Wilder: Tyson Fury deserves more respect than Anthony Joshua!

[oscar9992]

Wilder disses Anthony Joshua & praise Tyson Fury, says Fury deserves more respect than AJ!

[1hourRun]

I don't agree with Deontay about Tyson deserving more respect, hes a fraud like A.J to be honest but at least Joshua has carried the torch ; the cheat Tyson Fury never even made a defense of his world titles.

I mean Tyson Fury became lineal champion in Germany, Anthony Joshua beat a Charles Martin in his home country and Fury's left overs Wladmir Klistchko again in his home country. Then the nut-job headed to America and got in Deontays face after Spzilka got folded on Showtime and free on YT-- but I don't see A.J doing any of that ; never fought in America or called out da champ man to man...so I guess what I'm trying to say is they both suck and Deontay Wilder sons them.

The context of this is:
"it's not fair that people respect Joshua more than me. waaaa, waaa, waaa."

I'm beginning to seriously question Wilder's faith in himself, for all his bravado it's becoming more and more clear that actually he is pretty desperate for people's approval and to be recognised as 'the man'. Those kind of cravings aren't exactly the sign of a self assured man.

dude's gotta be consistent. fury was popped twice for drugs, including a positive test for nandrolone, a big boy anabolic steroid.

I think Wilder is jealous of AJ who is more respected than he is by many and makes more money than he does. AJ has a better record than Wilder.The Wlad that AJ KOed sure looked like a better fighter than the Wlad who lost to Fury. Fury threw away the heavyweight championship of the world. Wilder has never fought a boxer as good or high ranked as the Wlad that lost to AJ.

What a hypocrite

[Mr Objecitivity]

I'm sorry, but I can't 'respect' somebody who themselves don't 'respect' the very sport or occupation that they use to earn a living. Tyson Fury has consistently disrespected the sport of boxing. Why should I respect Fury?

At least Joshua respects the sport and is disciplined. Thus, he has earned his respect.

I was a huge Fury fan, I still am (if he ever comes back), but this is just Wilder attempting to diss AJ.

[Redd Foxx]

I don't agree, BUT I do want to see Fury v Wilder more than either one fighting Joshua. Sadly, it'll never happen with Fury having been fat for too long to ever get back to the top in boxing.

That's because he was fighting a much more stationary target in that fight. If the Wlad who fought AJ had fought the same version of Fury that he'd fought in Germany I'd expect a similar type of fight.
