If you cant call a 5 year belt holder top tier what do you call him. Fact is up until Feburary 22nd most boxing experts considered him top 3 in the world and the only thing that has changed is one of the other top 3 beat him. Way I see it until more people beat him he's still top tier in the division.
And let’s have it right, what made him be considered a top tier fighter? His punch power, that’s literally it lol I find it hard to call a guy that literally only has a big right hand in his repertoire as a top tier fighter.
At least Foreman had a better punch variety. Larry Holmes had a killer jab and could move. Both Klitschkos had top notch fundamentals. Lewis was an awesome boxer. AJ has actual boxing ability. In 20 years I guarantee Wilder will not be considered a great champion, just a great puncher.Comment

Interesting that he only sees himself as having two more fights - which sounded like Wilder and Joshua, then as he said 'hopefully sailing off into the sunset'.Comment

Fury has just started ruining himself again, it shows. By july he'll be the shadow of himself. Too bad since imo he's goat, potentially.Comment

What Wilder needs to do is work on his guard, because a duck-and-dodger he ain't. All he really knows to do when attacked with a one-two is try to cover up (and - let's be frank - he does it in a very ineffectual way at that; his guard leaves openings aplenty. I mean, kee-rist, at least try to keep your elbows closer to your body; check out Evander Holyfield for how to cover-up like a champ whilst still being able to fire-off a mean punch) and take some steps back, which allowed Fury to back him into the ropes as he pleased.
What Fury needs to do is keep friggin' working on his punching form, because whenever he fired off the jab and the right without doing his floppy-wrists thing it did some serious damage. I believe he should also work on trying to get his mid-range/infighting punches more compact, although this might be tricky given his unholy reach, lol.
They both fought very dirty in this fight. Fury's just got way more experience in doing so.Comment

Fury don't need to be perfect for 36 minutes now. Now that fury can stop wilder he can take a breather. Don't get paid for overtimeComment
