Deontay "Bronze Bomber" Wilder may be 32-0-0 with 32 knockouts, but he hasn't put any fear in WBC heavyweight champion Bermane Stiverne's heart. Stiverne, whose nickname is "B-Ware," said training videos of Wilder that he is in possession of paint a surprising picture of the heavy-handed challenger.
"I have four different videos of sparring sessions that show him getting dropped on his a**. I could play his game and post things like that on the different social media sites. But I'm not like that," Stiverne said.
"I'm not going to tell anyone where I got the tapes from...I'm not going to throw anybody under the bus. But I do have tape where he gets knocked out, and I mean seriously hurt. Not just knocked out, but hurt."
Stiverne doesn't have the spotless record that Wilder possesses, but he does have the title and bigger names on his resume. Stiverne is best known for back-to-back wins over tough veteran Chris Arreola, while Wilder is widely considered to be untested vs. high-level competition.
Stiverne and his camp have mocked Wilder's rise through the ranks as being guided, while the champ admitted he's not one for talking smack.
"He can talk trash, but that's all it is...trash," Stiverne said. "I'm pretty much boring when it comes to trash talk. I don't get involved with any of that. But when you come to the fights, I give you all of the excitement you expect to see."
Stiverne did talk a little trash when he made a prediction about how his January clash with Wilder will go.
"I want everyone to see his record and believe that he's superman coming into this fight. The only thing I will say is that you're going to see superman get defeated on January 17th."
