WILDER VS POVETKIN was the biggest HW fight in 25 years and Deontay showed up in Russia. No stolen valor. Why do you all keep forgetting about that when you spout your vitriol that he doesnt go up against top level competition. He went to friggin mother Russia to fight Povetkin. Case Closed
Wilder is an entretaining fighter with a fun to watch style that unfortunately fights the weakest of the weak. He is by a mile the worst belt holder out of the current titlists p4p, and his "reign" resembles a sanitation effort more than a hw title run. Absolutely the worst opposition faced of any current champion, he is a testament to products being hammered down the line by unscrupulous promoters that prey on the gulible. He even has a statue dedicated to him - the absurdity of this fact is beyond my comprehension.
Going to Moscow, Russia to fight Povetkin the Mutilple Gold Medalist for Russia for the HW Championship of the world is not a big enough fight for the easily programmed. These easily programmed people should just stick their simpleton heads deep in the hot Saudi Arabian desert sand.
Actually I'm not even a big fan of Tyson per se, but Tyson was a much vaunted name for a reason, he dared to be great and he wrecked people. He dodged nothing. The thing about Wilder is, he could've been much bigger, but for some reason his "team" chose to put him on a route of mediocrity. As you said he came out with a medal, the last medal of all US boxing Olympians, that's a story in and of itself. Instead of capitalizing on that they fed him chum. All of the criticism Wilder gets is his own doing. I don't blame him for the Povetkin fight falling apart, but my God in 9 years as a pro, he has only fought one top 10 HW. That's not commendable, it's sad. Wilder is a fun guy to watch but he should do better. He really needs to
Wilder is our champion. United States of America Olympic Medal winner & HW Champion EINSTEIN stated the definition of insanity is to do the same thing and expect different results. Ya all have been dissin Deontay for 38 fights now. Keep dissin. You all need insane medication. But all the insane asylums are filled with the other easily programmed simpletons. Just watch what unfolds.
No No No Joshua vs Old Man Klitshcko 90,000 in London is the biggest event ever. USA vs RUSSIA with tensions at an all time high and both fighters not over the hill in Moscow with Putin and the Politburo in front row seats is nothing. Nothing I say. Just keep walking and look the other way simpletons. Repeat after me Wlder sucks Wilder sucks Wilder sucks ahhhh ya all feel good now huh ya you do cant hide it
Northpaw said it well. Additionally, Tyson was the youngest ever heavyweight champion and he looked sensational in the ring, too. Deontay on the other hand was getting outpointed by Gerald Washington, just to put things into perspective.
He was fighting povetkin because he had too, he was his mandatory and would have been stripped, ducked him twice and paid him step aside money, and he was going to Russia because it was more money to fight in Russia than the states because he can't sell out in his home town. Case now closed.
Listen mando or not Deontay showed up. What is your problem? Why dont you ever mention Povetkin getting caught for using illegal drugs to improve his chances vs Deontay and getting caught?
Hey there simpleton. The little kids game is down the street i think. This "midget" is a multiple European, World & Olympic Gold Medalist at the highest division. Oh ya, has a 31-1 Pro record along with a HW Title for 3 years. You dont get any bigger then that on this planet in the sport of Boxing. Do You understand? I am trying to keep it simple.
