Video: Deontay Wilder “I’m going to use my dislike of Stiverne towards whupping his #$%^”
“It started from an interview. After seeing, it was a jealous rant towards me. He was asked about me and he just went into this rage. I think it was jealousy because no one knew who he was. He was unknown and anytime the heavyweight division is brought up they talk about Deontay Wilder, of course because of the knock outs. I guess he was tired of hearing my name so much, and why no one is talking about him, and everyone is talking about me. So how he was using my term of name in his sentences, I felt a type of way towards him. Because I’m the type of person, if I do an interview about you, I can do it like you’re right beside me. After that point, I said, I want to see this guy. I saw him and confronted him about it and here we are.”
