    But hang on, i'm told by certain boxing experts such as Tyistall, that Wallin is a complete and utter tomato can & a disgrace to the sport.

    So what it is? Is Wallin a bum? Or a reasonable contender?
    Wallin is a solid fighter. He did better than expected against Tyson Fury and I think he has decent skills. Is he a world-beater? No, but I think he's a C+ level fighter who could be a B- on a good day.

      None of them ever were ranked legitimately. They were all dragged up out of nowhere and given temporary rankings by the WBC to fight Wilder, then crashed back down and out after he KO'd them.

        He's awful.
        But Fury is a weird one. Such a terrible resume and then randomly pops up with a top level fight to make it a good one. No consistency lol.

            No, but they were world title challengers.

              Didi you know that Wilder has a more powerful punch than Wallin?

              But Walling has more skills than Wilder?

                His performance against Fury showed us he is a very tough proposition for anyone. Dirty as **** and tough as nails.

                    He's a bum until proven otherwise but if wilder can beat him more devastatingly than fury did surely that's a good thing for wilder self esteem

                      When you have the opportunity to face Oscar Rivas or Andy Ruiz Junior? It is unacceptable that Fury would face Wallin again.

                      Anthony Joshua seems to be held to a higher standard of performance than Tyson Fury.
