Comments Thread For: Fury-Wilder III Was So Good You Couldn't Script It

[greeneye99]

If Deontay never fights again, thats fine with me ; I genuinely care about his well-being. I am grateful to have witness him breaking records and making history. But more importantly, how he carried America and sport with honor and integrity, never taking shortcuts.

I'm sure the state of Alabama will produce more world-champions now that Deontay and Jay Deas have assisted in forming a boxing-commission in sweet-home Alabama, what a great person and a meaningful life -- a true inspiration.

Great!
Now do yourself a favour......

Does anyone know why Malik Scott was giving Wilder drinks from 2 different bottles he was holding at the same time, between rounds? Lid off the clear one, drink from that, lid back on, lid off the red and white one, drink from that. I think the label said Panama Lewis Mix.

Yea, I've noticed that too.

I'm a fan of Wilder. And I like the Gypsy King, too. Only when it comes to boxing, though, for both. I don't care too much for their personalities.

With that out of the way, I've been saying this ever since I first saw Deontay Wilder fight, which I think was against Firtha: Wilder needs to add a lot of mass to his legs. And even if he didn't think he needed to do that for all his years as a professional because it never came into play, he should have realized that after the 2nd fight with Fury. He had a year and a half to do that and what does he talk about? Benching 350! He should have focused on squatting, leg presses, etc. That's the only way he could withstand Fury leaning on him.

And yeah, the Gypsy King fought dirty. He should have been deducted a point for holding behind the head and hitting. But WIlder's team should have expected that after the dirty/mauling tactics of the second fight. Prepare for it. Fight dirty back. Russell Mora didn't allow Fury to maul as much as the ref in the second fight, but besides breaking them up fairly quickly when that was happening, he still didn't do enough. But, team Wilder should have been prepared for it.

Was the fight close? How can a dominant win be great? Berlanga-Coceres was a better fight.

Antonio Marg. Vs Pacquaio and Moslet some of my favorite fights and they were complete beatdowns lol

fury’s got a ton of heart and will. But he was knocked out cold in the 1st fight and should have lost. He also got a long count in the 4th round and the fight should have been waved off. He’s a sloppy fighter but effective. I don’t see much skill I just see a giant man winning fights with heart and body weight and size. Leans on you to wear you down.

[marciano767]

That was a hell of a fight.

This is one of the few fights where I like both guys and really don't want either to lose (Crawford/Porter is gonna be like that too)

I'm not disappointed in either.

I'm just as happy for Tyson Fury as I am disappointed for Deontay Wilder.

It's good when boxing can produce these types of results with no controversy and we should celebrate that.

ggg is finished. Pillow fisted.

Bob Arum & George Foreman said it's one of the best HW title fights ever, in fact Arum said it's the best title fight he's ever seen, and he's been in boxing for 50+ years.

Robbie B on boxingscene knows better doe

Shhhhh Robbie Barrett has spoken and the clown knows more about Boxing than George Foreman and Arum combined. He’s the all knowing, all sports encompassing czar. For all intents and purposes he invented Boxing. He was Charlie Zelenoff before Charlie Zelenoff.

George Foreman who had Pacquiao winning against Mayweather? Do i need to mention all the ****** **** Arum has claimed, never mind the fact he's Fury's promoter. You the clown kid.

Edit: Just remembered Foreman said 54 year old Tyson can fight for the title last year.

Yes, we know Robbie. You know more about boxing sitting with that beautiful Cheeto face dusted from your basement than an ATG boxer who has also been broadcasting and an analyst of boxing for an additional 30 years. Mmmhmmm the great Oz Robbie has spooookennnn!
