Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder Title Defense Set For July 16 in Birmingham

[Eff Pandas]

Feel like Pulev woulda been a as beatable & more deserving guy to fight for Wilder. Arreola has been halfassing it for awhile now & shouldn't even be getting a title shot for any major belt.

Also don't really see a purpose for a Jacobs vs Mora II matchup. No one wanted to see the first fight regardless of the weirdness of the ending. Jacobs should be moving onward & upwards instead of sideways.

These are the type of fights that give PBC the bad rep it has with even the more reasonable guys (you aren't pleasing the haters). I mean why are guys like Arreola & Mora being giving indefinite opportunities? Are these guys that known that just building the new names off of these old names is a solid strategy to take? **** maybe idk, but I hate that Arreola has been one of the most televised PBC guys & outside of Wilder probably the most televised HW & he doesn't look like he's taken the sport seriously in a couple years. Arreola needs to be fighting on club shows in Texas or Cali not on national f#cking TV.

Arreola came in tip-top shape against Kauffman and clearly lost the fight but got a gift. Kauffman should have his chance at Wilder. It's like Arreola test positive and then they give him a reward... Plus Kauffman says if he doesn't knock Wilder out then Wilder can have his purse... #TeamKauffman

lol watch arreola lands a bomb and knocks out wilder and takes his belt lol.

Damn americans holding championship belts hostage fighting tomato cans. How you can go from fighting bermane stiverene to fighting bermane stiverne's leftovers is a focking disgrace.

The dirty Russian is the reason Arreola is happening.

lol watch arreola lands a bomb and knocks out wilder and takes his belt lol.

Yeah....just watch you come up with an excuse when Chris gets face-planted.

Is Wilder only ever going to face Haymon promoted boxers ?

Yep... Nothing unusual there. Don king did it all the time. Andrew golota got 3 title fights in a row against king's stable of champions. Byrd, ruiz & brewster. Arreola is popular & a name so it is what it is. Could be worse. If stiverne beat wilder his first voluntary was going to be against De Mori who was with king at the time. When wilder won king gave de mori his release out of respect so he could pursue other fights which led to the Haye fight. De mori had a top 15 with both WBA & WBC from winning regional belts. Other fighters outside haymon's stable will need to win regional belts & get into an eliminator situation. It's a keep it in the family sport.

I see Washington as the obvious pick he's in shape young undefeated and hungry he deserves it more than Areola same with Pulev or Price I could even settle for Ruiz or Bryan even tho he looked a bit slow in his last fight

Now with Jacobs he has no business fighting more right now he needs to step up and fight Saunder's or Eubank next mainly Saunder's cause I think Golovkin will get Eubank next just based on Canelo's situation those matchups looks real great but it seems like no one is willing to face the best

This is either a post by Wilder, one of his goones or a brain dead man
BUM SQUAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad that dumb Russian got caught juicing.
