The ecosystem of boxing is filled with a variety of fighters, some are just great and born to be a legend, while some are not that skilled to be at the pinnacle. Thus, a journeyman newly introduced to the sport doesn’t hold the same mastery as his contemporaries. But at the same time, it doesn’t mean a journeyman cannot secure a win, they can still have some wins in their records against the lesser skilled fighters. Deontay Wilder‘s brother lost to a journeyman as well.
Now, this was proved by the recent knockout delivered by a 400-pound journeyman. During the fight, both fighters were going toe-to-toe against each other, when the journeyman dodged a punch of his opponent and answered him with a counter right hand. Well, the punch landed right on the opponent’s chin, which made him go straight to the canvas. The fans went wild in the comments section.
