    It is the general consensus of opinion that Scott took a dive. Some have even demonstrated social media posts where Scott seems to be admitting as much.

    I don't go quite that far. Judging by his absurdly long periods of inactivity, his similarly questionable fight against Chisora, and the fact that he obviously did not have to go down and obviously could have gotten up, I think he is just a lazy **** who doesn't really like his chosen sport. He knew that he was hand picked because he has no power what-so-ever to keep Wilder honest, and decided that he was not going to spend all night avoiding bombs...you know...like he was paid to do...to win a fight that would only lead to more tough fights that he doesn't want.

    In any event, Scott was coming off a stoppage loss from oft-beaten Chisora, so I am not sure what it was supposed to prove. Whatever lingering credibility Scott got from the Glazkov win/draw is now completely negated since Glazkov has similarly struggled against Derrik Rossi.

    The funniest part is you left out the fact that he fights for a sick daughter.

    He should be so easy to market it isn't even funny.

    Completely agree

    Stiverne would need someone to keep him still to rearrange his face. there's no way he's gonna do that. Because the first serious puncher he'll land will have Wildest spinning around like a spinning top! You need an opponent with a good chin to rearrange his face.

    ATG Title Belt on the line that he got from Charlie Zelenoff. Charlie was easily one of Wilders greatest opponents that he ever fought in his pro career. Wilder's resume is a total joke. It looks like mostly 90 % like Butterbean or Peter Mccnealy opponents.

    Wilder loses to the first top 10 ranked person he faces.

    I'm just picturing Del Boy in the ring with him for a few rounds.

    He's America's David Price.

    Price is a better boxer than Wilder.
