    There’s no “old” foreman without a successful “young” foreman.

    Deontay Wilder is shot and should simply retire instead of continuing to take losses and embarrass himself. He was in good form until he decided to take 2Y off, essentially, fighting one round in 2Y. His comeback failed, in a very predictable manner, now he needs to move on from the sport. I don't think he is smart enough to be an effective commentator, either, he should just enjoy his wealth and his family.

    Having a WBC interim title fight when there is already an active WBC title holder just makes a total mockery of the sport.

    Not when there is an unified champion, especially a undisputed one. Usyk potentially has 4 mandatories looming at all times, which takes time to settle one by one. So the orgs put up interim belts to keep the rankings moving. WBO has waited for over 2 years to enforce their mandatory due to unification matches and other mandatory obligations.

    I dont think this context adds a lot of validity.

    - People that hate Wilder because he said he wants a body on his record arent saying 'and because he beat up a mascot' ect. Its always pretty clearly been the issue that he stated that.

    I feel like this is clear moving of goalposts to start trying to add other things into the mix when its pointed out how hypocritical it is to hate Wilder for that particular incident.

    - The internet troll boxing match being held against Wilder as some sort of significant indictment against his character seems rather ridiculous. The "troll" threatened Wilders special needs daughter, continously harassed and threatened Wilder, so they set up a mutual fight with boxing gloves which the troll left on his own accord within a couple minutes.
    Mild to say the least.

    - The mascot... if the troll event was poor criticism then this is even worse. He was on a show in which he was told and urged to give the mascott a punch, and he did. If anything this was poor judgement in the moment but hardly an indictment on his character or of malicious and hateful character.

    After that we have a hooker incident and a persons baseless personal opinion on his opponent selection.


    Do we really need to comb through tge personal lives of Tyson, Canelo, Foreman, Gatti, ect to list all of their damning actions that show the Wilder hate for the hypocrisy it is?

    Lastly, again I dont buy this switch up.
    Basically what happene is people hate on Wilder for the catching a body talk, get shown to be hypocrites about it and then switch it to well he also did this n this. Those werent then point.

    Point is putting Wilder in some sort of boxing hell for his comments while the same peoples favorites are Mike Tyson, Foreman, and PED cheats, are blatent hypocritics.

    Bravo!

    the irony is when they state it’s other things around wilders personality (albeit very explainable things as you did above) that make the “body on a record” even worse is that it shows its selective to this person, wilder.

    Mike Tyson, who everybody seems to love and defend, raped a woman, threatened to eat people’s kids, threatened to **** men, bit someone’s ear off…yet he is fine to say he wants to kill somebody.

    Mike Tyson said those things over 20 years ago. He is clearly a different man.
    I don´t know what the response to his actions and words was like back then, but I would view him the same as I see Wilder today.

    Kabayel would absolutely maul him.

    The guy needs to walk away for his own good

    I wholly disagree. Mike acts more or less exactly the same and hasn't the cognitive capacity to change. Look at any interview where he's not just getting his ass kissed. Good ol Iron Mike.

    Deontay talks differently, fights differently, carries himself differently, but still the same guy huh?

    You just don't like Wilder bro.


    I prefer murderous Wilder to this cry baby you claim you did not notice he's become anyway, but if we're demonizing people for their lack of growth... Mike ain't even got the ability.

    I prefer the wilder who wanted a body on his record, than this softie.

    Mike has always been the same, when everyone kisses his bum it’s all good. I’ve always been a huge fan of Mike but people sure do get deluded when it comes to him.

    Back then Tyson was one of the most famous people in the world. Everyone loved him as the savage, but different love, not like this arse kissing now.

    Indeed, I do not like him.
    :lol: He was still saying "I want a body on my record" up to the Zhang fight. Nothing about him has changed, besides his physical abilities in the ring. **** him, I hope one of his future opponents hurts him real bad.

    I was disappointed when he was saying it here, his eyes weren’t saying it. I knew here he’s just trying very hard to be his old killer self, either for fans, for turki (who was asking for savage wilder), or for himself to try get into that mindset.
