Re: To Wilder's credit-
I think the only reason these two looked more formidable is (as some already said) he picked low guys on the totem pole.. so he could sandbag and perfect his 1000 approaches to the 1,2... and 1000 angled on the swatting hook/cuff... Somewhere in there they didnt read the script and actually tried and that somehow caught him off gaurd.
I'd have still given him a little more credit if he just fought the chris arreola that got a gift decision, but he instead when and found the frenchman. Duhuapas' style alone was a big red flag. Putting on the muffs and doing his heavybag impression should have made the fight like an open training session. He still outjabbed "mr. bomb squaT"
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
