    I was using the range of the weapons used as the analogy...don't get so damned offended. It fits quite well. Wilder is tall and lanky, he'll be best served to keep fighters at the end of his fists and no closer. The British had cannons that shot farther than the Argentinian cannons....it fits perfect don't get your panties in a twist about it....would you rather I say he should fight like Moe Howard vs a midget and just hold the midgit at bay by pushing against his head letting the midgit swing wildly without hitting anything?

    New day and age. We soak it up. Shit networks dedicate complete shows to verbal jabs and pissing contests. You get hired and fired via computer now, why not fight and talk it up.
