    Nobody cares about the golden gloves. Could go months on any forum before any boxing fan even mentions them. Only when you are cornered trying hard to find anything to hang your hat on in a losing argument. You live in a fantasy land that makes believe a golden glove is anything comparable to a bronze medal. You're looking very silly here.

    Dude... your boy was LUCKY to get that bronze. And I didn't say "a golden glove" I said 15-20 of them. We were discussing accomplishments. You were trying your hardest to **** on Morrisons... I hit you with facts. Who has Wilder beat comparable to Foreman???

    lol Deontay's time with that strap is VERY, VERY limited once Fury comes back, Wlad gets the IBF back and Povetkin gets cleared :D The guy can't cherry pick forever

    He took the punch just fine. Wasn't phased at all and he destroyed that guy.

    The shell of Carl Williams not only cought Morrison plenty , but he floored him twice in one round and the Truth wasn't even a big hitter. Morrison also was dropped by Purrity , stopped in one round by Bennt and dropped by a jab thrown by Lewis. Not to mention a life and death struggle with Joe Hipp.

    One flush right and from Wilder is more than capable of sending Morrison into dream land.

    We must have a bunch of young people on here that aren't even aware that Morrison held his own in a much tougher Heavyweight era than we have today. Who is Joshua's best win? Martin or Breazealle? LOL.

    Morrison accomplished more as a pro - easily... Wilder's success is the product of careful matchmaking and coming along at the right time. Again with the 'facts' line the FACT that you feel the overwhelming urge to refer to everything you say as 'fact' ad nauisum just goes to show insecure you are. I don't think you know what a 'fact' actually is. Yes it's a fact that Wilder won an Olympic bronze medal, yes he has a world title. But if you even bothered to glance beneath the surface and weren't so one-track minded then you'd understand that there's nothing impressive about Wilders Bronze medal win. I already outlined that Wilder never earned his shot at the world title, the eliminator was FARCICAL and any fan with integrity would question it. Since winning the belt he's faced some of the worst competition of any major belt holder in the sport, yet you sit and look the other way while questioning the opponents of other fighters. What a joke. Morrison had the guts to step in with good fighters even if he came up short, he wasn't coddled like Wilder. His triumph over Foreman far exceeds any individual win on Wilders resume.

    When quoting me, quote me exactly. I said "the golden gloves". Do you even read posts are just too full of nationalistic fire open your eyes? You didn't hit me with facts. You believing an old Foreman for a non legitimate belt is better than Stiverne is just your opinion. Wilder is the only one of these two who have won a recognized championship. That's just a fact you will have to deal with and even a 1000 golden gloves do not compare. The rest of your nonsense is just opinion and trolling. Tell Fury to stop using his drug use (both roids and cocaine) and mental illness issues as excuses and get back in the ring first (clean). He's over 300 pounds as stated by himself. Wilder had to reach out and make sure the big oaf doesn't kill himself because that's a payday potentially going down the drain.

    Morrison has a far more extensive amateur background than Wilder.. He lost a split decision to Mercer in the qualifiers for the Olympics that Mercer went on to win gold in. Wilder was only selected to represent because the US amateur scene(especially for heavies) were utter **** at the time, then he faced **** poor competition in the Olympics before getting schooled by Russo. You're arguing semantics. The Bronze medal means **** all anyways, especially considering we're talking about how they match ups as pros. The only one looking silly here is you buddy.

    That's a lot of words to deflect from the facts I am telling you. Was Morrison a hype job or not? If you can't admit he's a hype then you're just another troll. Every time he stepped up he got destroyed.

    I'm not debating the fact that Morrison was a glass cannon with vulnerabilities of his own and was capable of beating upset by guys who weren't exactly world beaters. He still held is own and proved himself against far better fighters than Wilder. Blackclouds on the other hand think's that Morrison wouldn't have a chance in hell and that Wilder is some ultra-polished fighter without any major flaws. Which couldn't be further from the truth... The guy is very clearly mechanically flawed - drops his hands and leaves his his chin up in the air, awful balance and poor coordination, bad punching technique that has lead to repeated injuries and has in some cases lead to him losing his balance and falling to the canvas. He just hasn't been in anyone live enough to take full advantages of these glaring holes in his game.

    "You live in a fantasy world where you make pretend that winning A GOLD GLOVE is anything comparable to a bronze medal." Sound familiar?

    And you believing a sick stiverne is a better win than George Foreman is JUST your opinion.

    Funny you mention Deontay "reaching out" to Fury because it's a payday going down the drain if he kills himself. Classy!!! And you point the finger for "Nationalistic Fire" yet post something like that??! Lmao

    Oh and about that lawyer of Wilders saying that 110lb prostitute he busted up "Tried to steal something" below is a video of Wilders habits when dealing with females in the bedroom ;) Go to 14:00...

    Yeah he clearly rode the fact he was in the Rocky 5 and a white guy from middle america. Your point? He still took more risks and beat better competition than Wilder in a more competitive era.

    Stiverne the guy who struggled with the bloated corpse of Ray Austin, was knocked down and nearly lost a decision to Rossy is CLEARLY a better fighter than 90s Foreman man. How could you be so blind? :lol:
