Who randomly saw this in their recommendations after tyson beat him.
Noreen Ashraf me😂
Same.
It’s not random is it?
Noreen Ashraf same lol
🖐
He started boxing 3 years before this... and won a bronze medal. Think about that for a second
Samuel Munoz he was also a giant for the weight 91kg (200lbs)
And he made the USA olympic team in ONE YEAR
And AJ won gold in three years. But let’s not talk about that shall we. Let’s talk about how wilder just got exposed as the fraud he is by the true number 1 heavyweight.
Toby Playzzz Well congratulations to Tyson Fury. If you want call Wilder a fraud then AJ a fraud too, didn’t he get knockdown 4 times and quit against a cherrypick in Andy Ruiz. Tyson Fury is an established elite fighter no comparison, he dethroned Klitschko before AJ unlike AJ who fought him off a 2 year lay off and a loss. So your comment null and void.
Crowned King AJ has actually fought top 10 fighters. Wilders first step up to a fully fit top 10 opponent and he gets smashed. All credit to him for stepping in the ring, and clearly wanting to continue, but he got smashed. After that tragic performance he is out of the equation. He cant reinvent himself and come back. The ducking fraud is gone. Long live the gypsy king
No matter what anyone says, he did a lot in a short period of time.
He should go back to olympics now that he's even better.
@@hardowider5054 I don't think you can go back to the Olympics once you turn pro.
Edit: Nevermind I looked it up, they changed that rule in 2016.
@@rafayg7376 oh I was bout to say didn’t they change that rule bout 2015 2016 😂
and lost everythin in a short period of time too
He struggles against Europeans fighters
This is before he started wearing heavy outfits to the ring
Haha that’s going to stick with his name for ever now
🤣🤣
😂
These weight jokes have already gotten old......
kingquestOZ A wilder fan I see lmfao
He was more technically sound back then than he is now
It may just look that way because he was fighting amateurs and now he’s fighting the best of the best
He certainly looks more fresh and hungry
Lol I was about to type the same thing
AK47 Tetris you mean like the shots in the back of the head like Fury gave him in the rematch?
You can't be serious....
1:47 "You'll break my arm man" LOL
Lmfao
If Wilder knew what he knew he would never lost
Mr Pepper hahaha
Ricardo Cazares what
Mr Pepper he don’t belong in boxing 😂 he’s a one trick phony
The only man who came close to defeat Charlie Zelenoff
There’s only 1 TYSON FURY HAHHA
he did not come close to defeating charlie he slapped up charlie
You idiot you have guts to fight against Wilder
Sharb Nah Charlie Zelenoff destroyed him with his signature move, the rabbit squat
Tyson Fury vs Charlie Zelenoff
Most amateur boxing fighters: lemme dance around this guy and outscore him on points
Wilder in an amatuer fight: Imma knock this mf out
Mike Tyson was like that too lol !
Yeah it is. Lol
That's what most Olympic boxing matches are comprised of.
Not every single fighter of course, but you'd be lying if you contested that it is not the primary strategy.
@Stefan Kovacevic Sir. Please stop with the disrespectful comments. Show some class.
Always had that killer instinct I guess.
😂😂😂😂😂
Man his trainers made a mess out of a really great raw talent. You can see he has more than enough coordination speed and reflexes to have been a much more technical fighter. They chose the easy way...
What talent are you seeing? Big lanky useless swinger
FOUR B he had been boxing for 2 years by the time this fights took place. Against the best amateurs in the world by the way. If that is not talent I dont know what is...
Alvaro Wrong he had been boxing nearly 4 years and only won bronze, talent is AJ boxing 2 years and won gold at olympics a true champion, wilder is a fraud who won’t win his title back
@@XampIe he started boxing when he was 20(mid 2006) and went to the Olympics in (2008) wether you admit it or not, that's impressive bro. You just don't like Wilder, for a late bloomer, he's not bad! And achieved many great things. He just got beat by a better boxer, I'm not a huge Fury fan, but I'll admit, Fury is a heck of a boxer, with raw talent and skill, I respect that about Fury. The best man won, dosent negate the fact that Wilder achieve great things, and he is indeed a raw talent. And he will be back, even if he doesn't get his titles back, it still shows he has a heart of a champion, and he's a warrior, as well as Fury, AJ, Dillian Wyte, Joseph Parker, Ortiz, ect!
