Comments Thread For: Wilder: I Can't Stand Hearn, But He's Right - Fury is Boring

[James Hunt]

Wilder and Gypsy Clown are both just a miserable lunatics. Damn, they can't even sell 20.000 seat arena - at least half of it still unsold. And PPV sales will also tank. Such a misery.

Probably more people using the staples center site to track the lack of sales than buy anything.

Still nice to see the fans destroy Wilder at the weigh in , Showtime had to mute the crowd sound but the other channels got it.

Sounds like Wilder is already concerned with Fury making it a boring fight and completely neutralizing the windmill attack. Wilder is getting scared that Fury might just box his ears off for 12 rounds.

I think when Hearn said this (Which i think was an honest assessment of Fury) he was blasted for "Hating" by the Wilder fanatics. At the end of the day if you understand anything about boxing and styles then you would know that Fury has the ring IQ to make it boring if he wants to. Especially if he respects Wilder power so much. If Wilder cracks him early on without knocking him out and he thinks Wilder hits too hard then you can expect a boring fight from then onwards.

Is that what they did? Because i was wondering why i saw two videos and two different reaction. The first one was definitely showtime and the other one was from a random youtuber.

my question is, when fury nails pregnant beyonce with a left body shot, will he be arrested for attempted murder on the fetus?

lmfao.....

Wilder-Ortiz had everything! both top five, undefeated ; KO artist. Southpaw vs. Orthodox, the sweetscience, brutality, falls, high action drama, controversy, courage, heart!

Dont tell me you didn't witness a classic!

A classic?

come on, that's an overstatement haha.

it was a stinker for most of the fight with an exciting couple of rounds at the end. Even that part wasn't great because the ref and doctor helped Wilder out and took the excitement away.

Yeah, it was basically a 95% pro Fury crowd. Wilder was getting boo'd loudly and chants of "you big dosser" etc..so Showtime turned down the crowd and turned up the music.

Wilder had no support there apart from a very small amount.

One of Fury's best traits as a boxer is actually the fact he doesn't care if he stinks the place out or not. Floyd and Hopkins always had that mentality too.

it's not good for the fans, but you kind of have to admire the mentality of the fighter that they never get caught up in the moment or react to the crowd and try to entertain.

As i say, from an entertainment perspective it's not good, but if you're facing an opponent with that mentality, it's always a sign of their focus on winning by any means necessary.

Fury is more entertaining outside the ring than in it that’s for sure.
