Deontay Wilder's Fiancée Granted Restraining Order Amid Domestic Violence Claims

Restraining Order Issued

Deontay Wilder's fiancée, Telli Swift, has reportedly been granted a temporary restraining order against the former heavyweight champion amid allegations of domestic violence. The order requires Wilder to stay at least 100 yards away from Swift and their daughter until a court appearance on June 25.

Abuse Allegations

Swift claims that Wilder has abused her multiple times since 2018, including choking her, spitting on her, and nearly suffocating her with a pillow. She also alleges that he sent disturbing messages from her laptop without consent and has been monitoring her through surveillance cameras.

Calls for Retirement

Following Wilder's recent knockout loss to Zhilei Zhang, there have been increasing calls for the former champion to retire from boxing. With four losses in his last five fights, including the epic trilogy with Tyson Fury, many believe it's time for Wilder to step away from the ring.
