"and frank warren already got it on yo butt" (to barry hearn) lmfao
on morning tv.
and a min later he's talking about the gathering and being a pastor.

i wish wilder was a brit man, he would be on chisora level funny and actually be popular for being a lunatic.

i think its the american fans...the pbc cult mentality around him which passes onto him...that spoils him.
chisora is capable of losing the plot but comes back to being totally normal.

It's a classic clip
Wilder is funny without trying to be ''to dis day !''

I'm a Lewis fan but he didn't exactly go to war with David Tua did he?
Horses for courses.

He decisioned him didn't he. Tua wasn't a tripple by pass waiting to happen. And had not knocked Lewis all around the ring like a rag doll like Ruiz did to fake Joshua

There were plenty of other fights where Lewis was criticised for being overly cautious. Many called him boring in fact.

Andy Ruiz lost the fight, more than Joshua won it. Ruiz refused to let his hands go, believing for some reason that he was this one punch knockout artist. He didn't listen to his corner and the hype got to his head, forgetting that it was his combination punches that beat Joshua, not his power. You would see flashes of it throughout the fight, then he'd hang back. Very frustrating and unfortunate. Kudos to Joshua for sticking to the game plan and getting the win. Hope Ruiz does the same in his future fights. Would a shame if he didn't realize how good he really can be...

Lol you're fooling no-one. Yeah after he was highly bussed, he clinched. But he went to take Ruiz's head off that fight. It's f**cking exciting to watch.

This fight was boring af.

Dude, I'm not trying to fool anyone. You're the one who said clinching should be banned when the truth is all fighters clinch.

[Sane Man]

Truth but it is also true that if Joshua stopped moving, got off his bike, he would not have survived.

Joshua put on a clinic and outboxed Ruiz.

Joshua was on his bike to survive.

Both statements are true.

I completely agree. If Joshua stood rooted to the spot with his hands limply at his sides he would not have survived.

Should he have done that? This is boxing.

Personally, I don't find either guy boring but as a Lewis fan at the time I know that many people did.
While Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe and Ruddock were putting on wars, Lewis's backfoot Euro style wasn't widely appreciated.

[Bandman]

Wilder sounds like a hater man He wanted an easier touch and is now a salty little ***** about it.

I hope he enjoyed the past 6 months, he's back to b-side now.

Ruiz will give Wilder more problems than AJ. so what "easier touch" you talking bout? you think that style from AJ would work against Wilder? lol. ruiz arms too short Wilder is gonna send that fool's head to the third row
