Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder II: Afterthoughts

[Alx.]

Wilder had been WBC champion for 5 years .... fighting nothing but cans, old men, and Tyson Fury's shadow in their first fight. He just got exposed for what he is and has always been ... a protected, fake, hype-job and a paper champion.

Wilder is finished. He will never beat a genuine top 5 HW. He doesn't have it in him

You said the same thing about Joshua.

You must be confusing me with someone else.

Good article. And Wilder can take pride in knowing he defended his WBC belt 10 times.

Ortiz aint that old, you over here putting up lies.

Aint you that same pvssy-g fan saying he's an all time great too?

Who has Ortiz beating??? When offered 7m from AJ he ran off to Cuba hiding, Ortiz and wilder are so overrated son, must be very sad been a Wilder fan.

Finally do you reckon Fury was first chosen by Wilder because they Dibella, Finkle all thought it was be easy work? Fury is a cherry pick gone wrong. Wilder is an absolute disgrace. Most protected champ ever!

Yeah against bums and old men, Whytes resume thrumps Wilders, so called baddest man got exposed then beaten like a dog by a pillow fisted guy, Whyte would have killed his ass if he had balls to step up.

Real boxing fans have always known that Wilder has a suspect chin. What he does is to put fear in the minds of his opponents by mystifying the "right hand". That has been demystified now. The World can see him for who he really is: no skill, no in-fighting game, no legs, and more, no brain or ring IQ.

How is he even a boxer and how did he become a WBC belt holder with 11 defenses?

True Champions are graceful in defeat

I am very much disappointed in the way Wilder handled his defeat to Fury. I am not his fan but had respected him for his achievements even though I was never impressed by them. I really never thought of him as a guy who could give excuses should he lose partly because of how he carried himself. To blame a costume for a loss is absurd to say the least. I have now come to realize that all that was a facade.
I remember when Joshua lost to Ruiz Jr, Wilder was leading the attack of pulling Joshua down and telling us all that he was finished. Joshua accepted his defeat like a man even though we all could see there was something wrong with him even before the fight started. Wilder was against Joshua taking an immediate rematch citing that there is no way Joshua could win a rematch with Ruiz. When Joshua won his rematch, Wilder again complained that Joshua stole someone else's style, running around to win.
Wilder is now in the same position Joshua was in June 1. Wilder has been battered, outboxed, outpunched and saved by his corner by throwing a towel. Joshua's fight was called off by the referee and Wilder's was stopped by his corner. Which one is more humiliating? Wilder now has pressure to avenge his loss against the all talented and now revealed puncher. He has a mount Kilimanjaro to climb.
In as much as I want to see Joshua vs Fury fight, I think we must all be patient and give Wilder a chance to fight Fury again, a chance to redeem himself like Joshua did. Who knows, maybe he can be lucky to land a flash right hand this time and knock Fury out cold. The lesson learned from Joshua and Wilder is that no one is unbeatable even Fury if he is not going to retire soon, he will also be beaten. Ali, Foreman, andTyson have loses on their records and yet they are the greatest heavyweights of our time. To Wilder I would say, you still have a chance to redeem yourself and regain your WBC belt just like Joshua regained his 4 belts. And if you win, please we would like to see the undisputed championship fight immediately thereafter.

Beating bums doesn't make you top 5.

You over here ACTING like there's more out there

Article's conclusion: "It could actually be smart to let a Fury-Joshua fight unfold, get a knockout or two in the meantime, and be the big money name standing. Wilder can still knock out almost anyone in the world. Now we find out what happens when everyone knows he can be stopped too."

His 3 wins before fighting Wilder are Daniel Martz, Dave Allen and Malik Scott.

His next 3 wins after losing to Wilder are Cojanu, Kauffman and Hammer

He has only one good win in his whole career - Jennings, who was coming off a loss and that was almost 5 years ago.

How can Ortiz be a top 5 with a resume like that?
