Showtime: Deontay Wilder vs. Luis Ortiz & Andre Dirrel vs. José Uzcátegui II RBR.

No more so than Joshua or Fury though. Let’s see what Parker is made of.

One thing we do know about Wilder, Joshua and Fury is that they have resilience. They get back up and have powers of recovery.

 

Age.....

 

wilder was up on the cards somehow

 

It was an excellent heavyweight fight, no doubt the best since last summer.

But the fact Wilder can get outboxed by a much smaller, older and heavier man is very very worrying.

 

Joshua is a better boxer, there's no doubt about that. I think he'll do a lot of damage to Wilder, but Wilder always has that wild power, he may get lucky and land something huge. It'll be exciting either way.

 

An absolute classic heavyweight title fight.

 

Are you drunk to compare both fights? Right now we saw only power and heart and horrible skills. Joshua and Klitschko... Damn that was sweet to watch , pure boxing at it's finest. That's why it was the fight of the year for most of the people.

 

Wilder now needs to fight Dillian Whyte before AJ.

 

As a boxer he's a total joke. All but barely more than two rounds he looked horrible. He could well be embarrassed against Joshua, Fury, etc. But it's also now not a sure thing. All of us ragging on him said he was going to get KTFO or quit with the first hard punch Ortiz hit him with. He didn't. He has a good enough chin and he's as tough as anyone. I don't want to have to defend him, this heavyweight era is awful, but let's give credit where credit's due.

 

Probably Wilder's hater tried to climb to the ring

This.

Wilder was badly hurt, but remember that Ortiz has power and KTFO'd Jennings in 7 right after Jennings went distance vs Wlad

 

Joshua gasses hard mid rounds. Wilder would never let him off the hook like WK did. I can’t see Joshua knocking Wilder out, Wilder is good at evading punches and has such insane power that he would punch through Joshua’s guard.

 

He amazingly was behind on all 3 cards, I thought Ortiz won at least 6 rounds.......

 

Yep. Joshua is slow and gasses. I don't see it as a given him beating Wilder at all.

 

A bit far, because not a lot happened due to Wilder running and Ortiz being too short to land clean.

Good, but a level below last summer imho.

 

Darn tooting.

I really want to say ****ing A right. But bypassing the filters is against the rules.

But yeah.... Even at 214 against a heavy hitter, he took massive shots and never stopped fighting back.
Heart and power. Speed and chin.
2 things NOBODY BUT THE TROLLS even considered.

He fought stupid, as we've seen so many times, but he won the fight in wearing his heart on his sleeve and giving Ortiz every chance to crack the glass. That glass is now on par with the best in the division.
