Deontay Wilder is undoubtedly the current generation’s knockout king and has 41 KOs to his name. The former champion is one of the most brutal boxers in history and is a modern-day great.

Recently, Joe Rogan shared a story of Wilder and talked about how he knocked the soul out of an entertaining boxer, Charlie Zelenoff.

Zelenoff is famous for competing with people in local gyms for a boxing match or a sparring session. However, challenging the ‘Bronze Bomber’ turned out to be one of the worst decisions of his life, as Wilder taught him an unforgettable lesson.

Joe Rogan shared his views about this incident with Ph Ranker. He said, “You know who beat the f**k out of him (Charlie Zelenoff) in a gym? Deontay Wilder! Deontay Wilder’s wild! Well, Deontay is one of the hardest punchers of all time.”

During the sparring session, Zelenoff dropped to the floor, but he took the courage to stand up against Wilder and fight him once again before Wilder dropped him with a powerful left hook, which not only stunned him but also others present over there. Consequently, Zelenoff forfeited the sparring session, realizing it was not his cup of tea to challenge a hard-hitting boxer like Deontay Wilder.

Rogan describes Wilder’s unbelievable record to his name, which makes him one of the most fearful boxers of all time.
