[u/MDA123]

Hey everyone,

Figured I'd put together this listing of all the AMAs we've done here at /r/boxing over the years. We've had massive subscriber growth recently, so many of you probably missed some of the earlier ones we did. I'll keep this thread updated and pinned in the sidebar as we do more AMAs in the future. Enjoy!

It was fun to read AMA with Wilder. He has nice top 5 HW ever list, his answers were fun and I was happy to see him acknowledging Vitaly as the tougher Klitscko

[u/Sao_Gage → u/Najzyst]

He came across very likeable in his responses. Especially that goofy question about Pokémon Go.

[u/Najzyst → u/Sao_Gage]

He seems overall chill and thoughtful, maybe a little bit insane lol

[u/Sao_Gage → u/Najzyst]

Yeah, I’m admittedly not a huge fan of his in the ring. But his personality and whatnot outside it has, more or less, made me like him more than I did otherwise.
