Garcia named the main reason for Wilder's failure in the fight with Parker

Renowned trainer Robert Garcia believes that the main reason for the poor performance of the former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in a battle against Joseph Parker has become too much downtime.

“Parker had three fights in a year before this, and Wilder hadn’t fought for a while and didn’t look good. It's sad to watch such a performance.

Wilder is a great fighter and has made a lot of money. When fighters earn so much, they feel like they don't have to fight very often. Of course, boxers make a lot of money, but they need to stay active. They get too comfortable, and that happens to a lot of fighters,” Garcia said in an interview with the Little Giant Boxing YouTube channel.

Let us remember that on December 23, Wilder lost to Parker by unanimous decision as part of a big boxing evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
