Comments Thread For: Haye Details Wilder's Deadly Power, Praises Fury For Stepping Up

[OldTerry]

I don’t doubt this fight can sell but I think the U.K. ppv market will be very small for a Vegas fight that isn’t Joshua. I’m wondering if Warren will be showcasing any of his other fighters.

Oh yea, he'll have load up the card. Wilder and Fury is going to be a fairly frustrating fight to watch up until the point Wilder tags him and dismantles him. That might happen early, thus a short fight but it ends the boredom.

it's birdlegs who is doing the stepping up not tyson fury

Josh didn't step up. So fury haven gi v e n wilder and josh 3 years extra experience, while stopping his own development, before getting in ring with them.

Deontay Wilder is a bum with a big punch. A 50% Fury will school him.

Haye ****ed Wilder up in sparring btw, as did Wlad and many others.

Yeah & Wilder has maybe 8 years combined boxing experience between pro & amateur. That Wilder even landed on either one of them says a lot.

Wilder is getting better & better. Even if Fury hadn’t been our for 2 years, Wilder stills busts him up.
No matter your perception of his opposition, you don’t knock out every opponent through 40 fights if you don’t have legit punching power.
Now, if he had several gift decisions like Canelo, Berto, & Devon, I might be inclined to agree; but, these are brutal knockouts.
Wilder has KO’d Ortiz, Arreola (with a torn right bicep & broken hand), Stiverne, Liahovich, Audley, Washington, Duhuappas, Kelvin Price, Malik Scott, Szpilka, Molina, & boxed a 12 round shutout in Stiverne 1.
If Joshua’s resume is better, than more power to those who feel that way

Haye isn’t jealous like wilder and fury he’s already had his time in the spotlight

Haye is working for bt sport now commentating so his nose is fully up warrens hoop

He’s basically a paid hype man now .. good for him

so what about carl froch?

what about parker ahead of the whyte fight? parker was about to be getting paid by hearn again and still said what he said about AJ/wilder.....

I’m not sure why what I expect the attendance to be has any bearing. You’re saying that the British abandon fighters after a loss... the facts say in fights immediately after losses, British fighters have sold out arenas and stadiums... so that suggests otherwise doesn’t it?

I think you’re mistaking fighters being abandoned for losing, with fighters becoming unpopular because of their respective personalities.

Khan talks a lot of rubbish, is seen as avoiding the Brook fight and believing his own hype, chasing a Mayweather fight without deserving it etc.

Haye pulled out of a number of fights, hyped himself up against Klitschko then fought badly, had an undignified ruck with Chisora at a press conference and is a bit of a showpony chasing cash and pulling the wool over fans eyes (people still backed him even in the second Bellew fight though).

Fury is a ****phobic, misogynistic gypsy with an extremely abrasive, divisive personality that puts half the country off. (The other half love him). Still unbeaten so it’s hard to see how people will react if he loses - imagine many will be glad!

Froch has always been popular to my knowledge, he’s seen as a warrior who fought anyone. He only started to rub people up the wrong way when he started to mention 80000 people at every opportunity.

Disguise it however you like but this isn't soccer. When a fighter loses, he's yesterdays news. The end

As supported by absolutely none of the evidence. The end.
