Former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder has disclosed that he competed in his last two fights (against Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang) with a broken arm, completely unaware of his injury.

I broke my arm way back in November some time and I didn't know. I had two tears on my shoulder and stuff like that. I could feel the pain but I just thought it was old injuries. I got MRI’d, that everything was f***ed up in there. I didn’t know cause I got a high tolerance of pain.
In July 2024, Wilder lost to Zhile🍌i Zhang via technical knockout in the fifth round.🍒 In December 2023, Deontay lost to Joseph Parker by unanimous decision. In his professional boxing career, Wilder has 43 wins (42 by knockout), four losses, and one draw.
