Comments Thread For: Finkel: Wilder Was Too Anxious, Too Focused on Getting a KO

Fury doesn't deserve a rematch, and likely won't get one. Wilder is still the champ and now has bigger fish to fry. Fury had his chances, Wilder was there to be beaten and he couldn't capitalize. This is the fight-game, not goodwill... team Wilder is not obligated to give Fury any handouts. Fury won over the VAST majority of boxing fans with a stellar performance, but yet you sit there in your comfy chair in front of the computer and blabber your bogus b.s. like he didn't do jack. People like you should just stop watching boxing and move on to tennis or badminton. What a ridiculous load of psycho-babble you just spewed.

Wilder = mediocre boxing skills with elite level power

I don't see that at all looking at the problems AJ had with Parker, the 6'9 BETTER/SLICKER Fury will give him absolute fits..... I think Joshua/Wilder is close to 50/50 but I would back Fury to beat Joshua any day I don't think Team Joshua will be in a hurry to take either of those fights look for another silly offer to Wilder, and then a hastily arranged matchup with Dillian Whyte That's what I've said: Rematches with Whyte and others coming up.

Was there any 1 punch that did that to Wilder's left eye? I do not care if ti was 10K punches or one. Wilder looked defeated in there.

He has a huge frame and although he is more evasive than Parker he is not quicker. AJ commits to his body shots which is the mistake Wilder made. I have no qualms you believing Fury Will win and can see your arguments for him winning.Although i feel AJ knocks him out. Although Fury has the best legs in the game. He gets knocked down regularly but he always has his legs underneath him when getting up

This is the fight-game, not goodwill... team Wilder is not obligated to give Fury any handouts. it's kind of the opposite. nobody's as interested in wilder vs aj now that he was getting thoroughly outboxed by fury and really should have lost. it's fury that should have the bigger fish to fry here. wilder shouldn't fight aj when he still has unfinished business with fury imo. if either guy could go straight into a fight with aj next, it's fury cuz he really won that fight.

You say that of the back of AJ not Fightng for 50 million in the USA. When has he shied away from Fury. To be fair I was annoyed he was even considering Fury as I felt Fury was not ready. Rest assured Joshua does a better job ta Wilder. He has more strings to his bow. He is a better body puncher than Wilder a better combination puncher than Wilder has better ring generalship than Wilder and is more imposing. Yes Fury will play cat and mouse but Joshua Will not get outboxed like Wilder did. I always said nullify Wilder ‘s strengths and he is there for the taking. Fury had no meaningful offensive yet he equipped himself well. I am under no illusion there is no way Joshua can evade punches the way Fury did but given the opening Wilder is there to be knocked out I don't see that at all looking at the problems AJ had with Parker, the 6'9 BETTER/SLICKER Fury will give him absolute fits.....

Hope Joshua has your confidence and the fight gets made before the Fury rematch. I believe Joshua is easy work for Wilder, but just like the fight with Fury, we won't know for sure until they actually fight. I’ve reported this post for such blasphemous words. Joshua will smoke Wilders boots inside 6 rounds

I don't see it like that at all I doubt Joshua can beat either of those guys Fury is more-skilled and slicker than Joshua, no question..... and Joshua does not have the power to stop him, he does not one-punch guys he breaks them down..... what will AJ do, get lucky all night long? and if Wilder can knock Fury down TWICE, he can knock Joshua down 3x I say..... no chance that Joshua will fight either of those guys in 2019..... he will carry on doing his thing, and hope that the rematch takes one of those guys out You say that of the back of AJ not Fightng for 50 million in the USA.

Let’s pretend that Joshua was very weary of Wilder. Watching him on Saturday will fill him with all the confidence to make the fight immediately. Let’s get this straight I’m a AJ fan but there is no way he has defence like Tyson Fury but he has an offensive that will flatten Wilder and vice versa of course I don't see it like that at all I doubt Joshua can beat either of those guys Fury is more-skilled and slicker than Joshua, no question..... and Joshua does not have the power to stop him, he does not one-punch guys he breaks them down..... what will AJ do, get lucky all night long? and if Wilder can knock Fury down TWICE, he can knock Joshua down 3x I say..... no chance that Joshua will fight either of those guys in 2019..... he will carry on doing his thing, and hope that the rematch takes one of those guys out

Did you not see Fury coming back from the canvas and almost taking Wilder out of there? Wilder knows deep inside he is lost if he ever fights Fury again. Was there any 1 punch that did that to Wilder's left eye?

Nice video. I can'e see Breazeale lasting more than a couple of rds. I agree. Really depends on Fury and whether there is enough time for Wilder to get in his mandatory before the Fury rematch. But yes, easy work...

Did you not see Fury laid out on the canvas in the 12th? Why would Wilder feel like he couldn't beat him when he laid him out twice in the fight. Fury can't go for the KO because he has to spend the majority of the fight avoiding the power. He fought a great fight and I don't see how losing 5 pounds is going to change him tactically versus Wilder. I doubt he even loses 5 pounds as he came in just off the Pianeta weight (a hint that he wasn't in fat camp while prepping for Wilder).

Fury was seriously concussed in that 12th round. For his well-being, I believe he will be suspended for 6 months, which means he will not be available for the April 13th date. Plus his wife wants him to chill out until after the baby is born: So the more likely scenario is that Joshua will fight the Whyte/Chisora winner, Wilder will fight his Breazeale mandatory and Fury will rematch Wilder late next year. But if Hearn is reasonable, maybe we finally get the undisputed fight? Doubt it... Unless Joshua demands it... Again, doubt it... Let’s pretend that Joshua was very weary of Wilder.

If I would be shocked if Wilder demands to fight Fury again like Mayweather use to do. Fury would only get better, he fought Fury at his worse. If Wilder goes on to fight Breazeale and Fury gets another tune up in then fight again i would go with Fury easily.

He can't and now he knows he cannot win against Fury, plain and simple. "too focused on getting a ko" well he was getting his god-damn ears boxed off so what else was he going to do? try and win rounds? LOL Did you not see Fury laid out on the canvas in the 12th?

You were probably disappointed with George Foreman as well against Ali!! Fury reduced him to a rank amateur. When a fighter lives and dies by his power this can happen when he runs into an opponent who is a good boxer and is not afraid of him. There were moments in the fight when i felt embarrassed for Wilder as he telegraphed his right hand punch time and time again. I expected Fury to outbox Wilder as most of us did, Wilder didn't use his jab enough, close the distance well. His punch variety was almost non existent and I felt he should have went to the body a lot more. He was looking for that big shot almost the whole fight.
