Wilder faces former heavyweight champion גאָלד קאַפּ אויף שאָוטיים טשאַמפּיאָנשיפּ באָקסינג® אין אַ נאָוועמבער 4 rematch that headlines a Premier Boxing Champions event LIVE on שאָוטיים (9 פּ.ם. און/6 פּ.ם. פּט) פון באַרקלייַס צענטראַל, the home of BROOKLYN BOXING™.
“Even when people see me out and posting [on social media], it doesn’t mean I’m resting,” Wilder told Schaub. “I’m just taking a little bit of time off and relaxing my mind. In this sport there are a lot of things that I want to do, and things that have to be done. I want to be the savior of heavyweight boxing.”
Schaub asked Wilder as the only American heavyweight champion, why he hasn’t received the notoriety yet that he deserves in the U.S. “I don’t get it either,” Wilder said. “It’s mind boggling to see Americans support others before they support their own.”
He added: “I like to joke around. I like to laugh. I like to get corny sometimes. I like to get silly. איר וויסן, I just like to live life … I’m neutral when it comes to a lot of things. I’m an open-minded person. So whether it’s religion or whether it’s race or whether it’s sexuality; I’m not the person to judge. It’s not my place because if I judge you, then God is going to judge me the same way.”
