From being a wrecking ball inside the ring to being a fun yet eccentric individual outside – ‘The Bronze Bomber ‘ Deontay Wilder has done it all. And, his first fight with ‘The Gypsy King’ Tyson Fury can be credited with plummeting him into superstardom. The Fury vs Wilder showdown was of global proportions, receiving support from both the British and the American audiences. However, the actual fight aside, the event was known for a viral moment that Wilder had after the press conference. In fact, news personality Radio Rahim was quick to tell Logan Paul all about the incident on his podcast.

Paul was hosting his ‘Impaulsive‘ podcast with co-hosts, George Janko and Mike Majlak. Moreover, Rahim and UFC Bantamweight contender Sean O’Malley were also present as guests for the episode. In conversation, Paul asked Rahim about the iconic ‘Till This Day’ Wilder moment. It is worth mentioning that this moment also gave rise to multiple memes on social media.

Rahim began by mentioning that the first Wilder vs Fury showdown was a global phenomenon. As Fury was popular in the UK, while Wilder was popular among American audiences. Rahim then detailed a particular statement made by ‘The Gypsy King’, “Fury says my people have been fighting for 200 years. Now I cover British boxing. I know a little bit about history. I know something about Tyson himself.”

Deontay Wilder misunderstands Tyson Fury’s statement

It seems like Deontay Wilder misunderstood the context of Tyson Fury’s statement. Offended by the same, he went on to speak about the struggles that the African-American community faced.

Rahim further continued his story, “He says, what f*ck that, my people have been fighting for 400 years. He’s not talking about the Wilders, he’s not talking about his daddy. Or his daddy’s daddy. He’s talking about black people in this country fighting and struggling. I think he misunderstood what Fury was saying.”
