Wilder vs Ortiz would be the most exciting whilst it lasted, I wouldn't see Wilder making it beyond the 2nd or 3rd round. Ortiz at this stage would stop Wlad, I don't see any other boxer in the division stopping Klitschko bar Ortiz, Joshua would be exposed as would Wilder, Fury will never have the belief in himself to really step on it against Klitschko, the rematch will be another ugly boring fight like the first if Wlad does not let his hands go.

I said Wlad was past his prime. I've said that for a while. Not dressing that up as anything else. But he was the same guy who beat Pulev, who beat Jennings and who beat Povetkin. Fury fought the exact same guy.
He didn't fight a worse version. In fact, I thought he looked fresher than what he did against Jennings or Povetkin. His feet looked considerably better.
What you guys are now saying is that Wlad got old over night which is totally ridiculous.Comment

I personally said Klitschko has enough to beat Fury and I stand by that because he does. If he puts two punches together Fury will be carried out of the ring. I said he had slowed a step too, the Jennings fight is the most telling, his detractors were all him saying he's shot etc and Klitschko fans rightly stood by their man, it wasn't Klitschko fans saying he was shot and slowing down that was his critics.
In the build up to a fight were not gonna sit there and say Wlad has slowed down considerably to the point Fury has the best chance he will ever have, what kind of mentality is that ?
You remarked Wlad was slowing as early as the Pulev fight that he had lost a step and would not be being tagged had it been three years earlier. I never agreed with that notion at the time but I do now, I also thought the performance versus Jennings was extremely poor yet put it down to apprehension with strict officiating and his first time aboard in seven years I believe.
The tell take signs are and were there only now you seek to bury them and your head in the sand. It is funny.Comment

anyone who has been here as long as me knows I was one of the antagonists that use to get hate mail sent my way regularily for hacking on the klitschko nuthuggers. I got voted most hated poster one year. Over the years I learned to appreciate him even though I cheered against him. He is like Larry Holmes. At his best there wasn't as many premier challengers until the last few years. I'm just pointing out an observation I made since he lost. The Nuthuggers were all over Fury & gave him little chance but BAM! just like that they disappeared... You were not around in my prime days. I had a lot of hate come my way... I toned it down the last few years...Last edited by joe strong; 03-14-2016, 10:21 PM.Comment

They're probably having a love-in with the Broner fans.Comment

Not only do you fail to spot the obvious sarcasm in that post the first time you quoted it, but you then quote it a second time in another thread, thinking to draw even more attention to my "rampant Klit nuthuggery." Priceless.
You, sir, are a superlative example of an astute and mentally capable individual.
See if you get it this time.Comment

They are very quiet these days, aren't they? The few I have noticed seem to spend their energy trying to discredit Tyson Fury and acting as if his victory was a fluke.
Very similar in a way to the fanatics that claim Juan Manuel Marquez only beat Pacquiao because of a "lucky punch."Comment

Now you're hiding behind sarcasm as an excuse for your ******ity.
