Deontay Wilder vows to kill Dominic Breazeale in world title fight

Deontay Wilder will defend his belts against mandatory challenger Dominic Breazeale on May 18 and then expected to take on Luis Ortiz and Adam Kownacki later this year. Breazeale has teamed up with legendary trainer Virgil Hunter ahead of the fight and says he is in perfect shape to take his chance with both hands. Wilder has threatened to kill Breazeale in their heavyweight clash. "This is the only sport in the world where you can kill a man and get paid for it at the same time, so why not use my right to do so?" he said. "Dominic Breazeale asked for this. I didn't ask for this, he asked for me. If it comes, it comes. This is a brutal sport. This is not a gentleman’s sport, we don’t ask to hit each other in the face, but we do anyway. "You can ask any doctor around the world and he’ll tell you the head is not meant to be hit. Anyone can go. And on this particular time, we’ve got real bad blood against each other. I can’t wait. As I said, he’s like a fly in my ear. I can’t wait to get him out. It’s going to be in dramatic fashion, in a fashion nobody has ever seen. His life is on the line, and I do mean his life. I'm still trying to get me a body on my record."
