“Doing Everything Other Than Fighting”: Deontay Wilder Set to Appear on BBC’s Murder-Mystery Show and Fans Aren’t Having It

After his first-round KO victory over Robert Helenius, Deontay Wilder is yet to enter the ring. Although Anthony Joshua recently showed interest in Wilder, the latter’s trainer Malik Scott perceived a potential “buzz fight” in Andy Ruiz Jr. According to Scott, Ruiz Jr. was “one of the main options” Wilder could possibly return again in boxing. However, ‘The Bronze Bomber’ does not have a scheduled bout right now even though his fans would like to see another Wilder fight.

In lieu of squaring off against an opponent, he is reportedly making an appearance on a new series by the BBC. As per the updates, he is to be also joined by a former House of Commons Speaker on this show. After talkSPORT correspondent Michael Benson shared the news via a tweet, several fans reacted to it. Here is what they are saying.
