Comments Thread For: Bronze Bombed Out: Zhang Knocks Out Wilder in Sixth Round

Wilder is done. I hope he has money saved and doesn't have brain damage. He'll start sounding like Shane soon.

He is easily going to the hall. He might finish with the highest ko% in history. There are way less deserving guys that are in the hall than wilder

His ko ratio against top 10 opponents is 2 of 8 or 25 percent ans both kos were against the same guy. If he had fought legit combination he wouldn't be known as a big puncher

Zhang is a heavy hitter who can move when he needs to. Wilder was landing clean a lot but Zhang
took his shots well. The Chinaman will always be a problem for everyone at heavyweight.

Poor guy was desperately looking for some help from referee but forgot it's not PBC

He wanted another break like against ortiz. The man never had a chin and better fighters are showing that. Fury isnt even a big puncher

Are we really shocked? Wilder never learned how to box, and because he never knew enough about the sport, he hired a terrible trainer.

Not a Wilder fan but I thought he would pull it off. Cong**** to Zhang for a solid win.

Good competition is Wilder's Achilles' heel.

Fury’s best win continues to age horribly

Why he was 38 by time he lost to another HW, two years out of the ring practically and clearly affected by the damage from the Fury fights/ayahuasca.

Pretty much proven by his extreme guy shyness against the featherfisted Parker...

Wilder still has a historic reign despite people's hatred towards him - he is tied 5th Most consecutive title defenses, 5th Highest knockout-to-win percentage in title fights, tied 6th Most opponents title was successfully defended against during one reign,10th Longest reign in history and a multitude of other things...

So regardless it's an historically significant win for Fury what happens after Fury has took pieces of him is hardly relevant.

No, we are not. Wilder is the biggest waste of taken in modern heavyweight history. He got too comfortable waiting to land one right hand and his defences were marred with giving away rounds. Once people learned how to press him it was over. Lazy fighter who didn’t have the discipline to adjust, ever
