Deontay Wilder vs Johann Duhaupas on NBC

[palmerq]

Anyone see his fight with Charr?

I watched the first half of it on youtube a while ago, and it was very uniteresting, they took turns in stepping forward and throwing a few punches into the guard of the other guy, it bored me so i turned it off :S.. Charr looked slower and less lively than he did before povetkin ko'd him and duhaupass looked solid but nothing special at all.. Don't think wilder will have too hard a time hitting him.. I guess if wilder turns up hungover or drunk he could lose :S

What an embarrassing fight.

What an embarrassing fight.

These are the type that make you hope for upsets, no matter WHO the champ is

Its great to have a heavyweight title fight on 'free' network tv...but Haymon is beginning to turn out some seriously poor matches for his heavy favorites. I think Kassi and Breazeale could be entertaining.

All things go according to plan we hope Wilder will meet Povetkin as his mandatory, but if a body allows to non ranked guys to fight for trinket why should we believe they'll hold Wilder a timeline or force it?

I think kassi would have been a better opponent for wilder for tonight, if he(or more accurately his handlers) don't want to fight povetkin right away he might as well take on a tricky opponent who could give him problems which would be good experience for wilder, instead they have gone with the line "he's tall and has never been stopped" :S....... Kassi is a similar size to povetkin who is meant to be next for wilder but I suspect wilders teams plan is to sidestep povetkin and cash out by fighting wladimir after this.... that is if wladimir ever recovers from the shock of seeing tyson fury dressed as batman :Stha



come to think of it kassi is coming off a draw and a loss, would have been hard to sell that to even the wbc :S but still i think a guy like him is who wilder should have chosen for this fight

[Spicoli]

Breazeale really trying to talk it up here and show some personality. Really wonder if he's just another Calvin Brock though, he is not hard to miss, if Kassi can stay under him this could be very interesting.

[Freedom]

Kassi is doing okay so far, despite the size disadvantage.

[Spicoli]

Fighting Kassi has to make a guy feel bipolar, awkward ugly but makes it work with constant shifts at the waist. Crosses himself, falls over and half the time gives the look of being hit then fires back from angels in another stance. Have it 1-1

Breazeale has zero idea when on the ropes

[Spicoli]

Ha, Kassi snapped him around in closing seconds!
