Here is more of what Wilder had to say Wednesday:

DEONTAY WILDER

“I feel amazing. It’s past excellent or excellent, and this time that has passed has been great for me. With the more time that’s passed, we’ve been able to work on different little things and perfect them. You can’t always be perfect, but that doesn’t mean you can’t train to be perfect.

“Malik Scott is a beautiful person and trainer. We met years ago sparring with Tomasz Adamek, and we clicked right away, and we’ve formed a natural bond and brotherhood. I have so much love around me in this camp that I’m not dwelling on anything negative.

“We’re having fun while learning and creating things together during training camp. That’s just the passion that we have to become a two-time heavyweight champion of the world.

“They say that things happen for a reason and that we don’t understand that reason until we get to a particular place in life, then we know it. My whole team understands everything that has happened, and we’re looking forward.

“The delay was a blessing for me. The more they delayed it, the more time we had to work on my craft and art, along with strategically going over the game plan we’re going to have on October 9. It was frustrating because I was ready to go, and this is the longest I’ve been out of the ring. There’s something about the ring that calls you and draws you back. But I’ve used the time and benefited tremendously.

“I appreciate the love from my true fans. I’ve received so many messages from people from all walks of life. Now we’re back again for redemption and retaliation on October 9. The BombZquad is back.

“This has hands down been the best training camp I’ve had in my entire career. Sometimes you need events to happen in life to bring about changes that you need. We’ve had no distractions, and I’m just in a happy state mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

“You’re looking at a rejuvenated and reinvented Deontay Wilder. The old Deontay is no longer there. I can’t explain it to you; I have to show you on October 9. I’m looking forward to it, and I can’t wait.”
