    African style?

    I'd say this was a classic description of Wilder's 'style' - Windmills and posturing.

      Yeah I think I read somewhere once that punches to the head are bad for you.

        Every fighter has their own style Hurd is a classic brawler, but that doesn't classify as African like you so oddly chose to go with. Canelo wasn't always that slick either damn sure isn't Mexican style you fool.
        So much racism here, it's hard to breath sometimes....almost like without using race as an excuse for any shortcoming in life would leave people with nothing to say at all.

          No more than any other boxer who uses his face as a defense, there's plenty of them around.

            ... I don't really think that Hurd actually realized what happened to him on Saturday... but maybe, now, after re-watching the fight several times, he would... (and he doesn't seem to be a ****** guy)...
            Yup , he really didn’t look like himself
            I hope he realizes what he’s doing to his body

              Man I'm so tired of these weirdos bro, but at least some people on here have some sense.
