Evolution Of The “BronzeBomber” Heavy Is The Head That Wears The Crown- Pt.1
BY Scottie “The Context” White
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy pause – this is where I preface off center to that famous quote from Dr Martin Luther King– “where a man stands in receipt of the “BronzeBomber” right-hand?” a brutish reality to suffix this quote adjourned.
Standing on my square as I reiterate often in journalism, I’m not asking for consigning to my narratives, the review in its quality is firm to its context and to elucidate I’ve never proclaim to be factually perfect. So, my reasoning is to respectfully request the viewers to read past the mark of one – in review of this article. What I envision is an embodiment to a plethora of internal variables which crochet this storyline. The volume of alacrity is limitless when writing on the greatest heavyweight champion of this modern era in Deontay “BronzeBomber” Wilder. Never is my summations considered to be chronologically proficient, but my gifted pulse to write will surely flight your synapse transient.
Let’s us begin shall we – It’s bewildering sifting through the hypotheticals, metaphors and what-ifs that are becoming uber-esque in calling the fence riders for what they are! Frightful, skittish in their optimisms and red flag broadcasters who refuse to credit Wilder for his body of work! 40-knock outs, registering a 97.5% ratio, paging the comparisons in-line with the greatest champions to ever do it. Bow-tied nicely with 41-victories, toasting a miraculous four plus years to his title reign. Wilder recent knockout victory companies him in the boxing annals in solidifying his ninth defense, not to forget tagged with eight championship stoppages since acquiring his WBC crown.
(WBC) World Boxing Council is the coveted badge to the sanctioning bodies. Wilder earned the title in a 12-round decision versus Bermane Stiverne in 2015, extract that anomaly and Wilder could be suited as “Mr Ambien!” He has impeached every being who have inked their fate in challenging him from the far corner of the squared circle. An Olympic bronze medalist, Wilder is aliased the “BronzeBomber,” a powerful lethal striker who possesses a pair of destructive hand carried munition to the unfortunate wake of all 41-opponents on his ledger.
I’m hearing writers, analyst, and daily critics that frolic these networks say – “we still haven’t seen Wilder box!” Though I respect my compeers who journalize the realm of combat but sometimes the intelligent – keep their brain in park! Boxing has never curriculum a template vote, “all in favor” from the plethora of commissions, or any stature that mandate boxers to visually and physically meet specified criteria to compete based off the antiquated identification method called “Anthropometry.” Boxing is a physically demanding institution from all walks of history and internally it demonstrates different cloths to its technical mastery.
The rise of the “BronzeBomber” is here, a moment in history where his words are anchored in the hearts of African Americans, echoing a vociferous toggle to the importance of his retort “TILL THIS DAY,” “TILL THIS DAY,” TILL THIS DAY,” a facial grimace summoning the willful spirits of our ancestors. Those 400 years from the servility of pain and suffering, to advocating for the civil rights of freedom that radiates “Till This Day.” Wilder seemed to never forfeit his respect as he stayed the course in becoming the world champion with a voice. His words “Speak It, Believe It, Receive It.”
Tuscaloosa Alabama has been frenetic for a while now, an aura that resonates layers deep. One of their own, a leader born in raised to this southern footprint. Wilder reflection reaches back to the wise words of his Grandmother, “She always said I was anointed, I didn’t know what it meant but now I do!” Wilder decision of a young man to undertake one of the toughest combat sports in the world, all for the love in support of his daughter Naieya, who was born with Spina Bifida. “A rare birth defect that occurs when the spine and spinal cord don’t form properly.” He loves all seven of his children unconditionally and embodies that spirit in his performances as he channels inner strength from our African ancestors. “I’m a myth buster, not built like the usual, but I still knock them all out – said Wilder.
