According to Johnny Nelson Wlad Klitschko knocked WIlder out cold twice in sparring and had him down a third time. So now we know why WIlder is practically begging Klitschko to retire lol FRAUD ZQUAD!

I knew this like 3 or 4 years ago lol

Nelson said he was out cold twice plus dropped him to the body. So they've sparred several times over whoever knows how long. I believe what he's saying just I just can't imagine Wlad going to a fighters body. Didn't think he knew he could hit the body in pro boxing. Maybe that's telling....telling how crap Wilder is...

When is this supposed to have happened? If people knew about it 4 years ago, it's not really any surprise, is it? I wouldn't have thought anyone thinks that Klitschko of five years ago wouldn't have easily beaten Wilder of five years ago. Klitschko now is maybe a different matter (Although I'd still favour him).

Wilder is a HOAX

I just heard it was before the Marius Wach fight of Klitschko, at the time Klitschko used Wilder as a sparringspartner, which makes sense, since Wach and Wilder are both similar length.
This was just before 2013 started.


I knew that Klitschko KOed Wilder once in a trainingssession, I didn't know he did it several times and when exactly.

Wilder himself fought Kelvin Price soon after, who's also 6ft7, so the session made sense.

Kelvin Price was a genuine step up at the time for Deontay Wilder.

The former undisputed heavyweight champion of the World?
Knocking a guy down in sparring?
Well I never!

Knocked down I can believe. Knocked out cold twice? I really doubt if Wlad would have kept Wilder there to spar 50+ rounds if that happened. Troll on...

Joshua has supposedly been dropped in sparring by David Price years ago and recently by Lawrence Okolie and Daniel Dubois. He subsequently climbed off the floor to stop Klitschko, so I don't let those incidents (which AJ doesn't deny) affect my opinion of him.

It would be hypocrisy not to also give Wilder a pass especially when you consider that's Klitshcko put him down not Lawrence Okolie.

i am no defender of mr wilder usually,
but him on his way up being floored
by the man is no shame and after all
it is still sparring and that is an entire
different set of circumstance.
