he got that done, we needed it done just like that.
"He just fought Deontay last October, had one fight back and now he was right back in there fighting Anthony Joshua.” Scott says the plan is for his man to have a tune-up fight against a yet-to-be-decided opponent before squaring off against Joshua in Saudia Arabia at the beginning of 2024.
