And they are begging people to seat with half the price.
Of course it's the fight of the year LMAO.
You clearly didn't read his post in it's entirety :ok:
see the hilarious "GayJ" joke? Fight of the Year!!
Two lineal titles ( Fury, Stevenson) on the same telecast you say? When was the last time the UK brought their audience such quality?
Poor bastards, stuck with their pitiful euro-level undercards for the build-up of their only star in GayJ -- SAD.

I'm not anti-American, and I even put myself on the poster which makes me part of the joke. Below is the original poster, and as you can see it has an anti-american slogan, I just altered it.

People like you who insist on making nationalistic angles to boxing hold back this sport.
I've never given a F where a fighter comes from and I never will.
they still play the national anthems for big fights? they do so stfu *****

Wilder has the worst 40 fight record in HW history. He's fun to watch but gets outboxed by guys like Spzilka and Washington..... you're buying into the hype just like everyone bought into Bellew's left hook and his KO power, it's overrated, massively!
Wilder needs a sandbag in front of him OR a faded opponent with high blood pressure..... but he is smart enough to survive until they gas.
Wilder is not the wrecking ball he is made out to be, I've watched all his title fights, he's terrible.
He has the basic fundamentals of a 14 yr old amateur boxer, and yet they hype that like it's something special. He isn't scaring anybody I agree.
I think this is one of the reasons i actually like Wilder fighting style. Totally different to anyone else and for me that is actually intriguing to watch. He might look like he doesn't know what he is doing but you don't stop someone like Ortiz if you don't have the basic fundamentals.

You don't go to the damn Olympics without more than basic fundamentals, because power is useless in the AmsMakes you wonder why David Price was picked over Tyson Fury for the Olympic team

Thats the thing! I might disagree with how he ducked AJ (Thats my humble opinion), But i cannot sit here and say the guy can't fight! I see everywhere how he gets criticise for not having this or that (Technically) and am thinking maybe am watching the wrong guy here.
Yes he is sloppy, yes he does the windmill when his opponents are hurt, but he does really know what he is doing in there. He is awkward to others but he knows what he is doing in there. He might have a sh itty resume but he still need to catch those opponents on the chin to knock them out.
This is why am picking him to beat AJ whenever or if ever they meet (By 2019 before AJ gets better IMO).

Hopefully the curse of the Freddie Roach prediction won't ruin Fury's night
