Wilder's manager spoke about the condition of the boxer after his defeat to Zhilei

Renowned manager Shelley Finkel, who handles the affairs of former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, spoke about his charge's well-being following his early defeat to Zhang Zhilei.

"He's doing well. He was obviously very emotional last night. We didn't expect it to turn out like that. I can only commend Zhang, he was better. It's up to Deontay to decide if this is the last fight or not. I love the guy, I've worked with him for 15 years and I don't want him to get hurt. I will give my opinion, but it's up to him and I will support any decision he makes," Finkel said in an interview with talkSPORT.

Recall, Wilder lost to Zhang by TKO in the fifth round. The fight took place on June 1 in Saudi Arabia.
