    Hopefully somebody steps up to the plate and accepts the final eliminator against Hrgovic now, shocking how much he has been ducked. Also, we need that ref doing every major fight, he is the opposite of British refs, he just kept sending Radonjic out there to take the beating the fans paid to see, made him sit in the corner for a minute and then called it

      Well it’s not out of the ordinary,I would think Lewis is more preserved by any guy near 50 . Would it really be that far off to see him beating Wilder ? I’d have both Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis defeating him if they had a few months to train . I’d say Holyfield to unless he really looks bad tomorrow. One has to understand they haven’t been through the grind recently and Wilder suffered a bad set of blows which can effect your next performance as well .

        Radonjic looked bad and was insufficiently conditioned, but he had heart, I will give him that. And, to be fair, he survived more rounds than seemed possible after all those knockdowns in the second.

        Crap fight and Hrgovic definitely needs to step up the level of competition he is facing.

          23 years after Lewis landed everything and the kitchen sink on this dude's head and he's randomly fighting on the Hrgovic card tomorrow. WTF?!?!?!

          Regrettably I'm so old I remember that. Zelkyo had a granite chin but took so many shots he quit boxing immediately afterwards. I think Lennox also broke his jaw. I guess after 20 years the headaches have gone away but this come-back really isn't a good idea. It is strange that so many of the guys from this era, like Hoyfield, Tyson, Toney, even, god forbid, Bowe, want to come back. Why? It is a truly terrible idea & very dangerous.

            Folks - history was made here. One of the worst padded all KO records in the history of boxing was witnessed here.

                  .. and in fairness to Lovejoy and Radonjic they both stepped up far sooner than Wilder who fought a guy who lost his last 6 23 fights in.
                  It's better for prospects to stay active than being fast tracked and only fighting three times a year furthermore it's been a mistake by him and Yoka for only having 24 fights between both fighters despite both turning pro 2017 due to the heavyweight politics, networks and promotional companies. This is not 2016 when all the titles were vacant which why Joshua was world champ in his 16th fight. These dudes almost 30 and ain't fight nobody nothing wrong with staying active as prospect but the problem is these guys are so called contenders not fighting other contenders. Don't care about offers I'm about different stylistic opponents. The other guys need to fight each other and put they mando on the line why not be mandatory in 2 sanctioning bodies. For Wilder golden boy didn't really care about him they wasn't trying to make Wilder vs Seth Mitchell when it could've been big at the time (2012) Or Jennings was undefeated at the time was mando for Wilder skip him to fight Wladimir. You also need to realise Wilder was in a era that it took a guy over 25 fights to enter contender status. Someone like fought Wlad fought like 12 times a year after winning gold in the olympics.

                      I knew you'd be on here pulling your little pecker over this win.

                      Nothing was proven by beating a bum who was falling all over himself on his own.
