When he beat Stiverne, I saw a lot of salt and bitterness. Perhaps people were ****ed at losing money from betting, or perhaps people had more sinister intentions. Would people not support Wilder if he turns out to be as good as he says he is?
I've been rooting for him since he won the bronze medal (his backstory is great) but his pro career has, objectively, been a joke.
Well beltholders that try to eat with the belt when there is a clear legitimate champion in the division are always annoying. It's just fact. It's not his fault but it's always irritating. Plus that Bomb Squad **** is ugh.
I'm not a Wilder fan, not a hater either, but I don't really see a reason to hate the man. He's humble in the ring and respectful and he's an exciting fighter. His opposition is annoying and keeping the belt hostage is too but I wouldn't pin all of the blame on him. People seem to want him to fail and it's strange.
You clearly must be a wilder fanboi to speak like that, because everybody that follows boxing knows he's anything but humble and respectful. In fact, he acts like an unrespectful re**** most of the times. See his gay ass videos, his verbal war with Mike Tyson, his beating of the hooker in Vegas, his calling out people left and right and never fighting anybody, his steroid talks, and whatever else. "Huble and respectful", indeed
Mike Tyson has beaten half a dozen hookers, ****d a woman and beaten old ladies. He doesn't deserve respect. Wilder was criticizing the fact that Mike bit someone's ear, which is a savage thing to do.
I actually don't even like him, which is I don't know or forget these things. I don't follow him outside of boxing. I don't like his style and I'm not a fan.
I was rooting for him vs Stiverne. His knockout spree was entertaining to watch and it was difficult to not like him. But since then he picked completely ridiculous opponents to the point keeping the belt hostage which made it impossible to like or root him for anymore.
It depends on how he does in those fights and how he looks. So far he has looked somewhat limited against very mediocre competition.
Wilder is garbage and talks a lot of **** for someone who fights like ****. KTFO by a featherfisted LHW in the AMS Knocked down by Dustin Nichols Knocked down by Harold Scoiners Stunned badly by a Firtha jab Had a friend take a dive for him Could not beat Stiverne as impressively as Demetrice King Picked a coward's defense in Molina Struggeld with Molina Picked a second cowardly defense in Duahupas All that we know about Wilder is that he is marginally better than Nichols, Scoiners, Firtha and Molina, and not as good as prime Demetrice King. And yet he talks mad e**** about real legends like Tyson and Wlad, and gets caught beating up a hooker in Begas who is ironically his best opponent to date. It is time for the fans to demand an end to this ****. If he is not ready to unify agaisnt Wlad, then take on Povetkin. If he is not ready for Povetkin, then take on someone with some credibility like Thompson, Takam, or evern Teper. If he can't do that, then he has NO business claiming to be a world champ and will get nothing but hate from me until he grows a pair. In my lifetime I have seen the destuction of this great sport by corruption like this, and I am sick of it. As for "something more sinister," **** off. Seriously.
