WBC PRESIDENT MAURICIO WANTS A WILDER VS JOSHUA UNIFICATION SHOWDOWN

By James Blears

Following Deontay Wilder’s spectacular one round KO of challenger Bermane Stiverne, World Boxing Council President Mauricio Sulaimain says there’s no time to waste in establishing a fan favourite unification blockbuster with Antony Joshua!

Mauricio urged: “Lets do it! Let’s make it happen!! Deontay Wilder is waiting for his moment to shine. He made a statement with a tremendous one round KO of former champion Bermane Stiverne, who was trying to time the jab and counter. But then came that right hand, that would have knocked out any fighter in the World.”

Considering Anthony Joshua’s last two stoppage victories which have been much harder and appreciably less spectacular, Mauricio himself countered: “Well…this is heavyweights and it’s not easy. Joshua struggled, but he’s certainly a tremendous powerful force.

“Wilder’s success was all to do with his jab, his tremendous condition, preparation, physique and mental strength, to go out and achieve this KO in less than a single round.”

“Right now and without question, Deontay Wilder is the BEST heavyweight in the World!”
