I HAD ROOTED FOR DEONTAY BECAUSE OF HIS SELF-PROCLAIMED NIGERIAN HERITAGE-FEMI FANI-KAYODE.{PHOTOS}.#PRESS RELEASE.

        '' I was up at 5.00 am this morning to watch the fight live on Supersport and it was worth it. I had rooted for Deontay because of his self-proclaimed Nigerian heritage and his awesome power but I feared for him after the first minute of round one. Congratulations to Tyson Fury. He fought a great fight and took the Bronze Bomber apart! I was touched when he gave glory to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for his victory and proclaimed Him as the one true God! Deontay fought hard but it was the Gypsy King's night! What a great fighter he is! What a great testimony! Four years ago he weighed over 300 pounds, was addicted to cocaine, was on the verge of losing his mind, battled depression and contemplated suicide. Fast forward to 2020 and he is the WBC champion of the world. Only God can take the glory for that! Curiously during the fight he wore a gum shield which was painted in green/white/green and had "Nigeria" written on it. His glove...
