Comments Thread For: Hearn: Let's See How Parker Reacts When Joshua Lands on Chin!

[N/A]

Are you saying Klitchko was not favored over Fury ?

Lame attempt to change the subject. You said most favored Klitschko over Joshua. Which was false. Joshua was the clear betting favorite.

[N/A]

are you seriously trying to claim that in 6 months he'd really gone from being the top rated heavyweight to a 'very very inactive old fighter who hadn't won a fight in years'?

No, we're simply claiming that since Wilder has beaten a top fighter in his prime and Joshua hasn't, people should stop acting like there is a cavernous gap between Wilder and Joshua's resumes. They're fairly similar. We tend to favor AJ's, as most do, but Wilder is still unfairly criticized. Especially considering Povetkin & King Kong pissed hot.

Ok then so aswell as above before klistchko went inactive.

The ring:

Heavyweights
Tyson Fury, Champion

Wladimir Klitschko
Deontay Wilder
Kubrat Pulev
Luis Ortiz
Anthony Joshua
Joseph Parker
Bermane Stiverne
David Haye
Andy Ruiz Jr.
Dillian Whyte

box rec I can’t find the history but given klistchko is #6 all-time is struggle to see him not being top!

Stop trying to argue that black is white. Everyone knows klistchko was regarded as one of, and in a high proportion - the absolute, best fighter still active, including fury. Infact bookies had klistchko favourite in a rematch. Joshua was a slight favourite when they fought, but pundits were very split.

This WBC idiot will be crying about Wilder not getting credit for fighting Ortiz ,hes already mentioned it yet this TRANSNATIONAL rankings HE goes by doesnt even have him ranked .

Yet even YOU acknowledged defeating older Klitchko is better than defeating Stiverne !

Indeed they are quite similar... but isn't that part of the reason why Wilder gets criticised? Wilder's had 40 fights, Joshua has had 20. They shouldn't have similar resumes at this stage... Wilder's should be head and shoulders above every fighter in the division right now, especially as the longest reigning heavyweight champion.

That said; I do agree that some of the criticism Wilder get's here is certainly over the top (same can be said for Joshua to be fair; each have a set of fanboys that seem to only want to discredit the other) but for the most part Wilder has deserved more criticism to date. What cannot be done is criticising Wilder's willingness to step up now though considering the Ortiz fight.

Joshua was 2 to 5 and even a 2 to 1 favorite in some places that is NOT a clear favorite . Everyone who ACTUALLY follows the sport knows many were picking Klitchko .

You wont answer the question bc in sayiing Klitchko WAS favored over Fury you then CANT say he wasnt ranked !

And? They're not mutually exclusive.

Still doesn't make any sense because why should Wilder, with so little amateur experience, be criticized for getting some fights under his belt before challenging for the title? And so many of his fights were first round knockouts that in order to get rounds under his belt, his team had to take things slow before a title shot.

But if you look at this title fights, are his opponents significantly worse than the opponents in Parker or AJ's title fights? No. So it's just haters *****ing for the sake of *****ing.

AJ was brought along very quickly. Good for him. That's lovely. It really is. That doesn't mean we get to lie about the quality of Wilder's title fights. And when you look at who he's fought in title fights compared to Parker, it's a joke to criticize Wilder.

The bottom line is that AJ fans know Wilder is the biggest threat. Everything is an excuse to justify delaying that fight. Where are the threads demanding that Parker face Dillian Whyte before getting AJ? The double standard is obvious and ridiculous.
