Because for years most boxing forum boxing experts have considered Wilder a bum. . . .

Post by actjac »

. . . .and considering that the experts would not waste their money on watching a bum fight the how will you find out the results?. . . . read it from a sports site or your favorite boxing forum? . . . Will you look for the highlights later on YouTube?. . . .Will you even care about the results? Undoubtedly you all consider a foregone conclusion that Fury will beat the bum but will you then give him any credit for the win?. . . . and will you consider him a champion?.

I'll likely be watching a college football conference title game and expect to see the result on the score ticker.

I'm getting the PPV!
Fingers crossed it's not a snoozer.
The undercard is about average, not too bad. I don't know if it is available for me in my country, but if it is - I already have managemental approval :yay:

Why wouldn't a boxing fan want to watch it? Cost maybe, I know some PPV's are super expensive in the US.

It’s not a bad card at all. 2 HW bouts not inc. main event and Hurd.

Regular showtime are showing Stevenson before that via a split-site telecast. But you might get that too?

I hope to get it on regular TV.
I have a problem with Internet other than what I can get on my mobile.

If it wasn't for the irrational wilder hate I wouldn't have become a fan. I'm definitely going to watch, not sure about buying it. Two UFC ppvs next month.

You can almost hear the sphincters tighten when Wilder gets mentioned around here, the irrational hate is definitely real. Imagine if he said all the awful shit Fury used to be known for saying there'd be a fuggin' international investigation.. I will be watching, and no result would surprise me. 2 unpredictable goofballs with retard strength, and it's all on the line. Either Wilder gets that one big shot through, early or late preferably late and having to battle back from a few scary moments, or Fury befuddles Wilder round after round keeps tidy on defense and earns a clear decision. Those two scenarios seem most possible to me. I think Wilder has shown the heart and durability some thought he lacked, but this fight will be a test of his ring IQ. If he is lacking there, on December 1, he's in a for a long night.

Wilder will probably be criticised more after Fury. The Gypsy King is to outclass Deontay, so everyone will say, how Wilder nearly blown the first defence against a solid contender Ortiz and lost the second one to Fury.

Heading down to Mexico to watch it at the sportsbook.

Getting Wilder at less than a 1-2 favorite to beat the far overmatched, overrated Fury, is a tasty treat I can't pass up.

WTF is the purpose of this thread? :o :-?

There’s nothing wrong with people believing that Tyson Fury can beat Deontay Wilder, but they’re in the minority and this is reflected by the betting odds also, because the American is the favourite.

I personally expect a victory for ‘The Bronze Bomber’, whilst anticipating the American to stop the Brit, but if Wilder fails to score the knockout, then I believe that Tyson Fury can upset the betting odds and gain a decision victory.

So what’s wrong with this bloke that created this thread and those ludicrous comments he’s made? :brick:

Wilder is a bum. I wouldn't call a fighter who was 0-150 a bum unless he was a crook taking dives or something, but much more importantly Wilder is a bum as a person. Where is the poor guy (or girl) who was in that goofy costume on that Spanish language TV show that Wilder sucker punched with all his might? Has anybody actually seen him or her? Is he still in the hospital? Wilder in his initial idindonuffin comment said he didn't know a person was inside the costume.

Plus his crook fights and non fights and easy fights that his handlers fixed for him.

Despite what some forum experts may believe his team's entire strategy must have been to get him to where he is today, and in this they have done an excellent job. But those days of wrapping him up in cotton wool and planning the safest route are over now.

Luis Ortiz was a big step up, a very dangerous one as we saw, but now a different challenge awaits. In just over 2 weeks he will have to find a way to tag the defensive minded Fury - not the easiest thing in the world to do.

The winner of that will then get to go head to head with AJ for the biggest purse in HW boxing for decades.

I, for one, love watching Deontay Wilder fight and I am grateful that despite some nasty injuries he's always managed to stay busy.

No boxing expert ever thought of Wilder as a bum.

Apparently the OP is being sarcastic when he refers to "boxing experts."

He means anyone who opines on social media passes themselves off as an expert.
