Talk:Deontay Wilder

message: Also, there's no mention of any other relations except one of his children's mothers. There needs to be more like that if we are going to include one, all need to be included. I have seen nothing that cites her as the child's mother, so I am deleting until we have verification. 
The domestic strangulation is also undocumented as to the result of the case. As I understand it, that charge was dismissed so it should not be included under his personal life.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlabamaBox (talk • contribs) 20:25, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Need to know why arrest record important 

message: User:David-golota has been edit warring for many months regarding the inclusion of regional titles in Wilder's record table. He is adamant that there is "No need to include minor titles when he has a major title. It only takes up space", whilst declaring article ownership by saying "I created the record so please respect my work". Twice I have tried to ask for a rationale on his talk page, but this was met with silence or blunt "reasons" via edit summaries. Not a good look. As far as I see it, there is no guideline within WikiProject Boxing which states that regional titles are not to be mentioned for "lack of space". Perhaps User:David-golota could weigh in at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Boxing and see if other editors share his view. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 17:11, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

message: Hello, in the first section it says “ Wilder is particularly known for his formidable punching power, having knocked out every opponent he has defeated”, but he has a victory by unanimous decision against Bermane Stiverne.
Cheers  
Edit: nevermind I just saw that he fought him again later on and ko’d him... thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.21.139.62 (talk) 15:52, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: The official result is TKO. The corner did indeed throw the towel in, but it is the referee's decision whether or not to stop the fight. An RTD is when a boxer/cornerman pulls out of the fight between rounds. – 2.O.Boxing 13:29, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

message: The refname ":4" has been defined twice, which is causing a cite error. The first time is in the Wilder vs. Ortiz II section, while the second is in the Wilder vs. Fury III section.
The instance in the Wilder vs. Fury III section should be given a different refname, and the corresponding  should be renamed the same (it's at the end of the section).

replies: text: The citation has been changed, and so the error no longer appears. The reference at the end of Wilder vs. Fury III is still the wrong source, but I'm sure that will be picked up. 89.241.33.89 (talk) 09:49, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

message: Please change the third paragraph which says "Wilder is known for his exceptional punching power, having knocked out every opponent he has defeated."... Change it to say "Wilder is known for his exceptional punching power, having knocked out every opponent he has defeated except Bermane Stiverne when they fought at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada for the WBC heavyweight title on January 17, 2015."
This is because Deontay Wilder went the distance with Bermane Stiverne in their first fight in January 2015. Victorvam01 (talk) 11:48, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

message: Deontay Wilder recently has said in an interview with DAZN that, and I quote, “My new nickname is Dr. Sleep, and I’ve adopted that name. I have NyQuil in my right hand and I told him to bring a blanket and a pillow because it gets chilly over here,” So, I believe under the "other names" tag there should be Dr. Sleep to provide 100% accuracy  Thecody80 (talk) 18:37, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It'll take longer than that for a nickname to stick. Until other mainstream publications start repeating it across several fights, just "Bronze Bomber" is fine. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:38, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
