Originally posted by mxtali View PostAnybody crying about wilder not shaking his hand is soft. Not only was the guy out of it clearly, there’s a reason it was a dogfight. Because both men are dogs. Wilder with every ounce of his being wanted to beat Fury. It’s gonna take time for him to accept that as hard as he tried he couldn’t do it.
'I call it the matey matey culture'.
Go and check the comments under Usyk vs Joshua pre and post fight videos on you tube. And you will see a whole mass of people, gushing over sportsmanship.
I could not careless, the only respect Deontay Wilder needed to show Tyson Fury 'Was to prepare and not cheat'.
Even on this forum, every-time there is a big fight weekend 'People act up, like the really care that much about the fighters'.
It is completely fake behavior, from the people on this forum and even the public.
I understand why Deontay Wilder is acting the way he is 'His attitude inside he ring, also shows up outside the ring'.
In his mind, Tyson Fury is his enemy 'He has lost a battle, but he is most likely clinging onto the optimism that the war is not over'.
I would not advise, or promote all sportsmen to act like Wilder 'But he is expressing himself authentically'.

No big deal not shaking hand he was just koed and not thinking straight. But they will meet in future and will fist pump and chicken wing elbows touch. And wilder will say fury is best he faced. It's all good

Teddy be on that BS big time. Let’s just throw sportsmanship out the window. What a clown. AJ is a prime example of how boxers should act when you get beat.

When you repeat three or four times that you are not making excuses it then sounds as if you are actually making excuses. I was also rather surprised that Atlas didn't say that Fury took Wilder into the deep end of the pool to drowned him three, four or nine or ten times.

Originally posted by ShoulderRoll View PostAtlas makes a good point about Joshua being too accepting of his loss.
If he can avenge the loss, then publicly showing grace in defeat will have a very different complexion to it.
Throwing your toys out of the pram never looks good and it didn't help Wilder after the second fight.

Fury's weight advantage was a major factor in people picking Fury to win and everyone agrees it had a major factor in the fight. I'm not sure that's an excuse as much as a valid reason. He did say he did everything he could and it wasn't good enough, I'm not sure what else people want him to say. He clearly needed to tell himself all those things were true in order to psych himself up to fight again, and he earned most people's respect despite that bs and him not shaking hands.
I watched the podcast Atlas said these things in, and another good point he made is Wilder's terrible left hooks is what got him damaged the most. His trainers should have banned him from ever throwing a left hook because he's terrible at it and leaves himself completely exposed for shots he doesn't even see coming. All the biggest shots he took were a direct result of that, including the final KO punch.
