Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: I Ain't Afraid To Get Rid of The '0' On My Record

He was 38 nice try though. OTOH Klitschko was 41 when he fought AJ. I guess if you repeat a lie long enough it must be true

Bro, you didn't see my other post? I said AJ is a paper champion. AJ beat Fury's leftovers after the guy was essentially semi-retired for 2 years and nearly got knocked out himself in the process. Fury is clearly the most skilled heavyweight - and the winner of this fight is the real Heavyweight Champion.

What risks has Wilder been taking against the bums he has fought compared to AJ's risks?
He only took one risk against old man Ortiz thinking he could easily beat him and the Wilder says at one the 3 day press conferences that "Age is just a number" after Fury goaded him about nearly getting beat by an old man.

Remember that Wilder signed to fight Povetkin, who is Joshua's second best win, in Russia, but Povetkin failed a drugs test.

Exactly, it's not what I meant. What I meant was that Fury was undefeated but you are right however. Tyson has never been ducked or avoided. I was referring to Luis Ortiz who Wilder is contemplating rematching again, if he becomes victorious on Saturday night.

Fury was ducked by Haye twice

Wish all fighters seen it that way. That "0" crap has made a mess of boxing.

Remember that Wilder signed to fight Povetkin, who is Joshua's second best win, in Russia, but Povetkin failed a drugs test.

When he took the drug it was legal, when they tested him they didn’t give enough time for the drug to get out of his system. Povetkin won 4.3 million in court.

Wilder wasn't on some hustle pal to fight Fury. It was Fury who had reached out to him for a potential bout. It's not the other way around. Fury saw that his fellow countrymen was afraid of the "Bronze Bomber", therefore he stepped up to the plate, in order to save face and show AJ up by restoring honor and glory back to Great Britain after Joshua so badly disgraced it with his cowardice.

Yes Tyson did reach out to Wilder and of course Wilder is gonna accept thinking of an easy fight knowing Fury might not be match fit after 2 come back fights.

That's a good attitude to have. We need more fighters with this attitude. Floyd gave us the perception that being undefeated is the be all end all, when it's clearly not. All great fighters lose but they become great only after they get back up and win again. That's what a champion is. I'm not saying losing should be acceptable, of course not, but the fear of losing shouldn't hold you back. Keep it up Wilder. BOOOOOMB SQUAAAD!!

Why is Wilder and his fans helping to hype Ortiz? What is in it for them?

[QUOTE=champion4ever;19305468]After Saturday night the whole world is going to know who he is and that is a fact. He would be crowned the lineal's peoples champion.[/QUOTE


If he wins...But know he wins a Fury whose last two fights against bums was atrocious no wonder Vegas rejected this poor offering and still why tickets aiit sold out yet.

It's so sad that you guys are missing the point. What he is saying is that he unafraid of taking risks and daring to be great unlike Anthony Joshua. He is willing to put both his career, health and life on the line in order to achieve that greatness.

Lolx.... Why wait till fight #40?
Has he been sleeping when others were unifying?
Did he just woke from slumber?

Go take a chill pill Mr interpreter. Lolx.
