Any love for Kell Brook's win over Shawn Porter in California?

He would beat me in 11 seconds. Coco, Wilder's CV is filled with wins over guys who never beat any body good and one of the worst 'champions' in the history of the sport.
You could easily handle a windmilling fool
But I'm not a boxer. :confused:
You wouldn't need to be against a windmilling fool, especially now with Wilders age and mileage, if you stepped in behind the jab I would expect you to stop him

Yes, but nowhere near the "greatest win"

Was just thinking...?

Who was that guy with weird dyed hair "Tiger pOWER" - IF he'd have won that would have been seismic.
I remember he was doing really well. Ritchie Evatt ?

Junior Jones fight? Aye, I remember that one. Evatt was well on his way to winning that night.

So you're admitting Fury's three wins aren't that impressive. Well done mate, I'm glad you saw sense. :TU:

It was good but so so tight. And it was then downhill all the way.

Wilder was and is obviously shite. The fact that Fury was on his arse in all three fights says it all.

Does anybody here really think lewis would have taken more than a few rounds to demolish him?

wilder's not shite, but he's not close to being in the league as the greats other brits have beaten. the quantity is a mask for the utter dearth of quality wins on his resume. it's why his fanbois are almost always luis ortiz fanbois too, because everyone else he beat is pretty stinky, they needed to hype up those ortiz wins hard. almost 50 fights and the likes of stiverne and breazeale still among the best he beat

and 120-108d by joe parker (who rates above wilder himself)

never unified

etc

for sure good wins, but best win ever by a brit, or close to it? just no, i will rate a legit win over usyk higher
