Is Deontay Wilder an embarrassment to the HW division?

[Earl-Hickey]

He's not an embarrasment but he's been managed EXTREMELY well

after seeing Fury make a mockery of his skills I think it's obvious why he's been steered well clear of accurate big punchers, he's the type of guy who if matched tough would have multiple ko losses by now.

Wilder is still the same fighter that he has always been since holding a title. He's technically horrible, and that won't improve now in his 30s, but he has dynamite in his hands and can end any current heavyweight if he connects good enough.

I definitely disagree with that. I think he is a credit to the division in terms of his power alone. For a smaller guy to hit that hard is something that we should enjoy. Maybe i have been blinded or whatever because the technical side (Or lack of it) that most people seem to talk about previously, am now seeing it.

Was Marciano an embarrassment?

Marciano was fighting to earn every W in his matches. his 49-0 is a damn record..compared to wilders bum strike. and in no way Rocky was one dimensional fighter like HW champ Wilder is when he faces legit opposition.

[REDEEMER]

Outside the ring ? Yes.
Inside ? No. He's a top 3 fighter but if Klitschko was around he wouldn't be in the top 3. I still view Ortiz a boxer / puncher a legit threat and I rate them two around the same. You can argue skills but really only hardcore fans know how much he's lacking that's why he tries discrediting others careers while bigging up his.

Why would he be an embarrassment? He's an elite fighter who has reached the level of other elite fighters and still held his own. Sure Fury outslicked him...but then on the flip side he outpunched Fury. Against Ortiz he went power for power and eventually came out on top. It's a winners mentality. Same theory holds true for GGG who has found himself in similar adversity. The only one who tried and failed in this type of situation is Kovalev...who folded mentally and may never recover.

You know Marciano was considered to be a bum beater right? He was also criticized for retiring instead of fighting Floyd Patterson.

Picking apart someone’s resume is the easiest thing to do if you want.

Wilder was 50% of the biggest drama the HW division has seen in years .

Theres only 1 embarrasment to the HW division and his name isnt Tyson or Deontay

The most classless one.

[Derranged]

No.

However, his c0k slobbing fans are an embarrassment.
