      I don't like this fight for Wardley, I didn't like the Miller fight either.
      So wardley needs a special protection?

        It is absolutely crazy but Wardley when he came up moved very well, was light on his feet, threw all punches, had head movement, and somewhere down the line he fell in love with his power and became rather average. Just another big guy with a big punch who gases quickly. I struggle to understand WHY he changed courses! Nobody seems to notice and I am beginning to think it was another time line!

          Wardley is definitely going down the wrong path... He needs to get back to his boxing that made him special.

            This is good fight hunI has potential. But I wanted to see Wardle put dent in Millar head like fraser had. Of course no permanent harm though of course

                I agree he is a sub par boxer' but hit can hit and take a good punch ( I think so ). As such has a pucher's chace.

                  To a degree, I think so.
                  He had zero amateur fights with only 4 white collar bouts and has very limited experience in the pros and is still relatively young for a HW.
                  With the division being wide open and Saudi money flying everywhere I don't see why you don't strategically move him and allow him to gain experience along the way.

                  I think he's got himself into an excellent position I don't see why you throw it all away fighting a rather unheard of Huni who will likely box the head off him for chump change.
                  Get him some experience against durable HWs who will extend him rounds and have him fight for one of the belts when Usyk vacates in a year or so's time.

                    I remember he had a more herky-jerky style, these days he has absolutely fallen in love with his power like you said.
                    Static, waits and waits and loads up on the right hand he doesn't even set up and ends up gassing because he puts everything into it. Its like he has no reflexes at all anymore. Lazy, doesn't even try move his head or get out of the way of shots as he's so focused on trying to end the fight with one shot.

                    Its exciting and the division is so bad that a pair of stones and a good punch can really see you do well but I think as soon as someone can take his power or doesn't stay there inviting the right hand he'll get badly exposed.

                    I like him I just don't like the team around him or how he is being handled.
