You obviously never saw the Spilka fight. A Spilka who turned up in the best shape of his life and fought the best fight of his career. He moved more in a single round than Byrd moved in 4 rounds. He looked like a HW Manny Pacman. Byrd was slow and flat footed. You just don't get that do you?
People were happy with the Spilka fight considering the great shape he worked himself into. Many even tipped an upset. As soon as Wilder ended him , it all reverted back to how it as before he won the belt. Zero credit. Still a fraud. Still a joke. The only joke are the clowns who are still bashing the man.
byrd was decent as i said / and wilders wide swings would put him off balance and look silly at times / but byrd was not that fast of hand or foot /fought a lot with his hands down by his waist / and countered with his left. he would be reaching v wilder and something of wilders will land . byrd was always in the who needs him club /wilder will not look good but his handspeed /footspeed / length / will get him landing on byrd at somepoint.
Much like people hating on Byrds opposition while defending Wilders opposition of do nothing plodders? :rofl
Their calling Byrds opposition slow plodders who had no movement while defending Wilders opposition. These guys are delusional.
Regardless of tactics. ANYONE who isn't a brain dead Wilder fanboy can clearly see that Wlad has far better punching mechanics than Wilder. Wlad was also far more aggressive and clinched less back then he did under Steward. Ibeabuchi was also a more crisp puncher than Wilder.. More proven too despite his short lived career.
Is that what took Wilder so long to take out a shot to sh*t Arreola? Arreolas amazing footwork and his side to side movement must have befuddled Wilder. atsch Or how about the ONLY TOP 10 HW HE HAS FOUGHT STIVERNE? His iron chin only previously cracked by a journeyman was too cemented in granite to so the otherworldly power of Wilder could not put him out right? Dino its ok everyone knows your delusional and have no clue what your talking about. :hi:
Szpilka, Stiverne and Duhaupas are "OK" wins. Fairly solid if unexceptional fighters that should be on the lower end of any champions bread-and-butter defences. They're the equivalent of Wlad's Leapai's and Pianeta's. Byrd is a cut above these guys. He's fought and beaten better already.
