Chris Broussard: “I don’t think Deontay Wilder will bounce back from this.”
Rob Parker: “You think this is it?”
Broussard: “Yes, because when you have been dominant for so long – especially in the manner he was – and you get EXPOSED, it is hard to bounce back mentally and emotionally. When Ali beat Foreman, Foreman was never the same. Mike Tyson was never the same after Buster Douglas beat him and took away that aura of invincibility. Roy Jones Jr. was pound for pound the best fighter of his generation and was never the same when he lost [Montell Griffin, 1997]." (Full Audio at Bottom of Page)
Listen to Chris Broussard explain why he thinks Deontay Wilder’s TKO loss to Tyson Fury was the type of career-defining defeat that effectively ends a fighter’s relevance and triggers a long and perditious road towards retirement.
Broussard thinks Wilder was exposed by Fury as a one-trick pony who simply can’t compete with a vigilant strategist like Fury who isn’t just going to simply fall victim to Wilder’s right on command. Chris says Wilder doesn’t know how to box, and relies way too much on one single punch to decide a fight.
Check out the audio and video below as Broussard compares Wilder’s loss to some of the most notorious losses of other great fighters' career, and details why those guys never came back from their most infamous defeats.
