Deontay Wilder Stunned By Joseph Parker In Historic Upset

by

Deontay Wilder lost his heavyweight bout against Joseph Parker in a stunning upset that sent shockwaves across the boxing world. Wilder was thoroughly outclassed in the unanimous decision defeat and was humble enough to admit it after the fight. “He did a great job avoiding a lot of my punches. We make no excuses tonight. It was a good fight, and we move on to the next thing,” Wilder said. Despite having fought just one round since November 2021, Wilder was still the -700 favorite entering the bout. However, Parker never gave the Bronze Bomber a chance to properly uncork his signature right hook.

“Coming into this fight, everyone had other plans, but this is God’s plan. Today, what a win. Merry Christmas to us,” Parker said after the fight. The win marked Parker’s fourth of the year and saw him add the WBC International Heavyweight belt to his growing list of titles. It’s unclear what Parker’s next move will be. However, he was sure of one thing after the fight. “I’m back,” he declared.

Deontay Wilder Loss Jeopardizes Anthony Joshua Fight

However, Wilder’s loss is so much bigger than just the American boxer. He entered the fight with Parker with a deal in place to fight Anthony Joshua next March if both men won. Joshua did his part later in the night, pummelling Otto Wallin so badly that Wallin’s corner threw in the towel after five rounds. With Wilder’s loss, it has led to Joshua already eyeing new options.

After the fight, Joshua said he was still open to a fight with Wilder. However, promoter Eddie Hearn quickly pivoted the conversation to a different fight instead. With a belt likely to become vacant due to the Fury-Usyk fight, Hearn has already begun hyping a title bout between Joshua and Filip Hrgović, the 2016 Olympic bronze medalist. Despite this, Joshua still expressed hope that Wilder could eventually rebound into being title-contention caliber again. “You can do anything, and if [Wilder] wants to come back he can do it,” Joshua noted.

PinkPantheress is one of the more intriguing and new female artists to pop off in the hip-hop and R&B scene. While she is not directly within those two genres, the Bath, England singer is bringing some funky and quirky vibes that are shaking things up. So far, it is continuing to bring her loads of success in a very short time frame. In fact, it was around the middle of 2021 that PinkPantheress started to release some tracks to streaming. Additionally, she put out her first-ever project that year with to hell with it. That contains some of her most popular songs “Pain” and “Break It Off – Bonus.”

Of course, we cannot forget about what she and Ice Spice did together on “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2.” The irresistibly cute instrumental along with the sad and honest lyrics about boys being toxic won so many people over. It has already racked up over 700 million streams since its release at the beginning of February. While grabbing Ice Spice for that song was a big deal, she could have caught an even bigger fish.

PinkPantheress Cannot Think About It Anymore

In a recent interview with i-D, she brutally recalled a time when she could have landed a placement on a Kendrick song. NFR Podcast tweeted an excerpt from the story and it is honestly gut-wrenching. “Oh f***, I can’t even think about it. I was watching Nightcrawler with this guy.” You might be wondering why she did not pick up and put a pause on the date for King Kendrick. Well, PinkPanthress’s date asked her to put her phone on silent. We do not know if she was expecting the call or not. However, that guy hopefully feels real awful about it.
