    lol the hell he has.

    Wilder is going to get flattened by Stiverne.

      In American...it is going to be VERY HARD, Don King was the man that help build the heavyweight division to what it was in America. Yeah we know he is a damn CROOK but you cannot deny his ability to promote the hell out of a fighter, especially a Heavyweight

      That being said, the fighter doesn't have to necessarily be an American, if someone like Anthony Joshua come over to the US early and rise to the top of the Heavyweight Division in the US he could be a MEGASTAR here in the US

      I agree with Tyson Fury as well, he wouldn't be criticized for his antics as much here in the US

      Wilder is very possible but he has to show he is the real deal, but if he destroys Stiverne I think the BUZZ will pick up for Wilder

                  So let me get this straight... Your saying that these pommy fighters could be considered greater if they moved to America, but probably not otherwise?

                  And you wonder why the rest of the world dislikes you with such arrogance.

                  When you have the champion boxers, then you can demand they come to America. Until then Germany is the throne of HW boxing and you can plant your ****ing asses into the airline seats!

                    Already been said a bunch in this thread, but if Deontay Wilder can keep knocking opponents out when he gets in the ring with the big name heavyweights, then the heavyweight division will be mainstream again in America which will increase its global appeal.

                    I'm rooting for him, beating Stiverne would be a huge first step.

                      Being American will increase its global appeal.

                      I can't believe what some yanks write around here!
