This Saturday, January 17, 2015, Bermane “B. Ware” Stiverne (24-1-1, 21 KOs) defends his WBC strap against hard-hitting American, Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder (32-0, 32 KOs).
The fight–which is aptly named “Return to Glory”–can single-handedly bring back interest in the heaveyweight with a bang!
Stiverne and Wilder, who haven’t been shy about predicting a knockout, continued the trash-talking at the final press conference on Thursday.
