He probably had close to 80 fights at that point, to Taylor who had only 25 fights. Lockridge was past his best at that point and deep into drugs....
I agree that he obviously had good wins leading up to that fight. Not looking at boxrec, he probably had 80 or so fights coming in to his fight...
Well, your right about Wilder not tasting the leather of heavier handed puncher like Stiverne. We shall see whose left standing at the end. I just...
Taylor was a gold medalist of maybe the best class of USA fighters. So the pedigree was in Taylor's favor. He was undefeated, as was Chavez....
Wilder is not really known for his defense, seeing that he basically comes in and wings his shots. He may have power, but if throw's wide and...
My money is Stiverne as well. He ate some pretty big punches from Arreola, and didn't seem to get too shaken up. Wilder on the other hand, is...
Corrie Sanders has been overrated since exposing Wlad's glass chin to the boxing world back in 03. Before that he was an on again, off again...
I would say Tyson would fall under that category. After coming out of prison in 95, he lost alot of what made him great before jail. The reflexes,...
Klitschko fan's always do this. Sanders was a big puncher that could counter punch, no doubt. Name one A or B fighter he beat other than Wlad? You...

Ike was fight fans dream. Ibeabuchi had the rare ability to throw with power, and still not find himself depleted of energy in the later rounds. I...
I get your point. I too feel boxing has lost it's allure over the years. Then again, I'm not a young kid anymore. I grew up watching the likes of...
Tye Fields was a joke. I loved when Barret ended that hype job in it's tracks. Wilder reminds me a little of Michael Grant when he first started....
Wilder is overrated, that much is clear. I think once we see him against B level opposition, his star will fall quickly. I would love to see him...
He cut off the ring against a stationary target in stevens. Once Curtis felt his power, he covered up in high guard and turned into a plodding...
