    Wilder acted like such a moron at the end of that fight, was embarrassing for boxing, that kinda thump your chest, thug go wild BS is usually only seen in the UFC and even that at that level I have never seen anything so unprofessional. I can't wait to see this kid get KTFO. Also never seen anyone spam the 1-2 so repeatedly, like he can barely throw any other punch but a jab and cross! Just pathetic. Only reason he won is because of his height and reach, poor opponent couldn't get near him.

    Perez can actually move his head, throw a jab, and let his hands go. Work the body, cut off the ring, etc. It would be a good match up.

    Bermane slowly plodded around the ring with hands up, doing nothing for 12 rounds.

    He is a very different fighter once Stewart got ahold of him. I am by no means a Wlad fan but he is where Wilder wants to go in terms of stature, skills and knowledge. I don't know whether Wilder has the discipline and dedication Wlad has to get there.

    Stiverne isn't American, why do people keep assuming he is because he's black?

    Only one American in the ring last night and he dominated.

    Everyone knows Stiverne's background, Haitian born, lived in Canada, Las Vegas the last 12 years. That was not the point. The point is US heavyweight boxing has been in the doldrums for a long time and it is surprising a big, new star has not risen. People keep hyping, er, I mean hoping.
