Which other Brit heavies down the years could have finished Wilder in 7 rounds or even less?

Fury has 2 good wins and suddenly he is a monster all time great.You do talk a lot of bollocks!

 

Where you there?

 

Absolutely, John. I remember our own Graham Houston saying of him 'he doesn't just know the ropes, he wove them', albeit the late 30s version who was going up against Jorge Luis Gonzalez.

That would be a bit much of the version Frank fought but even then he was defensively savvy with a good jab and overhand right, decent uppercut. He was a Philly boy - strike one for Tim right there - who had been Ali's sparring partner in his teens/early 20s and given Larry Holmes hell when Larry was quite near his prime and Tim was a bit green. Tim could box allright. The Bonecrusher rematch notwithstanding, Tim showed all the fundamentals. Wilder is a crude blaster imo, not a technician. He's a very effective blaster - so long as his gear to wear into the ring isn't too heavy - but I see little evidence of technical skills. When Fury backed him up, he didn't seem able to fight back. Not saying Tim beats him but it would be Deontay's power rather than skill that would see him through.

 

No, trash is this post!

 

How do you equate Frank being 'trash' while agreeing that he should have been ahead on the cards vs an excellent fighter in Witherspoon?Frank had his limitations but 'trash' is harsh to say the least.

 

Bruno was never a great fighter ,but he was an honest one ,who always did his best.
Lewis was a very good fighter from the start who became a great one.
Wilder has never been better than a good fighter, and with over 40 fights on his clock and at 34 years old he ain't gonna get any better!

 

Markautisticant needs booting permanently.

All he does is **** people off with his useless ****ing threads, day after day.
Does not have a ****ing clue about anything boxing related and brings nothing to this forum.

Do us all a favour Mark and disappear.
