    Blizzyjuice. I want you to read up on something called "Confirmation bias" it's what you do whenever you're circle jerking with Dinovelvet or Uppercut_Artist.

    He's pretty much as shockingly mediocre as the rest of them. He's basically a football player who started boxing about 3-4 years ago. This is like Tyson giving Mark Gastineau a shot, or Wlad defending against Seth Mitchell!!

    And yet, because Wilder's chin is SO fragile, this guy might even take him out. Heck if Dustin Nichols and Harold Sconiers can put this fraud on the canvas, who knows? :lol:

    At least it wasn't Wawrzyk... 100/1 underdog, that's bad even by Wilders standards!

    True, but stepping up from D to C level "competition" is still nothing to crow about.

    What the ****

    How in the hell is Tyson Fury a disgrace? Going to Germany and defeating the Undisputed World Champion for the last 10 years. Wilders one title is as valuable as mine that I found in a box of cereal

    Washington is a late replacement and I doubt has had as much training time

    Hes a decent fight for any HW but it would be good for him to get full notice for a title fight

    He was in training for a fight on the same card, so it's not like he's going into this fight completely cold, either. He's likely had about as much preparation for a fight, all told as Brazeale had for Joshua.

    Washington was already training for a fight on the same card. Washington has had as much time to prepare for Wilder as Wilder has had for him.

    Technically Malik Scott is a better win than Washington could be. But it's not unreasonable to have doubts about the legitimacy of the Scott win.

    Washington has a very good shot at an upset here but then again he's never been in the ring with a fighter like Wilder. An early KO by either fighter is not out of the question imho.

    I'm betting that Wilder will be good enough to win this either by demonstrating better conditioning in the late rounds or via a landing a lucky punch on Washington.

    I think that if Washington wins this fight it will be by playing it safe like Fury did vrs. Klitschko....which means that unfortunately this fight could be a snoozer.
