He had that ******ed Joe Frazier going minus the skill and workrate. But it looked to me like he knew when he should be throwing punches but couldn't get his nervous system to cooperate. I kinda believe him as far as it not being his night.

Those stiff jabs gave him the 'Oh shit, he's for real' signal, that's what it was. Stiverne always had shit footwork, it doesn't work for him, I said this a while back too. Garcia uses similar footwork but he's a better counter puncher in the center of the ring, Stiverne needs you to corner him.

Originally posted by Victorious713 View PostLost respect for Stiverne for these excuses. Take a beating like a man.

Dude he talked so much ****, said he sees fear in Wilders eyes, hes trying to catch a case, hes gonna expose him, ect. ect.
He couldn't even say anything in the post fight interview. Wilder shut his ass up and have him a mouth full of crow.
He was 100% in all his pre fight interviews, he was also 100% at the press conference and All Access . Now all of a sudden hes not lol.
i think he just cant take the fact wilder beat him, he said wilder was a fraud but turned out he wasnt

Stiverne definitely looked very "flat" in his performance last night. And it might be attributable to the long layoff in between fights. Against Arreola, Stiverne looked much more fresh and his punches were much more crisp and snapping.

Getting hemmed up like he did early in that fight would make you think you are going to throw 4 or 5 shots and then throwing two. He's got a hell of a beard but he got saved by the bell early on, he was all kinds of fk'd up. I'd hope they went and gave him a thorough check up he ate wayyyyyy too many right hands.