Joshua Ramseur he never it was October 2005 so 3 years he started. I’ll never rate him it’s boxing and he can’t box he has a big right hand but that’s it, till he fights Whyte, Povetkin, Doubrie, Usyk, Wallin & AJ I’ll never rate him because he’s only fought Fury and got smashed twice.. Ortiz is a old man and nearly put him away says a lot about who he’s fought.
He grew, His body grew, Legs remained the same.
That's the why he lose he skipped leg day for a decade
Nice observation
Skills the same as well.
Skipping leg day
Abiral Sangroula well he isn’t doing Muay Thai
This was before he discovered his right hand
And before he developed any boxing skill oh wait........
crazy how far he went in the Olympics. He started boxing very late in his life and won the bronze medal.
Started boxing for his daughter (born with Spina bifida)
Yeah, now imagine how strong Fury is for absolutely obliterating Wilder😂😂😂
@@zxcytdfxy256 haha, he lost the right hand in that fight. Fury gave him the shock of his life
Lol
Legend says he purposely got the bronze medal because “The Bronze Bomber” sounded nicer to him. Otherwise...
Oliver McCall Exactly haha
How about knocked on the canvas twice medal?
Bluer than Xephos 😂
Muhamaad ali has touched canvas floor in his career. There's no shame in it. Real men continue to fight. Wilder does not quit.
BeingWokeTV what im say they thing every boxer has to be like Floyd undefeated f that bro he ain’t even the greatest
Wilder was more technical than now ,they increase his right hand but they gave up all the others tools he could have
For real
That left hook was nasty
@@SliceofBread123 indeed, it s sad that he doesnt use it anymore
It shows he could learn these skills again if he wanted
@@juanburgos8176 that's why i blame his coaches
He actually was able to do combos before, 1-2 then left hook
Offense way terrible though
reception blcp Have to keep in mind Olympic boxing is just a bit better than amateur boxing in standards and he only got bronze
@@entername_ thats boxing "fans" in a nutshell though lol. Every major fight they have the blueprint on what said fighter shouldve done lmao
He still does that now you muppet.
What dropped Fury in the 12th?
A one-two followed by a left hook.
@@ReservoirPunk You kidding me? didn't you notice only the right hand hurt fury.. the left was barely even a punch he slapped with it he didn't even turn his body like atleast in this video here.
He needs to change his coaching staff all,he was good back then why now. The coach has to be fired with no time.
Only thing they do at Wilders camps is working on his right hand. Jay deas does’t care about Wilder that’s why he didn’t want to throw in the towel. Because he wasn’t worried about him and didn’t want to take the blame so Wilder would fire him
He was good then because he’s fighting BUMS.
Same as he has his whole carrer, Fury was the first real fighter he faced. And he lost TWICE!
If you think he can perform like this against a motivated fury means you dont understand that there are certain levels of greatness.. it's like ur saying brian scalabrine can outwork michael jordan
Lol he lost literally one fight and won 41 with 10 title defenses... hmm
Not his trainers. Wilder is his worst enemy, his boxing skill is trash here.
1:47 you will break my arm
Surprised to see Wilder use angles in these fight clips. That's what he is missing today.
Imagine training in boxing you're whole life just to get beaten by a guy who took it up 3 years ago
Who took it up 3 years ago
@@zaklong2592 wilder at that time
fury has been boxing since he was 6
@@flix4809 it's not about Fury. It's about his opponents at this olympic competition.
Look up Rocky Marciano :p
Even though Wilder won bronze at this Olympic Games against these opponents he still achieved so much more in his professional career now, u gotta love his determination and work ethic never give up and believe in yourself. Truly inspirational
Lol “inspirational” funny one that.
work ethic? Marc Breland says otherwise. Wilder doesnt run, doesnt like to do hard work and is basically untrainable
Dang Wilder was so much more technically sound back then. Imagine if he was actually trained after the olympics by real trainers and not just a bunch of bums he picked off the street.
