MickC 1,825 Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) F 6 minutes ago, shaaark said: Yeah, that was my understanding. I can see a bowe/lewis scenario on the horizon regarding wilder and fury/jushua lol. The politics etc is definitely turning fans away from the sport. Or rather, I should say some fans lol If the Hearn offer of 40% is true then there is no denying that if Wilder refuses the fight he is the one clearly avoiding the fight with Joshua. It would be nice to think after all the back and forth between the three top Heavyweights that the belt organisations are going to step in and sort it all out for the sake of the fans and also to clear the situation up.

Jonjon79 13,340 Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Watching some YouTube videos today - Mike Tyson in his early 20s would have buried Tyson Fury - that lad was so hungry for it that no one was going to hold him back Fury is ok for now but, back then he would have been hospitalised - I'm convinced that he couldn't have stood up to Holyfield, Bruno, Spinks ot Holmes,. They were just a different class. Let alone the likes of Ali and Cooper 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let alone the likes of Ali and Cooper Iron mike was an explosive fast ko fighter he was good at that no doubt and he dominated until the buster douglas ko, but the one skeleton in his cupboard was that his camp ducked big George foreman and that’s a FACT as they said he was the wrong type of fighter for iron mike. And I still think Frazier would have mauled iron mike as that man dug deeper that any fighter ever the man never knew what quit was. And in all due respect to iron mike he admits the good fighters of the past and is humbled by their achievements 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But no-one talks of morrison as a 'great'. Again, no-one regarded ali as a 'puncher', but he was the only man to knock out foreman in his prime. Wilder is ordinary, cos he's fought no-one, apart from ortiz. And even his own connections didn't want him fighting klitschko, who they also managed, even after he'd had 30 fights. Fury aint much better. Sad sad times for heavyweights Quote Link to post Share on other sites
