    Oh...... please name them just out of curiosity

      Wilder fought like he has become a Buddhist monk. No urgency, just going through the motions. I have always criticised Wilder throughout his Career but the way he fought even by his standards was shocking. I like Parker but I still wanted Wilder to knock him out just because. Wilder really has trouble with fighters that are willing to stand their ground. Having said that Wilder needs to jump back in the ring ASAP with a killer and get his strips back. A zhang would be perfect. Although Zhang could easily beat Wilder if he fights anything like he did yesterday

        Hit hard or no, what perplexed me last night was how shaky Wilder's legs were, even worse than they used to be.

        I think Ayahuasca is not doing his brain and nerves any favor.

            I think he hits hard, he just never caught Parker flush at all. Parker had a really good strategy of smothering him. Attacking and smothering, rinse and repeat. Worked like a charm every round. And in the last round, when Wilder decided to fight, Parker just smothered him for 3 minutes. He never let Wilder get off at all. Credit to Parker for that.

              He didn't punch. Hard to be a hard hitter if you don't even try to hit. Not sure if he's shot or what, because he looked like he was trying to be a giant version of Rigo, but without the skills. If he can't pull the trigger and step to guys anymore, he's done.

                Where did you get that data?

                No doubt power tie to class.

                  Wilder looked “off” walking in the ring. His legs were unsteady in the first round. Timing was horrible . No interest in fighting in two years. These kids are business men who fight not The other way around. They have NO PASSION.
                  AJ looked great! I was surprised.

                    Dropping Fury many times without doing any damage doesn`t mean you have some special power.

                    His power means he KO`d many bums, but all guys do it, so, nothing special.
                    Time to admit there are too many people on here with no life and need to feel attention so they make up DUMB THREADS.
