Why are some people actually celebrating the HW undisputed fight potentially being off?

    Str8 up Wilder Fans trolling.

    Not fans of the sport but of an individual fighter ... nothing more nothing less.

    Have you been to London lately? Looks pretty much like Mecca..call to prayer sounding over Regents Park, women covered head to toe shopping at Harrods, Saudi princes owning football teams...may as well have the fight in SA.

    How does this work with Sky Sports Boxing?

    AJ has one fight left on his Sky deal right? Hearn is doing the off and not resigning with Sky?


    Adam Smith on suicide watch tonight o_O

    Well of course I've seen London, I live in London.


    I'm surprised the women you saw who were covered from head to toe were not being stabbed to death at the time by a group of toddlers :dunno

    If Wilder avoids the mistake of coming in too heavy which slows his right hand like last time and is able to throw the right hand with at least the same velocity as he did against Dominic Brezeale, he could very well KO Fury. He'd need to be lighter than 220lbs.

    It's because this board is not about being a fan of boxing, it's being a fan of boxers. That Wilder fans are happy needs no explanation, except that their joy probably will be short lived in either case, but it seems that many Fury fans aren't too unhappy either. Many of them really haven't seemed to enjoy the thought of a fight with AJ actually happening, so this is a better outcome for them.

    I think Fury will stop him again, but I do agree on Wilder's weight. He was rigid looking at 230. He thought he needed weight, but what he needs is speed and agility. I think 212 may be too light, but 215-222 would be about right.

    Most boxing fans are wankers who get off to the politics rather than who is fighting on Saturday.

    I’m in disbelieve here. Why do you, as a boxing fan, want to see Fury-Wilder III happen?

    Yeah, the first two fights were great. Fury-Wilder I was a classic Boxer v. Puncher fight, with Fury winning most rounds while Wilder equalised with his power.

    But the second was a destruction job. Fury mauled Wilder for the first two rounds, and went on to put a real hurting on him for the next five. It was conclusive.

    Until Wilder show us something else, the rivalry with Fury is done. Why not wan’t Fury-Joshua for ALL four belts, something fresh?

    Anybody who is a Tyson Fury fan isn't a boxing fan to began with. They are just Brits who like Tyson Fury because he is British. No real boxing fan wants to see a grown man act like a fool like Tyson Fury does. No grown man who is a legit boxing fan wants to see a heavyweight get in the ring and run like Tyson Fury does.

    IF you think the first two Tyson Fury vs Wilder fights were great then either you are British (So I feel sorry for you) or you are 14 years old. Tyson Fury isn't the classic boxer. He is a guy who gets in the ring and runs. Deontay Wilder's punching power is overrated and he has yet to knock out a world class fighter.

    Tyson Fury would probably run against Joshua as well, the main difference is he would probably still be knocked out by Joshua.

    I didn't say I'd rather see this happen, I just said I thought it was funny. AJ fans have no sense of humour.


    Wilder had a contract that has been considered legit, so it is what it is, no need for everybody to get that upset.

    Fury fights Wilder in August/Sept, AJ fights Usyk in August/Sept and the winners fight for all the titles in December.

    It could be any two of those 4 in a huge fight a few months later, everybody needs to chill.


    Also, On the plus side we won't have an inactive Fury fighting AJ, I think that's what's bothering a lot of AJ fans, they wanted an inactive Fury in the ring and they certainly don't want AJ anywhere near Wilder, AJ hasn't got the whiskers to cope with that kind of power.
