The year 2020 turned out to be a forgettable one for the former heavyweight king, Deontay Wilder. The ‘Bronze Bomber’ received the first career loss of his decorated boxing career and since then, he hasn’t fought once and kept an inactive streak in the sport.

Several of his fans, including Shawn Porter, are curious to see him back in action. In a podcast, Porter commented on the ‘Bronze Bomber’ and revealed why is it necessary for the latter to come back to the squared circle.

He said, “I need to see Deontay Wilder comeback… I think that’s a good fight, Dillian Whyte and Deontay! I don’t care who I see him against, I want to see him come back.”

Porter not only affirmed his interest to see Wilder back, but also named an opponent for him. He felt Dillian Whyte has the audacity to welcome the former heavyweight champion. However, he later expressed that he just wants to see Wilder comeback, no matter who the opponent is.

Porter continued, “I don’t think it’s me and other fans of Wilder, I think like the general public who grew to know him prior to his last fight want to see him back in the ring. I think there’s a lot of questions to be answered just by getting in the ring.”
