In a moment of honor, WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder wished a blessed holy month to those of the Muslim religion.

Though a message of support, many were put off by his hashtag: #Bombzquad.

Those who have been long supporters of Wilder's career are familiar with his catchphrase, derived from his nickname as "The Bronze Bomber," following his 2008 bronze Olympic medal.

Whether an intentional play on words or not, his followers took notice.

As Wilder is known to be a fun-loving guy outside the ring, hopefully, his Muslim friends didn't take offense.

Funny, tasteless, or an unintended, coincidental relation? What are your thoughts?
