    Well I agree with you on many points. I think people nowdays over dramatize **** all the time. The case with Wilder is that he didn't exactly have a long amateur background so he's been taking along carefully to get the experience.

    But anyone calling David haye a bum is just a ****** tbh.

    i would say it was hard in that he couldnt land **** and it went 12 rounds....but it wasnt hard in that he was ever in any trouble.

    Ward earns more than Froch. Where you got this myth from that Froch earns more than Ward? The only reason Froch is getting a big payday for this fight is because its SBO

    according to sources ward earned $1.3 for dawson in a 'super fight'

    Froch is taking $3.04 million for kessler if you believe the low figure and more if you believe the higher figure

    so how does ward earn more...when he claraly doesnt?
