Official-Showtime Boxing: Deontay Wilder vs Bermane Stiverne II RBR Thread

[daggum]

Agreed. Stiverne is pretty decent. I'd even call him "good". So many people hate Wilder though that Stiverne is automatically considered trash. If Stiverne's only loss was to AJ, people would be calling Bermane a top HW.

wow what a shocker you think stirverne the 39 year old fat out of shape inactive fighter with garbage resume is good. why would they call a guy with a sh-it resume and wins over 40 year old ray austin and arreola a top fighter? dont you actually have to do something to be a top fighter?

Daguum objects to my post?! Craziness....

His team is doing him a major disservice in letting him get so wide in his stance. Look how paralel his stance goes when he throws punches, ruining any hope of maintaining balance, because he can't stabilize himself. And, when you have your feet so far apart, it stifles your movement.

This is stuff tall guys need to be taught in their first year of boxing. Mind blowing that they can't get it together. The guy has a lot of potential and showed that in the last Stiverne fight, but he's getting horrible training, IMO.

So are big name pbc fighters done with fighting on free tv in meaningful fights?

Wilder was the one regularly featured on fox and now he is also fighting on showtime.

I believe Thurman vs Garcia was the last big fight on free tv.

I remember when the Showtime fights weren't even listed as pbc fights on the official pbc homepage. Now it's the focus of their schedule.

That is one of the main critiques i have of wilder. His trainers seem to not know wtf to do with him. Or he just cant ****ing learn. The guy makes so many mistakes and is so fundementally flawed, hes just getting by on power koing bums.
