    Was it a farce? No. Did Stiverne have any business being in there tonight? I don't see why now, he hasn't fought in 2 years, and its not like he's been soaking up a ton of abuse or anything, so I see no reason why he shouldn't have been in there. Therefore, the thread as usual with baconmaker is the farce.

    KOing this version of Stiverne was not impressive. It was expected.

    Why the help are you fools tuning in to watch it when you know it's a farce?

    They'll be more mismatches like this if the viewers keep stacking up.

    How can any fighter have 38 fights and not have a single name on his resume.

    Wilder is a joke. He needs to fight someone decent for once.

    There are no recognizable names in the division except for Joshua, Povetkin, and Arreola. He's calling out the first, was gonna go to Russia to fight the second until he got caught doping, and already beat the third. So there's nothing he can do, more than what he's doing right now.

    Well, he literally did nothing. A few speculative punches and then had the rug pulled from beneath his feet in a big way. Wilder never gave him a chance. Huge gulf between both fighters tonight.

    No he wasn't. Stiverne is garbage and shouldn't have been the mandatory. He took step aside for Ortiz - In his prior fight(which was 2 years ago) he was dropped and barely managed to beat Rossy. Yeah - this fight and the WBC are an absolute disgrace. This joke fight should not have been sanctioned.

    Stiverne was pathetic and was there only for the payday. Obviously he half-arsed trained for this fight and got what he deserved. Easy Christmas shopping money for Wilder and partners in crime messers King and WBC.

    Is that supposed to hurt my feelings or something? I couldn't care less. Who said Takam and Stiverne were on the same level? Not I.

    Can anyone explain why Wilder called AJ out on PED’s? Sure Joshua is big, but he hasnt failed a test has he? Is this Wilder shooting his mouth off (as he does), or is it defemation?

    It was a farce of a fight, lets not rip into Wilder for this though, its the WBC. There must be 20 Boxers in the WBC rankings who have earned that shot more than Stiverne and they would all be better than this current Stiverne.

    dont get angry.

    You were suggesting that the 2 fights were level in terms of opponent quality.

    No stupid, I didn't. I said I would have preferred the Ortiz match, but that didn't happen but it is what it is, and that Stiverne was the best Wilder could get and Takam was the best Joshua could get on short notice. Nothing more, nothing less. Now if you'd have read that a little more thoroughly, then asked me who I think would win out of the two, I would without hesitation pick Takam.