He was a bit all over the place swinging, pushing, no tidy neat punches
You have no idea what you’re talking about. Mark Breland, was a former Olympic gold medalist, world gold medalist and 2 time world champion. He’s one of the best technical minds around
Hes 42-1 I think he did alright...
@@jvillzy exactly loses once against a really great boxer, and all of a sudden he is wasted talent. People are idiots.
Mark Breland is no bum. One of the best amateurs ever.
That left hand was working too wit wilder back in the day 😏💣
Still find it weird how haters try to discredit this man knowing the fact he came into boxing late and the only one to medal in 2008 for usa boxing. No skills blah blah blah but became a world champ and defended it 10 times with the highest ko ratio in history. Doubt after doubt and all the critics proved them wrong 40 straight times. What you do? Wheres your medal? Exactly can't even compare.
I respect for this, I joined the boxing game late and people tell me it’s too late but I look at Wilder and see what he accomplished in a short time and later than his age
It's amazing what he was able to do with very little boxing skills, and experience! Respect!
18 months of training and made it what a story 🤯
He has etched his name as one of the most ferocious strikers of all time if not the most.The Bronze bomber is still one of all time greats of modern era.
Respect !!!!
No he is not
Ahhh so this is why he calls himself the bronze bomber..
It’s a reference in a way. Joe Louis, who was the Heavyweight champion back in the 30s and 40s, was known as “The Brown Bomber.” So when Wilder won the bronze medal, they went with “The Bronze Bomber” to pay homage
@@PrimereOfficial did joe lewis win a brown medal at the olympics?
@@drunk1kangaroo 😂
@@drunk1kangaroo no he was from Alabama that is why he paid homage to him
@@HOODSTOCK118 Joe Louis was from Detroit
1 powerful combo: left jab, right straight(hookish) followed by left hook. Now repeat 1000 times to get Deontay Wilder
With this combo he maked many millions and was a heavyweight Champion.
The fact that Deontay wilder made it to the trials and got on the Olympic team in 9 months. He had 35 dights and little amount of amateur experience And was the least likely to get on the team in the trials. Yet still, he made it to the olympics and won a medal.
Yawn
He actually fights better here than he does professionally
His stance was better 😭
Probably because his eardrum wasn't pissing blood
That's definitely not true at all. His form is much worse here than what he has had these past years.. I'm thinking the only reason you'd be saying that is because he was winning these fights by rushing his opponents slugging away and using his taller frame to measure and control in clinches. His form was definitively not better back then.. People gotta stop this narrative. Fury fought the best wilder to date, wilder is in his prime he's never been better. Fury is just that good..
I think wilder was in his prime 2 years ago
Freddy BayBay definitely, all fury did was exploit the simple flaw that wilder can't fight backwards. only when rushing his opponent.
@@freezeGmd everybody that fury outclassed is past prime... Maybe he make them look like that?
Wilder looks hella skilled right now than what he his right now hes just a one punch man he had so much tools he used back then he needs to get these tools again and honestly if he had the same tools against fury the outcome would've been different to a split decision or knockout
yeah i agree and you can see that wilder was so fresh of energy and hungrier than in the fight with fury
Yeah he needs to change his team and get hungry again, he needed this loss to go back to basics he got sloppy. He’s a warrior he’ll be back stronger 💪🏽
Haha what? Are we watching the same video here? He has THE shittiest footwork out of all the heavyweight champions I've seen. Watch this video again, with a critical eye
@@wyldeyouth Wilders fans are amusing hey lol
The Olympics scoring system is weird. Wilder was landing shots and the score wasn't going up. There must be so much robberies in amateur boxing
A notable one I remember is Mayweather getting a bronze. Absolute robbery, particularly since he's probably the best technical boxer alive today
@@idunnodo1142 in my memories it's that and the roy jones jr robbery
You have no idea. It's worse than it looks.
