    Well no ****, Tyson learned later that it was inappropriate. What is appropriate or not is a social construct. You teach your kids waht is acceptable. When they **** up, you sit them down and teach, not hold a ****ing gun to their head. Inappropriate... lol wtf is holding a gun to a 15yr olds head? More or less appropriate than a 15yr old making out with a 11 yr old?

    If you want to go down the moral relativism route then why ***** about what Atlas did?

    WTF are you on? You're the one babbling about what is appropriate. Comparing a 15yr old to a grown man. Totally ignoring Atlas's crying over his niece whilst holding a gun to a 15yr olds head. Atlas should be in jail for that, and Tyson would have gotten in no trouble with the law.

    Prime Donald was quite good. The Donald Vitali fought was as shot as the Rahman that Povetkin fought.

    He still won by knock out in that fight which is pathetic for spizka. Wilder has come a long way, he just needs a trainer to tell him to stop the windmill punches and leaping in. Stick to the jab and right hand which has been getting better.

    Holy **** you're beyond ******ed. Rahman wasn't even a high level journeyman at that point, Donald went on to beat a badly faded but still game Holyfield, drew with a prime Austin and lost a close MD decision to Valuev.

    Vitaly's wins over Donald and Purrity are underrated IMHO.

    Donald lost big to a journeyman TWO years before he fought Vitali. He got a draw only cos he was expected to win.

    Larry's best attributes in his prime was his movement. That was totally gone when he fought Vitali. You obviously never watched prime Donald.
    Bowe doesn't even get credit for beating prime undefeated Donald , but Vitali does for beating a woeful shot version. ??? lol. GTFOH

    You're a moron - Rahman was a SHELL of himself and nowhere near being a top 100 HW, Donald at the very least a fringe contender.

    Donald was just stood there taking shots. He had nothing left. Briggs is a fringe contender RIGHT NOW. wtf does that mean???
    When will you learn that you can't compete with me.

    I've made a fool out of you time and time again. No one's saying Donald was prime against Vitali, but to say he was as shot as Rahman against Povetkin is flat out wrong. You're a complete moron.

    What's naturally athletic about him? He can't even throw a punch without falling over his own feet.

    Wilder's mistakes are so embarrassing but what's even more embarrassing is how awesome he thinks he is. Dude clearly thinks he's king sh!t with all the showboating he does, but the only reason he's been able to get away with any of his nonsense is due to the woefully low level of competition he's thus far been privileged to face. It'll be such a rude wakeup call when he finally gets beaten, and probably not even by someone that good.

    People claim he's athletic but the only athletic traits he displays are a bit of speed and explosiveness. His sense of balance is atrocious and his sense of distance barely any better. He has no ability to take steam off his punches; it's all full pelt, swing for the fences, and aside from his one two his combinations lack any fluidity whatsoever. His footwork is garbage, and his defence consists of jumping straight back with his hands in the air. He's had years to iron out these flaws and he's either too stupid/arrogant to change them or doesn't have the physical ability to change them.

    I'm honestly impressed by how far he's been able to go considering what he's got to work with. A magnificent example of careful management and an impressive PR machine.
