Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Urges Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder To Continue Fighting

[Ravensfan]

I said that it was gift to boxing fans not mainstream casual fans. You watched the fight didn't you? So it was a gift to fans like you.

The only interest I had in the fight was for Wilder to lose once again. With that said it wasn't enough interest for me to watch the fight. Therefore I did not watch the fight but I did watch the highlights on You Tube a few days after the fight.

Yeah right motherfucker! You saw the fight! If what you are saying is true then you probably streamed it illegally or ordered the fight legally.

No, that was the second fight in which Fury dropped him with a body shot. You are right. Wilder still looked very lean and skinny. However; most of the added muscle weight was in his upper body and not his legs; Which probably effected his balance.

There's no question that Fury's punches and physical ability played a major factor in Wilder's overall physical demise with all those jabs and right hands he was eating. In addition, to the constant leaning grappling, holding on the inside too

All I was saying that Wilder gassed much earlier than usual before the ass whooping even started; Before Fury ever laid a glove on him.

Why did he bench press so much instead of squatting?

That is a very good question. It's a question we must ask his fitness trainer. I know one thing for sure and that is had he done them it would have taken a whole lot of stress off of his lower body.

Especially his legs and made them a lot stronger because his balance was very poor as he would nearly fall each and every time time he landed or attempted to land a punch. Which was a sign that his legs were very weak from carrying all of that extra muscle weight on his smaller body frame.

i think his rationalization for the bench pressing without squatting was that he wanted to be stronger in the upper body so Fury wouldn't have been able to weight bully him on the inside so much as he done in their second bout of the trilogy.

I really could care less what you believe and we will no longer communicate because I don't talk to immature classless keyboard warrior little boys.

It kinda surprises me how so many Americans don't support their fighters, especially aftican-americans.

Do blacks from England call themselves African-English or something like that?

Blacks in the U.S. typically call themselves Africans first (it's listed first in African-American), so why should those who consider themselves Americans be expected to support Africans? If they want to be supported by Americans, they should call themselves Americans.

6'6 small frame?? at 240 he still looked skinny. he gassed because he never fought a guy as big and good as Fury who pole axed him with a ton of jabs hit him at will with the right and landed some hard body shots which he did in the first fight knocking him down with a body shot

He didn't look skinny. He looked cut & strong.

Well, if that's how you feel then have yourself a very nice life as I wish you nothing but the best in the future; You fake, posing, useless ass troll. Now get the fuck outta here!

They are Americans and some of them don't say African but regardless it sounds better then the alternatives. I have to ask do you also feel the same way about folks that call themselves Italian-Americans and live in Little Italy? Or Greek-Americans that live in Greek-Town or the ones that call themselves Irish-Americans that proudly display the national flag of Ireland and get drunk on Saint Patrick's Day. By the way he was a Ramon Catholic Irish Saint. Have you ever wandered into a Chinatown or Koreatown in any of the major cities in the USA to eat dinner? Or is it just the decedents of the Africans that you focus on? You remember them the ones that the vast majority were brought to the America's in chains against their will and forced to participate in the brutal Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, don't you?

I do consider anyone who calls themselves Italian-Americans the same. Same for Mexican-American or anything else. How does African-American sound better than all the alternatives, when one alternative is American?

Nobody here currently was brought against their will. They're not stuck here. I'm sure Africa would like to have educated black Americans come back and help the continent succeed. Otherwise, they should call themselves Americans and help America succeed, without the need for splitting into racial or ethnic groups from when people arrived hundreds of years ago.

If Elon Musk wants to consider himself an African-American, that's fine. If he considers & calls himself an American though, I'm more likely to be proud of his achievements and root for him. He's obviously doing fine regardless of my support, but that's just an example.
