    Why are Spence and Wilder being attacked on here?

    They are not p4p fighters and not even heavily hyped on here at all or by boxing media..So why is anyone slamming them at all? Sure we would love to see Wilder fight better competition...And all we ask is for Spence to get his earned title shot..(fighting for a vacant title proves nothing)

      Wilder ducking Luis Ortiz, Spence, instead of being active and fight some good competition "Lamont Peterson" Choose to be inactive against Kell Brook, Spence can still be a mandatory even if fighting for others.

        I don't see Spence get that much heat, he is alright, has done ok for his age but could step it up. Wilder on the other hand has wasted the last three years of his career and deserves no respect.

          Not the same. Nobody is saying Wilder/Spence are ATG or top P4P fighters (though the Spence hype was getting a little ridiculous).

          I'm not a fan of Wilder or Spence before you start claiming i am.

            Spence's hype on the forum was definitely a bit strong, but he does deserve a title shot

            Wilder is not hyped, like at all. By anyone.

              That's why I want him to batter Kell Brook and not win a vacant title, due to boxing politics. Spence is not hyped enough here but you will all see soon.

                wilder deserves every bit of hate he gets. most protected fighter in the sport. theres no defending him, he hasnt actively tried to get the other champs in the ring his happy to just sit back and fight whatever bum his team picks up.

                  It's an open forum. No fighter is immune from criticism and I wouldn't have it any other way. Stop with the "elite, above attacks" mentality. And not every comment is a hate comment. They're called opinions. Geez...

                    I hype Wilder. He accomplished a lot for starting boxing in his 20s, and he's an entertaining fighter.
