How much of it was Wilder being better or Stiverne being older and fatter and even less motivated? Not saying Wilder couldn't do better in the rematch though his lack of technique and general rings smarts suggest it's unlikely. But I doubt we'll find out any time soon how Wilder does in the Fury rematch as it looks like Arum is doing whatever he can to delay it happening.
Dont be sad boxing fan, I can see you feel frustration, But now's the time for Uncle Bob's, Special Marination, See you may think you want to watch, The best fighting the best, But Uncle Bob has a different plan, So put those hopes to rest, He's going to have you wait a while, A year or so will do, Meanwhile you pay to watch some cans, Get fed to you know who, Bob Arum knows the wheres and whys, Of making boxing suck, And till he's had his pound of flesh, The big fights he will duck,
