    Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko each retired at 41, Holyfield 48, Bowe 42, Holmes 53, the list goes on. Would you like to rethink that statement or do I need to find more ways to make you look ******?

    Tyson. Fury. wasn't born fighting? TYSON. Fury. Lmao. I can't, man. I just. I can't.

    For someone who claims to have stop-watched his long count, you were awful quiet on the glove thing.

    SOME of what you said is accurate. What have you made up? Check every post I've corrected you on. And don't worry. We'll talk again.

    No, I won't rethink my statement, like I said the exception does not disprove the rule​ and of the names you listed only the Klitschkos were fighting at the top level by time they finished.

    Wilder isn't giving the impression he wants to be continuing on for a pay cheque but rather he thinks he's there or thereabouts with the upper echelons of the division and should be competing with them unlike Holmes, Holyfield and Bowe who continued on for far too long chasing cheques...


    And of course Fury wasn't born fighting, are you ******, he didn't even step into a boxing gym until he was 11, it could even be argued that it's "late"​ to just begin venturing into the gym at 11...

    What gloves!? I haven't even mentioned gloves you weirdo nor have you in this conversation, if you're talking about in the other thread I did, your inability to accept the reply is on you and your fangirling for Wilder.

    You've not corrected me in any way in any of your responses, all you've actually done is prove my point in both responses by listing the ages of his contemporaries and when they picked up boxing and listed some outliers like I said, furthering my point.

    Of the 100s of top 10 rated heavyweights over the years you can list but a handful who retired older than Wilder and even fewer still who were still in REAL fights with REAL meaningful stakes e.g. REAL BELTS or fighting in final eliminators at his age.

      And you certainly don't talk well, you've never been able to string a coherent sentence together and you consistently waffle for an entirety whilst saying a whole lot of nothing.

      And most of your contemporaries at the "top" started late, you're not unique in that regard and I suspect all of them will retire in the next year or at a stretch two.
      In heavyweight boxing it is. If you're saying it isn't young, then what was Fury doing beating up on a 41 year old Wlad Klitschko to win the undisputed? I think Wilder's power and athletism will make him look younger than 90% of the other heavyweights out there.

              Sounds like he has a few fights with the Saudis. The Parker fight is interesting. Parker has been active since losing to Joyce. He has skills but can he avoid Wilder’s right hand for 12 rounds? Does he have enough power to hurt Wilder? That is a good matchup on paper. I think Wilder gets him by the 8th round.

                I would love for Joe to do it , but I just can't see him staying away from those thunderous punchers for 12 rounds but as you say it's a good match up on paper and what makes it interesting is Joe has respectable power to make things happen if Wilder is not fully on his game. But I have to agree Wilder by the 8th.

                  Earth to Deontay, your old for a boxer, real old & year's past your phisical prime.
                  But still you'll have to wait another 4 year's for Aj to fight you so he can break his fossil record which currently stands at 41.

                  Wilder might get old just like that against Parker, we'll see.

                    Most of which contemporaries started late? Wilder was the latest to start at 20, Usyk at 15, Joshua 18, and Fury was born fighting.

                    Do you make up s*** or are you just off your rocker? Like, wth? lol.
                    When you're dropping Foreman and B-Hop's names that should be your sign you've missed the mark.

                      The only one that's missed something is you. Shut up and read the rest of the conversation.
