No, what you see me do is dis Joshua on a regular basis. After his fight with Wlad, I paid Joshua homage and gave him his respect. And my post history reflects this so try again. You just pulled this out of your ass just because lmao.Comment

Just, you know, why pretend he wasn't hurt? It's ******. He should be talking up how well he took those punches while hurt and the fact he came back from the brink. Like, "this is the closest anyone can get me to getting knocked out and I didn't even go down."
BTW, literally every fighter ever gets criticized, no matter how easy they won the fight.Comment

Buddy, I don't know what gave you the impression that I'm criticizing Wilder or somehow upset that Kovalev lost to Ward, but you're barking up the wrong tree. I'm impressed that Wilder recovered from that 7th round and came back to get the KO.

Sure it LOOKED like he was hurt, but he didn't go down..and he was hit with Ortiz's right hook, straight left, and body shots. How hurt was he to you? Out on his feet hurt, physically hurt, what?
If he was truly hurting, he would've probably went down or taken a knee which many boxers don't do when under pressure. Adrenaline may have taken over.
There is hurt, and then there is hurt. Wilder said that the punches didn't hurt, but that he was wobbled and that Ortiz's punches knocked him off balance. Am I supposed to believe you over him? If he says he wasn't hurt, he wasn't hurt.
What he's talking about as a fighter could mean a different type of hurt than what you're thinking. Boxers have to show that type of courage in sparring and a fight. Don't ever show that you were hurt, and at times don't admit that you were hurt. Most fighters that I know aren't afraid to admit that they were hurt. I don't think that he was pretending or lying that he was hurt.Comment
