    Looking at the type of fight and how he was able to land with full force several times I would kind of agree, but to say you broke your arm 12 weeks before a fight is pretty extreme. It is not quite on Tyson broken back territory, but still rather eyebrow raising.

    Fighters gonna lie about stuff like that, or at least stretch the truth a whole lot.

    With me it's like... if you step into the ring, then you're ready, come what may. Not sure what Wilder is trying to accomplish here... but we've all seen this song and dance from many a fighter after they've lost.

    That's why I'd love a rematch, to settle things once and for all. They fought well enough to deserve it.

    Honestly still trying to figure if it's supposedly his arm or his hand, he has said both in different interviews . He had surgery after the arreola fight too. For both. It's all very confusing right now. But I bet he stops running around punching Mexican mascots without getting paid at least. Might want to work on proper punching technique.

    Boxers lie to make excuses for their poor performances all the time! Remember Manny's shoulder...?

    Breaking his arm three months before his training camp started seems very plausible to me and not really any excuse, they went ahead with everything as normal so I don't see why he should prove it. It's a mildly interesting thing to happen but so far before the fight, who cares really. People have various degrees of broken too, I doubt it was a mortal kombat style bone breaker.
