Wilder fans... how do you justify continuing being a fan

I'm only here to laugh at the thread title and comments! Don't mind me. Lol

Now you’re moving the goalposts


just admit Fury has been the only fighter out of those in question to beat a true number 1 dominant champ to become champ and number 1. It won’t kill you to admit it. If you want to talk about fighters proving themselves, then he’s the one that proved it the most by dethroning Wlad.

Wlad wasn’t better, nobody gets better at 41. He had success because AJ was the same kind of fighter he made a career looking good against, a big stiff upright fighter. That’s the top and bottom of it. The same flaws losing AJ fights now.

If we want to get technical should Fury have even been in the ring with Wlad after failing a test for steroids? Of course people can fight better if they had problems in the fight before.

Nobody improves at 41.

anyway, Fury passed all the drug tests for the Wlad fight

Mentally and tactics they can. You're very ****** if you think they can't.

He should have been suspended until a decision was made.

The thing is, you’re basing your argument on fantasy and speculation

im basing mine on the absolute fact Fury beat a true number 1 champ to become champ and number 1. AJ never did. It’s a cold hard fact that can’t be refuted.

so you can stick to your little fantasies that come with being a fanboy that doesn’t know much about boxing, but that’s all it comes down to.

Anyway, be gone. Conversing with casuals is boring.

Not fantasy at all. Watch the two fights and you can clearly see Wlad is more up for the Joshua fight, bouncing on his toes, willing to engage. Not plodding around afraid to throw like in the Fury fight.

I am not a huge fan of Wilder's; however, how was he exposed as a hypejob? Does losing to Fury make him a hypejob?

Look at his resume, 37 bums, like literal bums. Dodged everybody that had a pulse.

[xhiddenx87]

like most, I love his fights even if he loses. People are way too extreme. I guy is winnning he is the best in history, he loses that winning streak he is trash "I always knew he was losing"

There was 3 consensus top heavyweights, AJ, Fury and Wilder. Well two of them fought each other, the other one was fighting 40 year olds, lost the belts once to a fringe contender and then got taken to school when he faced a real challenge in Usyk, a former Cruiserweight

You're exactly right.

There were 3 consensus top heavyweights: 2 of them with belts and 1 who was the lineal champion.

Two of them fought each other and the third one lost to a fat guy and to a cruiserweight. Those are just the facts.

I'm a fan of Wilder for the entertainment value he brings to fights. I'm not a fan of his excuses and ignorance but I expected that when he lost due to his obvious lack of intelligence. It's hard to say he is a hype job considering the consensus #1 heavyweight is the guy he lost to. At that rate how can anybody call him a hype job because he lost to the best in the division.

Um... I agree with everything except the "lack of intelligence" portion. that's a weird thing to say, just based on excuses. We've seen a thousand fighters give excuses. Pacquiao, one of the greatest ever, but... when he's lost had no shortage of excuses. Does he have a lack of intelligence as well?
