    Yeah you have some gems in Inoue, Usyk and Lomachenko but the overall talent is lacking so much that the art of boxing in itself is dying. You have this clown Wilder who is one of the worst boxers ever and that has been protected and groomed to be undisputed champion will most likely fight Joshua and he'll just have a low iq fight plan and stay at long range and will allow Wilder to get full leverage and land the same punch he did tonight against Breazeale. Meanwhile you have the general public eating this knockout up thinking that Wilder is so good when he shouldn't even be holding the WBC belt, imagine having this piece of garbage as the representative of boxing.

    Seriously, this guy can't end up being undisputed that would be just sad, boxing would have one of the worst boxers ever to become undisputed heavyweight champion and is a horrible person who was again manipulating the public with his smiles after the fight.


    Where is that once in a generation talent that will come in and destroy this clown and also Fury and Joshua?

    Wilder isn't the only lack of talent in the heavyweight division, all of them are mediocre.

    Loma
    Crawford
    Inoue
    Usyk
    Canelo
    Spence

    Ect...


    The P4P list is stacked with awesome operators of the sweet science.

    And the actual number one heavyweight, Joshua, isnt half as bad as people try n make out.

    The notion that boxing as a whole is bad right now because the heavyweight division isnt very good just kinda sounds like something a general sports fan would say.

    Boxing is doing fine.

    You created this thread because you're upset Wilder knocked out Breazeale in 1 round. How come?

    Gotta agree with Dirty Dan on this one.. Seem like you said a whole lot just to say you hate Wilder..
    I really hate AJ vs Wilder thing is becoming the latest Fl0m0 vs P@ct@rd fiasco because I believe AJ Wilder would be an exciting fight and very well worth the money.. While I always knew Floyd would bore out the fight with PAC to a UD.. Mets just celebrate that HW boxing is exctiting right now

    Valuev is mediocre. Mesi is mediocre. Barrett is mediocre. Breaz is mediocre.

    Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury are not mediocre. Thats showing a pretty big lapse in perspective.

    Because you have fighters that continue to allow themselves to get hit by this guy clean, it shouldn't happen.

    No boxing is not doing fine, I listed the only great fighters in boxing in my original post. There is a lack of skill and intelligence.

    This is just hipsterdom.

    You've decided only one style of fighting is valid and anything else is beneath contempt and below consideration.

    Its not. If you compare the major divisions (welter, middle, light heavy and heavy) of today with... pick a year in the last 10 years, the disparity in class is not as large as youre trying to make it seem.
