It has been revealed that Deontay Wilder spent an outrageous £13,700 on his ring walk outfit, which only lasted five minutes on his body prior to his world title fight.
The Bronze Bomber recently defeated, Luiz Ortiz for the second time to defend his World Boxing Council (WBC) title for the 10th successive time.
Wilder now joins the likes of Muhammad Ali who have managed such an incredible record.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, he said: “With that, we wanted to go into a modern-day king, like knight, the old and the new, the outfit represented the old me turning into the new me.
“The past is the past – welcome to the future.
“So that was the whole idea of it, that’s what it came out to be, it was amazing.
“We’re looking forward to the next costume already to be even better than that one.
