    Fury fighting Kiltschko.
    Joshua vs Whyte- 2 Knockout Kings of the U.K.
    Teper dropping Price.

    We gotta step it up in the US.
    Wilder is the WBC Champion and he is fighting...???
    Haymon , who I idolize for his business acumen, has legends coming out of retirement to get brutalized.
    Top Rank has no one above 147.

    I'm embarrassed :patsch

    It'll be worse once Irish Fury knocks out proud American Wlad, the greatest HW since the raging Canuck Lewis.

    You have to remember Wilder is still in his "learning phase" so he still has to be managed fairly safety.

    In another 30 odd fights he will take off the training wheels and fight a 1st tier fighter..

    This is nothing new. US heavyweight scene has been the butt of all jokes for years now.

    The American scene is very bad at heavyweight. The amateur system is broken.

    That is the source of it. Plus the big guys wanna be in the NFL. You have to start roiding early for the NFL ,like at 16-17 years old.
