Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: Nobody Fighting Killers Back To Back Like Me

[Noelanthony]

I love how folks keep saying Wilder was exposed when anyone with a whit of sense knows he will never be Ali or Holmes in the rings.

As I have said many times before, if you want to get an idea of who Wilder is, you have to think Marciano, Shavers, and Tua- not Bowe or Lennox.

Wilder, like Rocky, is a guy that will never be mistaken for a technical genius, yet is savvy enough to have delivered his power to ALL of his opponents. That in and of itself takes some kind of craft, if you think on it.

The bottom line is, you may not like what Wilder said- I personally think that you can't be overly critical of AJ's competition in 2018 either (EXCEPT perhaps Hearn should have tried harder to make one of the opponents Deontay THIS year). Parker and Povetkin are respectable opponents...but, they were not as much risk as Ortiz and Fury.

Wilder has a point.

Nicely articulated. You sure you are American??

Not a fan of the man, but he is right; fighting Ortiz an Fury was risky. Can't say the same about the other brit..

Hold on, I’m no AJ fan boy, but let’s be fair, Warren came out and said Fury was not ready for AJ for at least a few fights and then made a fight with Wilder. They straight up played him, there was no chance to make a fight.

[Noelanthony]

Yeah, just like Wilder initially won in 2017.

I think when all is said and done, Wilder will get his purse of 4.3M, Povetkin will get what's left of the 7.15M that is in escrow and both will claim they won.

But the only ones really getting paid will be the lawyers.

Yer welcome ya summumabinch! For a knucklehead semi-fanboy, you're OK in my book, Noel.

Lololololol

Claims to want the toughest fight, yet not one mention of fighting AJ, despite him knocking on his door publicly and the only real heavy hitter. Pretty much already admitting he’ll take his mando over a unification, real brave son

[Bossman15]

You are right. The other Brit only fought #3 Povetkin, Parker for unification, Hall of Fame boxer Klitschko and Whyte who is #1 WBC and WBO. Yeah, he sure is fighting chumps isn't he????? shaking my head...

Look Joshua fought nothing but bums his entire carreer only to be protected even more when he should said o this Wilder fight may be easier seeing what happened against Fury plus he boxed like he was scared to land or set punches up against Parker.

Whyte is a bum that is trying to make adjustments and fighting a washed up Klitchsko who defended his belts against top tier bums for 10 years means Jack plus Povetkin's body may not have been the same because he after the second round he looked washed I believe Joshua does not want the Smoke with Wilder Fury Miller or even Ortiz at this point wouldn't be shocked if they choose Usyk next

Actually, I aint sure.

Most folks here who are descended from African ****** aren't.

Hell, I was the one here who was leading the movement to have the Queen reinstated as our sovereign.

It sure would beat the bejesus out of what we have now...

Yep just look at AJ next voluntary against a guy he already KOd and went life and death with Chisora

[hugh grant]

I like this talk from wilder.. Wilder usually only sees himself as a killers as he hits hard. But it's good of him to acknowledge others as killers capable of doing to him what he does to others

Aj defeated 3 current top 10 hws who were undefeated and in their primes at the time, in only 20 fights or so....if u think he has fought nothing but bums...wat do u think of Wilder's first 40 fights?

"Not a fan of the man, but..." then proceeds to make fan boy comment. Same BS material I see over and over.
