The Boxing Thread

Wilder might have improved and he certainly showed guts, but he is a shockingly bad boxer. Did nothing to learn from how he was beaten in the last fight.

Left himself wide open every time he threw that windmill left hook, for the exact punch that had beaten him both fights - right cross or hook to the left ear.

You could hear his corner trying to get him through the break in rounds even early on. Doesn't have the mental strength.

Fury is a freak right enough. I felt he was maybe boxing within himself too. Playing with his food a bit. Nearly cost him too.

Decent fight, but HW boxing just hasn't felt the same since the Lennox and Holyfied era for me.

 

Can’t help but love Fury, flawed in so many ways but he’s box office and he backs it up. Joshua for me was an advertisers dream, chiselled and clean cut. He’s not in the same league as Tyson though. Wilder I think would knock him out too.

 

People blow these post fight moments out of proportion. Easy to sit at home and talk about sportsmanship when the guys just gone through a fight camp and a 11 round scrap to get Ko’d.

He’ll be disappointed. Wilder is actually a good *. I’m sure he will talk to Fury privately.

 

Listen to the slap sound of this knockdown. Brutal. Great fight. Tyson reigns supreme.

 

Wilder got big baws

 

Fury would smoke Aj and Usyk no bother.

 

Fury is a traveller mate he was fighting in the womb

 

What a legend Fury is. His ring walk was brilliant, he looked so relaxed, singing along to his song.

 

Fury said that Wilder refused to shake his hand after the fight and said to him it was because 'he didnt respect him'. Fury does talk a lot abusive * in the lead up to the fight but surely Wilder realises its all just part of the game. After every fight Fury has been respectful towards Wilder so it was a poor show that Wilder wouldnt shake Fury's hand, at the end of the day he was well beaten by the better fighter there is no denying that.

 

Kryptonite and nuclear power. What a * crackpot.

 

Never seen it live as was away for family thing, but home and now on the second rerun on box office and totally mesmerising!

Biggest compliment I can give Tyson is I'm not so sure my modern hero Lennox would have beat him now!!

 

Amazing man!!!

 

Oh, one punch can end a fight.

But I do think Wilder beats AJ.

Also, I can't see any from Fury. Knocked down twice but still got up to win it. No one punches as hard as Wilder but Fury can take it.

 

Usyk as much as I love him and I think would cause him problems would not be able to cope with Fury over 12....I think it would go 12.

Fury would destroy AJ.

 

Aye I’d agree wae that.

 

I'd love this era to take each * on. AJ, Wilder, Usyk and Fury. All would be great fights.

 

Does Wilder retire after that or do people think he’ll still want to fight Joshua?