Ruled bro
Who’s here after
Being born?
dude you're late. I'm not even born, and I'm here
You're mum
BOMB ZQUADDDDD. You are the real champ Deontay. You didn’t start boxing till 21 so it’s incredible how far you’ve come
Thanks for the upload...BOMBSQUAD!!!!!!!!!!!
This Wilder had better basics than the one now that spams the right hand most of the time.
Aaron Shanker he started relying on it too much 😢
He actually doesn’t spam it... just tries to land that one devastating right hand
Aaron Shanker yeah doesn’t spam it, will literally sit there all day getting his head punched off waiting for an opportunity to throw it
Tbh tho it works most of the time
Time Shakes he needs to focus on defense, consult with the mayweathers or something
Most people don’t really appreciate this guy. I wasn’t born in the 80s or 70s I couldn’t see Tyson or Holyfield (only old videos), so I’m thankful to grow in Deontays and Aj‘s era, they both are cool guys and really special boxers
@TAMIL TAMIL yes we can be thankful for all the boxers we got today! the list is ling and it hopefully gets longer because boxing is a beautiful sport!
if that uppercut connected at 4:09 it would have been the end of that boy
ebk well he missed cus of his flawed fighting. That uppercut can’t knockout fury can it?
that “boy” is Clemente Russo, he used to be a much more devastating hard hitter than Wilder. matter of fact, only god knows how Wilder even got to the semifinals since the moroccan literally got robbed
@@giulioska7643 lol yeah wilder has the case to be hardest hitting HW ever with his KO rate, Russo will never get close to that. Also they were clearly not scoring for wilder in that Morocco match he was dominating that fight.

That hood hand spin at 00:34 🤣🤣
Yooooooo I thought I was the only one that saw that lmfao
😂😂😂
That’s an accomplishment to make to the Olympic and win a medal
A TRUE testament to WILDER'S accomplishments an where he is today
At the hospital, currently.
He's at the hospital today
He's at the hospital and will be out soon but you know what else he is? Millions of dollars richer and more successful than you keyboard warriors will ever be.

B..CH !!!..
Raaah he a completely different fighter , moving on his toes and coming forward with power
The way he smiles with them flowers🤣
He’s fighting better here than he did with Tyson the 2nd time
Well now, at least we know he can actually throw a combo
He was much more dynamic back then.
Extremely talented started boxing at 19 years old
He lost because his head guard was to heavy 🤣🤣
lmaooo
HoneyBadger *too
@@monki4363 2🖕
HoneyBadger ok boomer
No he lost because his opponent had removed the padding in his head guard
In my head :
Fury gets gold
AJ gets silver
Wilder gets bronze
Therefore he was a born bronze bomber
Wilder would knock out aj cooood
AJ got Gold
Fury got Nothing
& Fury has been caught cheating in the past
His power took him a long way
He looks more skilled here as amateur
You can't hate on his career, he achieved alot and will get more big wins in the future
Every fighter can lose sometime. Wilder lose it's normal, why people are so cruel making it so big?
The start of the bronze bomber!
That Italian who beat Wilder,Usyk smashed him in the 2012 Olympics finals. Yet people still think Usyk can't mix with these big boys 🤦♀️
A technical and agressive Wilder. Now he’s nothing but a sledgehammer.
Ion care how fundamentally unsound he is making it to the Olympics and meddling with only 3 years if training is not an easy task to be honest is almost impossible fighting guys that haven been working for this their entire life.
American Heavyweights are a dying breed. He made the team due to the lack of HW talent in the USA. He has the size, length, speed, power to compete with anyone
Not impossible
@@joshuafyb4114 you go do it then.. seems more challenging every minute you think about it huh ?
Only possible in the Heavyweight division....still a feat though
Wilder comeback stronger third time.he prove wrong everyone. Bronze bomber. Love from pakistan.
Yes, and then the 4 time, 5 time ecc ecc
He lost twice. Why fight a third time?
He'll prove no one wrong anyone who knows anything about boxing can see Fury has way too much skill, size, power, technique and ring IQ for Wilder. Only way is if Fury goes off the deep end again and stop working hard!!!
