Just curious but why would Canelo fight GGG in East Europe or FMW fight Manny in the Philliphines? It seems you want Joshua to fight Wilder in Alabama or something? Protected? I think Wilder not fighting Vlad at 33-0 for undisputed because he was just a baby, wasn't ready, wasn't developed, is the pure definition of protected. When last I checked, Joshua has 2 Hall of Famers on his resume, several undefeated fighters, and damn near the whole top 10 in 21 fights. I'm not getting into Wilder fighting cruiserweight journeymen 20+ fights into his career.
Why wouldn't AJ fight outside England? He doesn't have to fight in Alabama. There's a lot of neutral cities like Munich, Tokyo, Perth, etc. Regardless of records AJ's handlers don't want Wilder. Wilder is hungry and raw and they've got a young, good looking, UK champ and can make more money by throwing over the hill, walk straight into punches, Russians at him for a few years.
Jesus, how bad HW are today. I hope that Usyk goes HW maybe he could save hw division.
Bum vs CrackheadTrash undercard with all tune up fightsOnly $74.99 HD, $64.99 SDSteven Espinoza and Al Haymon are out of their rabbit ass minds. At best this is a $19.99 fight and undercard. 8000 out of 21000 tickets sold. Failed attempt to package tickets on Groupon. $45 and street teams are up next to sell this trash fight.Boxing fans aren't fools. They saw what Fury look like 90 days ago vs a bum, doing the Rope-A-Dope and getting touched up.Frank Warren got Manny Pacquiao tax problems. Pretty obvious he is selling Fury ass to Haymon and Wilder for a bailout!
to the uninitiated fury looks bad in every one of his fights but his style is very effective at making his opponents look even worse. same thing against klitschkofury is technically on a different planet to wilder but lacks power. comfortable points victory fury
He beat a washed up and aging Klitschko whose time was up. He didn't beat him in his prime. His time is over.
I said it before. The top heavy weights today would be nothing but journeymen years back. They would be fighting for $500 bucks on some under card in the middle of no where. It's a shame that this fight even generates interest. Fury is one of the worst heavy weights ever to put on gloves.
I had a dream that, at the first bell, Fury just stood there like a stone statue and Wilder 1 punch KO'd him through the ropes. After he woke up with blood streaming from his head, he was ready to fight.Not sure how to interpret this.
the klitschko fury beat is 10x the fighter wilder will ever be. wilder has never fought anyone world class. his best opponent to date was an ageing ortiz who at best is a solid opponent but a definitely a rung or 2 below world class. and he struggled like fk to get past him. you'll see tomorrow night. wilder has a puncher's chance, nothing more. i can't see him winning a single round where there isn't a knockdown.
