Why would you do this?

To give the boring fence sitting answer I think this is a way tougher fight for both guys than their fans believe.
I'm not a fan of Wilder, I just feel like there's gotta be more interesting stuff going on in boxing than the 37th "Wilder bad" thread. It's like...
There's gotta be something more interesting to talk about right? Are you guys not getting tired of the same 5 jokes? [MEDIA]
