I wanted to show the world what Deontay Wilder is all about. I'm a heavyweight, and I'm exciting.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Nothing has been given to Deontay Wilder. So with that being said, nothing is going to be taken from me. So I must stay focused. I must. I must. It is an absolute must to stay focused.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
When I structured my career, I looked at Muhammad Ali, which is my all-time favorite and an idol of mine, and what he has done for this sport. He was a real-life hero.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Anybody who knows me knows that I don't just love this sport, I am in love with it. I am really in love with this sport. I am obsessed with boxing. I eat, breathe and sleep it. You know, I do it all; this is my life. This is not a hobby for me. This is a lifestyle for me, and I address it accordingly. I take it very, very seriously.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
People who know me know that if I say I'm going to do something, I'm doing it. I am hungry. I am determined.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I still think about the first time I met Lennox Lewis, and he took the time out to talk to me, and he showed me different techniques. I'll never forget. Lennox was one of those guys that set the standard. He's a hard act to follow. But I love a challenge.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I want the people to be able to see me and be able to see a great performance.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I don't know how a man can live with himself to get to the top knowing he didn't do it the right way.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
When I was up in college, I had a friend, and he was the only guy who knew I wasn't going to be able to attend school no more because I had a child on the way. I remember we was right at the lunch table. I was like, 'Man, I should start boxing.' I felt like every fighter that's on TV made a lot of money. I was like, 'You gotta make a lot of money.'
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I definitely got into a lot of fights when I was a kid. I never understood it. I was one of those quiet kids. I never picked with no one.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
It's a great feeling to be the WBC champ of the world, but there's more to gain from this.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I'm the guy who has everything it takes to be heavyweight champion of the world. It's not just about being great inside the ring: it's about being able to do great things outside of the ring. Not everyone has that. I love to be out there with the people.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Once I knock Szpilka out, I want all the Polish fans to come on the 'Bronze Bomber' train as I bring the heavyweight division back to the top.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I don't just rely on my right hand when I'm in the ring. That's the least thing I think about. I think about the preparation I've trained for, and I try to execute. And guys can't stand up to the power. I've been blessed with that, and it's something that can't be taught.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
When I come to spar, I definitely come to spar; I definitely come to fight.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I think Joshua has been doing a good job winning his fights and beating the guys in front of him. You got to congratulate him for his success.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Some guys may play around and say a couple of things, but if I say it, I mean it. I may laugh, it may be funny, but if I say I'm going to get you, I'm going to get you.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I always picture my grandkids looking at their grandfather and saying, 'My grandfather was the last or the first to do something.' There's nothing like setting goals and watching yourself get there, accomplishing that goal and putting your name to a part of history.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
My daughter will find some of the sweetest words to tell you that can make a grown man cry. She still gives me the same inspiration. She still motivates me.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
We knew Stiverne was tough. You've got to give it to him. He's got a tough chin.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
This is no game. You get up in there, and you take some punches. You risk your life, and then let me see you talk then. That's why I don't respect people who criticize fighters.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Fury made a name for himself in America, and as a fighter, you have to establish yourself there, first and foremost, to be known worldwide.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
If I have to go through Fury after my Povetkin fight - and I never look past my next fight; I am not that foolish - to get those belts, I would love to fight him next.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
At the end of the day, I am going for all the belts, so I am going to have to go through all of them. And I would live to fight the U.K. guys - even in the U.K.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
When they throw punches, the breathing, the sparring. The heavy bags being hit. All of that - it was a heavenly sound to me.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
The craziest thing about it, I used to hate fighting, but you had to show how tough you was; you had to show you wasn't no punk.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I will be that guy to change this sport, especially in the heavyweight division. A lot of people have lost interest. I'm the right man for the job... I want to make it bigger and better than it ever have been before.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
It don't matter if I got a broke hand, got a torn muscle: I'm going to fight like heavyweight champions do.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Of course I want the Furys, of course I want the Joshuas, but the question is, do they want me?
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I'm one of the baddest, hardest-hitting heavyweights in the business. Right here from Alabama, baby.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
Against Bermane Stiverne, they said he was going to be the toughest test, but I passed that with flying colours.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I am going to get world-wide recognition from whoever wants it, and whoever wants to challenge me.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I have so many things that I want to do with my life. I just don't see myself being a fighter forever. Boxing is my love and passion. It also opens up and sets up other things in my life as well.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I want to defend and put my title on the line as much as possible. If the top in the division are ready to try to come and take my belt - and the key word is 'try' - I'm ready to give them that opportunity.
Quote by -Deontay Wilder
I don't see myself being in the sport a very long period of time, so I want to fight as much as possible.
