Deontay Wilder calls out Anthony Joshua

On November 4, 2017, Deontay "The Bronze Bomber" Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs) faced Bermane Stiverne (25-3-1, 21 KOs) in a rematch of their 2015 world title bout. Wilder made quick work of Stiverne, knocking him out with one second remaining in the first round.

Wilder made a bold statement with this victory; a statement that fellow heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua likely heard loud and clear: Wilder is a serious threat.

After the fight, Wilder was quick to call Joshua out, encouraging him to make the date for the ultimate heavyweight unification bout. Could we be in for a megafight in 2018 between arguably two of world's most dangerous fighters? We sure hope so.
