    Yeah, II wouldn't have been given a chance. A Tua/II rematch never went down, which was odd. What a monster of a fight that was.

    I remember watching it at the time never seeing Ibeabuchi before and thinking this was gonna just be another KO victim for Tua on the road to the divisions champions at the time. Wow was I wrong.

    I thought Tua won? I'll have to rewatch, it's been awhile.

    I remember it being a war and close, I mean it was bombs away for 12 rounds.

    Wilder and Joshua will be one of the biggest HW fights of the last decade and it will be between 2 fighters who cannot box. lol

    rules in boxing are like traveling in basketball, they don't apply to the favored ones.

    Agree with you on all of that.

    the most obvious by far is Malik Scott who wasn’t even grazed by Wilder let alone hit. How this wasn’t investigated is beyond me as that is some blatant illegal ****

    good thing they aren't giving guys like Dychko any opportunities.

    to me it looked and still looks like a dive and the fact that helenius took so long to get up makes it even more suspicious .

    based on what ? He was rocked a few times and then stopped by featherfisted fury.

    The Ordinary Harrison finish by Wilder is my Happy Place, I literally pee myself watching how many misses Wilder throws with Ordinary on the deck in the corner
