I like to ask people what if Mayweather would have been awarded a draw after out boxing his opponent but was knocked down twice and almost put to sleep the second time, would you still say that Mayweather deserved the draw or won? I will never get an honest answer because I know it would be a bitchfest if that happened.
This isn't street fighting, it's boxing. So for 2 KD's and a draw means Wilder won 5 rounds (hahaha) on 2 or more of the judges cards. WTF has Mayweather got to do with it? But I do remember, a while ago on these forums, Hopkins outboxed Pascal and got put down twice. The result was a draw yet everyone knew Hopkins won.
Wilder is feared cos he beat the best. Whyte Chisora Breazeale Povetkin Miller Parker Pulev Wait a second no he hasant AJ now faces Miller next why did Wilder never face Miller?
So feared Fury literally 6 months after returning from being close to 400lbs, depressed and snorting coke, took the fight in Wilder's back yard for the short end of the purse. So feared Joshua keeps sending him offers for record paydays and in Wilder's own words is begging to fight him. So Feared Joshua's left overs in Breazeale is calling him out and trying to get him to finally fight his 2nd mandatory defence in over 4 years as a champion. So feared Dillian Whyte has offered him huge pay days to fight him only to be told to fight Luis Ortiz first. So feared an ancient Luis Ortiz on blood pressure meds took the fight for peanuts when he could of fought Joshua for 10 times as much. Only thing Tyson Fury fears from Wilder is being robbed by the judges again.
A tired Tyson Fury, having fought 12 rounds & after a 3 year lay off filled with alcohol, drugs, junk food & depression took Wilders (ahem) right hand power followed by a solid left hook & got up to finish the round in dominant style. The first knock down, which you laughably describe as “getting put down hard” was nothing more than a cuff around the back of the ear and had far more to do with Fury getting his feet caught under himself. Many argued with some merit that it shouldn’t have counted as a knockdown at all! Luis Ortiz, at 42 years old who had fought just once in almost 3 years, was on medication for high blood pressure and who was advised not to fight by worried Doctors after they examined him in his dressing room immediately before the fight, took many many full blooded shots from Wilder before succumbing to age and illness. Most of Wilders opponents take multiple heavy shots but don’t fall in fact Wilder very rarely puts anyone to sleep ‘AT ALL’ and many opponents get up from his mythical power and carry on fighting. Wilder has cherry picked his last 2 opponents thinking they were gone and would be easily beaten but he needed the Referees intervention to survive Ortiz and was gifted, I SAY GIFTED!!! a draw against Fury by 2 judges who must have been wearing masks, stripy jumpers while carrying cash in bags with SWAG written on them. Wilder hits hard but his power is vastly overrated
Would he be getting called out by Kownacki and Brezeale if he was the most feared man in the division? Would he have been called out by a fat out of shape Tyson Fury coming off a three year lay off if he was the most feared man in the division? Would he be getting called out by Dillian Whyte if he was the most feared man in the division? Remember when Mike Tyson was the most feared man in the division; do you remember guys ranked #2 through #10 and beyond calling him out every chance they got? Hell no. The difference is that Wilder isn't really feared at all (just look at all the cab drivers he's shared the ring with) and is in-fact being protected from the very same contenders who are calling him out, whereas legit scary guys like Mike Tyson who actually were feared during their day and rarely ever called out were protected from no-one, potential opponents were instead protected from them.
There isn't anyone these days who's particularly feared. Guys like Ortiz are avoided, but that's more due to their poor risk/reward ratio, but as for fighters actually putting the fear of God into their opponents, nah, not really.
Wilder is very dangerous fighter .Hard hitting and a very ruthless attitude .I get the feeling wilder wouldn't worry if he killed an opponent.not playing with a full deck !!!
