Zelenoff has been trolling Wilder for a long time and threatened his child, which was the last straw for Wilder. It’s funny, in a pathetic way. Or pathetic in a funny way.

IMO, Zelenoff deserves everything he gets.

He was caught off guard!? Between accepting the challenge, driving to the gym, changing into fight trunks, strapping on the gloves, and stepping into the ring with a professional fighter _who hates you_, you’d think this guy had ample warning that he was about to get punched in the face.

Wilder could have a serious career in beating down internet trolls. He would never lack work and it would be the lords work.