Octavio he lost twice. He tied it with the knockdown and that’s it. He was outboxed and outclassed in both fights
Octavio ye only reason it tied was because of Wilder’s equalizer his right hand. Up until that point fury was out boxing him. This time fury didn’t let that punch happen and kept wilder awkward because he can’t handle when his opponent is super aggressive.
The metal in his hand gave him his confidence and got him believing that he only needs one punch after the Olympics.
A nice one, Wilder has improved his dynamite a lot.
Why is this in my recommendation after he lost to fury
To show you where he came from and that's just a beginning for the bronze bomber the biggest came back is on Baby
@@abdillahmawallon6762 comeback? Even if he wins the next fights its 2-1 Tyson.
Because they knew you'd click it.
Because you’ve been watching videos with his name in it so you’re now getting recommendations about him
@@JayJayK2K 1-1-1
Reduce the volume of the music...geez. It's better to listen to the real sounds of the fight.
Can we just take a second to acknowledge the quality refereeing @1:10 ?
Ive never seen a boxer become less technical over time
If he started early he would probably the most dangerous Heavyweight ever.
What age Wilder start boxing
@@hitishthakur6695 19
Hitish Thakur he was boxing only 1 year before making the Olympic team
Basketball is his first sport somewhere in Rural 🇺🇸...
Thank you guys ❤💯🥊
Would have won gold if it wasn't for his gown being so heavy.
Jajajajwjajajajajaajajajajajajajaj
He's always had power in those hands
"you need to be perfect for 36 minutes.i only need to be perfect for 2 seconds" TO THIS DAY
He will be adding to his collection on KO's on Saturday 22nd Feb.
@Oliver McCall 😭😂😂😂😂
Did not age well 😂😂😂
Loooooool
Wilder got battered and was pissing blood through his ear. What a joke 😂😂😂
London Taylor the comeback will be glorious baby!
His excuse for losing to the italian was that his headguard was too heavy so his neck was tired
He has been fighting " To this daaaaaay"
May he did not have skills but this man got a HEART
Its amazing that he was able to be this good in 3 years back then and what he has accomplished so far. But I wished he got a trainer to refine his skills man with that power if he was a boxer instead of fighter he would be the 🐐. But hope he can bounce back
~ *JOKE OF THE CENTURY* ~
Wilder : "My punches are harder than *IRON MIKE's*
😂😂😂🙌
I think he was better back then, with his leg movement and technique . But now he only depends on his right hand punch. Hopefully he ll get better and continue to fight , what doesn’t break you makes you stronger 💪🏾 🥊
Dude came I'm off of a beer truck STARTED boxing for 3 years and won a bronze medal. Crazy
And that's why he's known for bronze bomber
He seemed to focus more on his fundamentals here, he lost that along the way focusing to much on just landing the right hand
A King 👑 in the making.
His boxing is actually a lot crisper here than it is now
*You have to remember... Wilder started late!!!*
Deontay Wilder got beat sooooo bad, he had to tell the Olympics RUclips channel to upload his Olympic fight to downplay the beat down he got from Tyson Fury! You could say the sequel fight was 2 Fast 2 FURYous 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
UserInterface00 was that meant to be funny.
Champ was only boxing less than two years!!! That’s remarkable!!!!! USA
WILDER I can’t wait for you to have your trilogy fight
This is man is throwing proper punches, combos, actually has his hands up and now all he has is a right hand😂
Where,s the Russian dude that sparks him out cold
Deontay Wilder pretty much had experience of logan paul fighting for 2 years prior .. you gotta give him some credits
He is a beast
Being with the Olympic team made wilder more technical. He still had some of his flaws in these clips but he looks significantly better than he does now. He’s throwing a left hook after his 1-2 he looks a bit more balanced and hes using a nice crispy jab.
He only lost because his headgear was too heavy.
its hilarious how he had a solid 30 cm height advantage over the other medalists
He looks aggressive and confident here u can tell he believes in his right he looked scared against Tyson
Wilder 🎉🎉🎉 really is a amazing story!!!
There's only 1 Tyson fury
