    And this is why there hasn't been any great HW boxing on Showtime in almost two decades. They can't even get a knockdown let alone a knockout. It's disgraceful.

    I didn't realize how bad Stivenre sucked. All Stiverne can do is counter punch. All Wilder can do is punch. It was a ****e fight they both suck. A disgrace that was a title fight. One of 30 other title belts.

    Decent first three rounds and solid sixth. But outside of that it was a sparring session.

    As sad as it sounds. It was the most exciting heavyweight title fight in years.

    Frustrated that your last troll thread you created like 20 minutes ago didn't take off?

    Hey I picked Stiverne to win too but I was dead wrong... WildStyle scored 5 rounds to Stiverne.

    I think his agenda is so obvious we can cut it with a knife.

    It was ok. Pulev looked very unskilled, and did his best work on the inside. Punching the back of Wlad's head, as Wlad did his usual octopus clinch.

    Wtf was Stiverne's plan? I think Bermane expected Wilder to come to him and try and bomb him out, and he was gonna try to counter punch. When that didn't happen there was no plan B. There was nothing else. Stiverne was so limited and crude that it was embarressing.

    Don't cut off the ring. Follow Wilder around. Don't close the distance. Don't let your hands go. His boxing skills was exposed as trash. He can counter punch and has a chin. But as far as skills, they are pretty terrible.

    It was horrible fight for most part. I expect better when Ishida fight rematch with Kyotaro. That a title fight, not world but still belt.
