    Which is why Joshua wants nothing to do with him.
    If Wilder can’t take Fury’s head off, he doesn’t deserve to be a champion . If Joshua gets “decimated” by Wilder, then Joshua doesn’t deserve to be a champion. If he can get caught by a guy 2 stone lighter with a windmill that can be seen from outer space, he doesn’t deserve to be a champion.
    Tell me the last time Wilder KO’d someone where he didn’t
    A. Hit them with a windmill
    B. Throw about 10 Windmills
    C. Took a 5 yard run up.
    Now if you or I did one of the above, we would probably knock someone out ffs. That’s not Boxing.
    To me, power is when you throw an uppercut for example with hardly any swing and knock someone out. Like Mike Tyson did. Now that is power.
    If the most powerful and effective way to Box was to swing like acwhirling dervish doing an impression of a giant Bambi on ice, then everyone would box like that. But it’s not, is it?
    The yanks by and large don’t get sucked in by hype, they only go overboard about quality fighters. That is why Wilder hasn’t touched the hearts of the public.
    Your hatred for Wilder is clouding your judgement friend

    I mean you actually think his punching power is a myth

    I will admit that Wilder isn't the most technically skilled boxer in the division, but you're sipping on the haterade so hard that it's removing you from reality.

    And also I find it funny that you bring up Tyson in the conversation without realizing the similarities in opposition.

    And Fury absolutely schools Joshua as well. Not sure why you're looking down on him.
    “Your hatred for Wilder is clouding your judgement friend”

    I think hate is a very emotive word used ignorantly sometimes. I’m not sure if I Hate anybody. Certainly not sure that there are very few people in the World I could hate without ever meeting or speaking to them.
    I used to quite like Wilder as a person, despite never really rating him as a Boxer. But I strongly dislike him now because of his disgusting comments about wanting to kill someone in the ring and how he “wants one on his record.”

    “I mean you actually think his punching power is a myth”

    Yes. In the sense that anyone can severely damage someone if they get the opportunity to swing wildly or take a run up. Fuck me , he even had to take a run up to floor that fucking mascot!

    “I will admit that Wilder isn't the most technically skilled boxer in the division, but you're sipping on the haterade so hard that it's removing you from reality.”

    Yeah, nice one!

    “And also I find it funny that you bring up Tyson in the conversation without realizing the similarities in opposition.”

    Come on mate, don’t embarrass yourself. we won’t go into there early fights unless you want me to, but Mike Tyson’s opponents couldn’t possibly have been worse than Wilder’s. So we’ll go from when Tyson won the title in his 28th fight to Wilder’s opponents from 28th for 10 fights.
    TYSON V WILDER
    BERBICK. V AUDLEY HARRISON
    BONECRUSHER SMITH V LIAKHOVICH
    PINKLON THOMAS. V FIRTHA
    TUCKER. V MALIK SCOTT
    TYRELL BIGGS. V JASON GAVERN
    LARRY HOLMES. V BERMANE STIVERNE
    TONY TUBBS. V ERIC MOLINA
    MICHAEL SPINKS. V DUHAUPAS
    BRUNO. V SZPILIKA
    CARL WILLIAMS. V ARREOLA

    it’s comments like this that make me think that Brock asked to use your profile so he could post when his own profile gets banned. I can’t find another reason for it.

    “And Fury absolutely schools Joshua as well. Not sure why you're looking down on him.”

    Fury may beat Wilder, and he may school Joshua ....... but if he does , that would prove what a pile of shit they both are. Can’t see it myself, but you never know.
    Fury beat Klitschko and that can never be taken away from him. But in reality , one guy averaged 7 punches a round and one 4 punches a round.
    Apart from that , who has Fury EVER fought and what has he EVER done?
    Add to that, that he’s not had a seriou fight for over 3 years , so if Fury does beat them, then either he’s the greatest HW that has ever lived , or they are seriously below par champions in comparison to previous champions.
    I don’t think he’s the greatest HW That has ever lived , so as our transatlantic cousins say, go figure!
