Why Deontey Wilder Fired his coach Mark Breland
Just recently, during the second Fury vs Wilder heavyweight championship fight, Wilder's coach, Breland, threw in the towel during the time that wilder was getting the worse of it in the corner. The reason offered was that he felt deep concern for Wilders safety and was trying to protect him from receiving permanent damage or getting killed.
Now, most fans I have encountered on the Internet agree with Breland's decision, and criticize Wilder for having fired his coach on the spot after the fight They say that instead of feeling angry at Breland, he should thank him instead. Of course, things can be considered in that hasty superficial way. But that seems to be merely a snap judgement lacking any substance. You see, there are certain relevant issues which should be considered before we judge how Wilder feels and whether Breland's decision was indeed justified. So let's take a closer look at the details of what really happened in this case.

You see, there are certain relevant issues which should be considered before we judge how Wilder feels and whether Breland's decision was indeed justified. So let's take a closer look at the details of what really happened in this case.
First, let me clarify something. I don't agree that a boxer should be willing to lose his life in the ring or even be attempting to take his opponent's life. However, in order to evaluate the situation it must be looked at objectively. What we have here is an employer employee relationship. Breland is the employee and Wilder the employer. So if indeed Breland had been told never to throw in the towel-then Breland should not have thrown in the towel. After all, Wilder is his employer and he is legally under obligation to do as his employer wishes or instructs him to do.
If your employer wants to die in the ring, then I guess your employer has chosen that he prefers to die in the ring instead of quitting. Throwing in the towel against his wishes deprives your employer of a decision he has made simply because you don't like his decision. If indeed you don't, then you should quit your job and work for a person whose decisions you agree with. But never lead your employer to believe that he can count on you to follow his instructions while planning to disobey them if you see something you don't like. That is deceitful and you are not getting paid to be deceptive. So yes, I agree with Wilder's firing of Breland.
