Comments Thread For: Joshua: Tyson Fury Came So Close, He Won't Let it Go This Time!

People should watch these moments more carefully. Wilder's right and left were not clean and not very strong. A good chin wouldn't even have been dropped with them. Either Fury's chin is weaker than suspected or he just wanted to rest while lying on canvas.
Wilder talks rubbish as he wishes to underline and overestimate his power and his opponent while he prolly never knocked out anyone with his left hand.
That's the truth what practically noone wants to hear.

Interesting angle but I still feel Wilder has tremendous power.

"he's with Frank warren and I think it'll be easier to make a deal . . . "
Stfu, Warren absolutely detests hearn and it'll be no easier than dealing with haymon.

I question how much power Frank really has when it comes to promoting Fury.

Warren has stated in many interviews, he would be happy to make that fight as a co-broadcast with Sky/BT and co-promotion. Whether they could make that happen is another thing. And that’s even assuming Fury has any real contract with BT. But that’s not the problem. I don’t think Warren has any impact on the fight happening or not.

The problem with that fight is the USA side of things. Joshua fights on DAZN, Fury on ESPN. They are entirely different models, so won’t work together. One does PPV, the other doesn’t. So i don’t see how this fight is possible while Fury is contracted to ESPN. And even if AJ doesn’t have a contract with DAZN, i’m not sure Hearn would be keen on letting him go fight on ESPN for the biggest fight in boxing..

The sky/BT part would be ok, their models are basically identical and could work together.

Maybe they can do that, then foreign broadcasters bid for the rights, but that’s not going to happen when one or both are contracted to a broadcaster.

Of course he has, but let's hopefully see his power against a really good chin. E.g. Arreola has a very good chin and Wilder did not KO him despite hitting him hardly.
Wilder's power is huge but far from being overhuman.

Wilder did not KO Arreola? You got Wilder confused with that Polish guy.

Yes, good points, and with Joshua's ego to take into consideration as well, it won't be an easy fight to make!

That was Wilder’s first fight after hand surgery. I’m sure there was some hesitation & concern throwing that right hand during this fight. You have to consider that being a factor in this fight.

Thye first KD was a slip followed by a poosay azz tap to the top of the head. I dare you to do a gif of the 1st KD. Buuuuck! Buck! Buck! Wilder landed TWO punches the whole fight - both in the 12th.

If the 'Bronze-Bomber' hit you on the dome like this, you be in a coma.



Tyson Phooey only landed 13 more punches the whole fight against the champ Deontay Wilder. Now let me ask you this, how many knockdowns did Tyson score?

Errr Breland was doing more than praying, he was swearing and even walked away from the corner in frustration. You forget about all that? Not to mention they had to have a word with Wilder and tell him to start celebrating cuz he knew hed lost and was glumming around in his corner while Fury was bouncing off the ropes.

Bruh I just remember how Deontay blew the roof off Staples Center in the final round, I don't know what you were watching.

No, Arreola retired. Wilder did not KO him.

OK, fair point. That sort of confirms my point that Wilder is not capable to KO anyone with a good chin by his left hand.

Two knockdowns in two separate rounds, MASTERCLASS!

Is this poster a boxing fan at all or just a nuthugger. It is called BOXING for a reason.
