    True. Both Mc and Oscar look like middle-aged alcoholics now (unfortunately)

    The thing is these last 2 fights it’s all well and good if they was slowly building him back up refining him etc.

    Helenius hasn't been world class since 2011.

    :eek::eek::eek:
    Wilder will come out shifting gears and AJ will freeze.
    Today was easy money on the under and it was set at 5 1/2 rounds but with Wilder it’s FREE money no matter what the under is come fight night:boxing1:boxing1:boxing1

    Haye making good points there about AJ can't just beat Wilder cautious like that.
    I know AJ's team will try to get Chisora next.
    If that Wilder fight ever happens, they need full trash talk presses and a round table face to face. Them trying to match wits and out cringe each other would be super entertaining.

    Sadly, mate. He really could have been something special.

    But, with the fight game, if it's not at your absolute core and being...it's not going to be consistent ..

    Boxing's a very tough game. The higher the level, the tougher you have to be.


    That's why I like Del Chisora .. limited to the extreme, I know, but **** me, was he honest...

    Just make the Wilder fight already. Enough of Joshua fighting B level and shot fighters. He's made a career of beating those types. Let's see how he does against Wilder. They deserve each other.

    AJ petrified to let his hands go. Wilder ends him within 3 rounds unfortunately.
    Lost the fire in his belly. Got zero heart. Drained of all confidence. Such a shame.

    That punch knocked out Helenius and will send Wilder to the shadow realms.
