Don't know about anyone else... but I'M excited about Wilder-Stiverne!

[TitoFan]

The fight's only a week away, and the excitement is building (I hope).
Both Stiverne and Wilder are talking trash..... so that's always a good sign.

Yes, I'm very interested to see this fight. I was just going on about it to a friend who has no interest in boxing. If Deontay can become a name here in the US it may do a lot for boxing in general. I'm not holding my breath.

I'm looking forward to it, going to get it on tv but does anyone know what tv channel it will be on in canada, it appears showtime is not availible here and my search on the listings has come up with nothing so far?

Yeh I'm stoked for this in a circus kinda way. The two are exact opposites in mind and attack, something has to give. If Wilder was anymore fool of himself we'd call him the Hindenburg or Spruce Goose

I have just watched a career highlight reel of Wilder , he has fought some crap for sure.
This fight will tell us if he can take it up to a new level , Stiverne will catch him on the chin at some point , then we will see if Wilder is a KO KING or a PAPER TIGER.

im excited in the sense that they are both big punchers and it will be a good fight while it lasts. neither of them though have proven that they are good fighters yet.

I think Stiverne is the better bet to win this but as per usual I'm going to pick the guy I want to win. So I'm going with Wilder who will hopefully give American boxing a shot in the arm with another big KO.

It doesn't matter who you put in the ring with him, if Wilder gets to land that right anywhere near flush it's going to splatter whoever is on the end of it.

I agree about it being a good fight, but I do think we've seen more of Stiverne than we have of Wilder. What I'm saying is that Stiverne has proven himself in some hard fought fights and Wilder hasn't.
You can't say (I can't, anyway) Wilder is a bum simply because he KOs everyone he fights, in my opinion.
Hopefully it's a good fight for a while, instead of a blowout one way or the other.
I can feel the tension building like a 2 inch, threaded nylon rope being stretched to its breaking point. Stand back!!
Forget I said that, I wouldn't want to sound overly dramatic! Hell man, I'm as cool as a refrigerated cucumber. 😎

I've been waiting and waiting to find out that very same thing. Fight nite is almost upon us.
I'm hoping Wilder wins big because I don't think Stiverne has a chance against Wlad.

I disagree.

We already know Wilder can't beat Wladimir. He has been battered in sparring by Wlad and Haye already.

Stiverne has a real punchers chance.

Unless Wilder has improved drastically since those camps. He looked like a flailing gazelle in the footage I have seen against both aforementioned fighters.

I am excited for this fight as well though, very unpredictable and guaranteed to end in a KO.
