I felt like people were more joking than actually saying Deontay Wilder let down the black community. You know how social media is when someone takes a loss, the jokes will fly.
Almost every boxer in the history of the sport is going to take a loss at some point in their career and the longer their career goes the more brutal those losses become.
Wilder is still a great heavyweight, but he just took an L to a better fighter.
It happens.
How Wilder proceeds from here will depend on him. Some never recover (more mentally than physically) while others come back even stronger.
