Stupidest Excuses

Post by margaret thatcher »

After the first fight, team Wilder mentioned various excuses, including the flue, a broken arm, broken fingers, a messed up wrist and hand.

But they've outdone themselves this time, saying that DW's ringwalk outfit was so heavy that it threw him off his game!

Are there any excuses that top this for bizarness?

That's never true is it? That was a joke in the Youtube comments.

Sad to hear that Wilder just couldn't stay with his after fight in-ring talk. That was great. Excuses are bvllshvt. He got the crap kicked out of him.

Yep wilder said after the fight ‘I had a problem with my leg but no excuses’

Actually respect to AJ, for all the rumours he made zero excuses vs Ruiz, absolutely none

Wilders as bad as haye. The first KD last night, you see wilder complaining as his arse hit the floor to the ref

I loved it when Glen Catley announced to everyone in his post fight interview that he'd had diarrhoea all week.

Though he did win that fight...… and then asked his girlfriend to marry him in the same speech.

Always loved Glen as a fighter.

Anyone know what he's up to these days?

Mccall said Lewis looked like God in his white shorts and didn't want to hurt him. So he took a beating.

Keep off the crack kids and put down your bible.

That is the most famous one isn’t it. I still remember when I first heard it.

Wilder stated in the post fight interview while still in the ring, that he won't make any excuses, and that Tyson Fury was the better man on this day. He made no excuses when it mattered most. Right then and there after the fight while everyone was still there to see.

He might have made excuses later on.... but that is probably after his handlers, friends and family whispered into his ear. But I'll take what he said directly after the fight, to heart.

:bag: :box: :bag: :box: :bag:


And Mike Tyson... "Spinal!" I love it!!!

That's among the stupidest "what the f*ck" things I've ever heard out of a fighter.

The way the reporter just kinda ignores it and moves on is great too. Like you can tell he doesn't believe him.

There is no "How'd you break your back" he just "uhh....alright. Tell us about the fight Mike" :lol:
