Comments Thread For: Holyfield: Wilder is The Best at Heavyweight, Not Joshua

[Rusty Tromboni]

Oh yeah, everyone saw his discretion when Fury lay lifeless for half the count. What a great man, an X-Man, really.

He could truly see the future. He just knew Fury would wake up from the KO eventually. Fury looked so collected with his dead eyes.

LOL

Yes or no: Fury made the count?

Yes or no: Fury won the rest of the round handidly?

Yes or no: Fury ran away w/ the fight?


It's pretty obvious you're butt-hurt. Next time you should ask Tyson to use vaseline.



Or maybe, for starters, you shouldn't be such a tart, if you don't want the pain?
Talk about morning-after regrets.

1. No, an accurate timing of the count (you know, one not at the referee's discretion shows Tyson didn't get up in time.

2. Nope. Wilder was landing on him after getting up, too. Huge left hooks. Wilder gassed near the end of the round, however, especially after all that celebrating after having KOed Fury.

3. Also no. Saw Wilder win, both ways. Lifting your arms up after every round doesn't mean you won it.

How many know it alls on this thread have ever refereed a fight? 0

How many keyboard warriors have ever judged a fight on this thread? 0

Please, STFU. All you have are your opinions, many of which are ludicrous.

Out of 100 posts on this thread I know for a fact 1 poster has judged a fight who also has excellent insight on the referee's job.

You people living vicariously through these boxing pros who constantly criticize them need to go to school. Until then STFU. There is not one arm chair warrior that knows what it's like to be an integral part of the outcome of a prize fight.

You are myopic.

The man beat the count, otherwise every time someone got dropped the fight would be stopped. The same type of people crying the fight should’ve been stopped are the same people that cry everything isn’t handed to them, the same type of people rejoicing over $15 minimum wage. It’s a mentality. Instead of understanding how you were able to drop the opponent with your ability and believing in yourself to go out and do it again, these type of people truly don’t believe in themselves and instead cry till something gets handed to them. Enjoy your $15 an hr at McDonald’s and star bucks.. cause yous started from the bottom now you’re here 😂 😂 😂

If you want to talk about counts, this fight would never have taking place monkey cause wilder would’ve been stopped by Ortiz. Another crying be-och gotta be put in check

The fact that you even start the sentence with "against Klitschko".... even the shopworn version of Klitschko is better than 95% of Wilder's opponents.

Joshua has had just three fights since Klitschko, one to unify against a title holder, another against a former world champion. The public may not have clamoured for Parker or Povetski, but the guy's hardly been fighting cans.

I saw a rundown of Wilder's resume on here the other day (just looked for it, can't locate it right now) and he's rarely fought people inside the top 50.

You guys are always copping out by avoiding the present. Let's look at the current. Damn the past! Who has been making the most noise in the heavyweight division lately by taking on some the riskiest and most dangerous undefeated opponents today? You are damn right! It's Deontay Wilder.

So much so that he is now forcing Anthony Joshua out of his comfort zone of England, to travel globally and to the United States to stage fights here for fear of Wilder's profile surpassing his on a global scale.

That's why Tyson Fury has signed with ESPN and fighting in the U.S. Because he is building his brand off of Deontay Wilder's name and profile. Also, wrong; Miller will mark AJ's fourth fight since defeating Wladimir Klitschko in April of 2017.

He's one of the true gladiators, along with Evander Holyfield, Muhammad Ali, and Jack Johnson, who will challenge anyone to prove himself to the people. His self-belief in the ring is so strong. Even when it looks like he has no chance, he battles on like it's the very first round and always finds a way to strike down his adversaries. His fights will be remembered forever by people around the world.

I couldn't have said it any better than that. Good job!

hahahah yeahhhh ok!!!

your logic doesnt compute

the same people that complain about some extra seconds between rounds are the same guys that say ortiz is old and gassed horribly

so in essence that extra time should have also helped ortiz recover from punching himself out at the end of the previous round

look...ill be dead honest.....ortiz caught wilder and stunned and hurt him....but wilder was never in any serious danger or badly hurt....guys get caught with good clean hard shots and it stuns them momentarily and leaves them open...the other guy sees it...and he pounces...hes got wilder out of position and now ortiz is in position to throw the kitchen sink at him...which is what he did

had ortiz landed another big shot that wilder didnt see then wilder would have been in trouble

but wilder weathered the storm and was never badly hurt...he was in a bad position because the other guy was in a great one...ortiz was one shot ahead of wilder once he stunned him.....its a position weve seen countless fighters in...some get caught with another and stopped....some weather the storm and survive to see another round

wilder never left his feet and shook his head at the bell to signal he wasnt hurt

some of you guys make it out to be way more than what it really was because you hate wilder....

Jesus, this comment section is a disaster. Holyfield states his opinion and a bunch of online tough guys go apoplectic trying to discredit the man, as if they know boxing better than a former champion. It's not unreasonable to feel that way, it's the level disrespect merely because of disagreement that is completely out of place. Get a ****ing grip weirdos, you're making this site unbearable.
