The Americans will be over the moon

2 heavywieght world champions, back on top of the world

Lord only know how they achieved that, but they did.

Expect Byant Jenning to get a shot at Chagaevs WBA ordinary title or one of the 82 interim version and they can claim they have 3 world champions to our 1

[Boxerbeetle]

That was a brutal knockout punch from Wilder tonight, hope the Pole (won't even attempt to spell his name!) is ok.

Fury was embarrassing afterwards, clearly acting the fool. Would have been much better to see him act with a bit of class & respect imo.

[afcmarshall]

Fury really didn't need to behave like he did last night he looked completely off his head. Everyone knows he's the number one man people should be chasing him he shouldn't be jumping in the ring and bad mouthing people.

[SNG]

For fornicate sake!

Fury is interested in unifying the titles and people find something to moan about! I honestly don't know what's going on these days, this is an exciting prospect, if Wlad was still champion Wilder would have been able to sit in the states while Wlad saw out his career in Germany.

[CharlesListon]

I dont have an issue with Fury doing what he did.
Really hope it leads to a showdown.

[afcmarshall]

Let's just hope when he does get in the ring with him he's still interested in fighting him and actually throws some punches

[CMDY]

Fury certainly did his best to sell the fight!

I actually thought Wilders line was pure class, something like: "I promise you baby, I will baptise you"!

However later on Wilder pointed out that he needed to sort out his mandatory challengers, and obviously Fury has to get past WK.

If the Wilder fight happens, and if as likely it's in the US I wonder if they will be able to get Peter Fury into the States. I'm no expert on US Visas but going to be a challenge.

I think Fury could give Wilder big problems with his agility as Wilder looks pretty clumsy with his footwork.

Ahead of that I would love to see Povetkin vs Wilder, the Russians going to really struggle with the significant reach disadvantage but if he gets inside it should be cracking!

[afcmarshall]

Wilder did say he'd come over here

[Cholo_cws]

Never liked seeing a boxer gatecrash another boxer's night. It was like watching WWE at the end.

Didn't think much of Wilder but obviously he can end a fight if he catches you clean. Still haven't learnt much about Charles Martin.

The answers no. They're very strict on people who have been in prison. Particularly if it's something like drug dealing. That's why he couldnt corner Fury against Cunningham.

Fans moaned about heavys being boring for a decade, as soon as a few try and spice things up....fans moan.

I know hilarious.

I don't think that's the case. People moaned about the Klitschkos primarily because they felt they were boring in the ring.

[afcmarshall]

I'd rather they be exciting in the ring but suppose some people like the wwe bs

Totally agree. Last night Fury was just as embarrassing as Bellew pretending to go after Cleverly. It was so forced it was ridiculous.

[Cyclops]

Are Americans really over the moon that they have two bums as champion that are scared to fight anybody with a pulse? That Wilder won his belt against a nobody, Stiverne, who won his belt fighting for a vacant title against a fat washed up Chris Arreola? That Martin won his belt fighting for a vacant title against an undersized feather fisted guy that nobody really cares about? Wilder doesn't even fight guys in the top ten. The only time he did (for his title) it went to points. Martin wins his because the other guy's leg falls to bits.

These titles are BRITISH goddamit! We're only bloody coming for them aren't we?

I know it was brilliant

[Stuarty]

Ed Robinson was spot on with his comments about the IBF fight. 'Vindication' sums it up. I'm actually half glad that fight ended when it did because it was shaping up to be a long, frustrating night not worthy of contesting a world title. Martin looks very slow and also looked tired early.

Szpilka fought a good fight til he got caught but that's heavyweight boxing. Fury v Wilder would be fun but I can't see Wilder getting past Povetkin tbh.

spot-on mate , but plenty here love it , if you like a dancing , clowning , singing champ I guess you are as happy as a pig in $hit , enjoy it whilst it last tho'

[magwitch]

..first time for everything.

[rd350lc]

..first time for everything.

and last I hope !

[milpool]

After seeing the tomfoolery in the ring afterwards, I'm almost sorry Tyson Fury has to fight Wlad again. Wilder v Fury would be fun as would the build up.

Between those 2 "world champions" they have had 60 fights and have only beat one top 10 opponent

[keirw]

I can't imagine they are 'over the moon'.
Martin's victory was a massive anti-climax (though that wasn't his fault) and Wilder was far from convincing against a man that had previously been stopped by Jennings.
