    Let's be for real, guys like Briggs, Broner, Fury and Wilder would be locked up in a mental hospital in the 50's :lol:

    Well WWE is what always sells.

    is it staged ? Well im sure events like briggs knocking klitchko in the water and getting water poured on his head in a bar himself in retaliation wasn't even though no fight was made.

    Along with Joshua going after Miller....theres set ups but these are fighters not wrestlers ,put them in a space and the script goes out the window ...we saw that bc wilder the emotional midget he is couldn't follow it yesterday.

    Do you think Finkel on the floor was real and Wilder wasn't actually angry ? I do.

    Its a social media era fights got to attract a very short attention span generation..it is what it is real or not.

    The trash talking tradition in boxing started with Ali.
    Look where it landed him.

    I think its weird that an adult wants two other adults to act out some fake beef before they fight to get them interested in fake beef.

    Why do you care what the fighters do before the fight?

    How is the quality of the fight itself not the only thing that matters?

    Didn't Walcott call Rocky an amateur before the first one?
