Wilder isn't that good. But god damn that boy has an eraser.

Now please...please...PLEASE can we see Wilder in against a live body? Consider it a 39th fight gift for the fans

I want to see a replay of the stoppage but they keep showing the knockdown. I saw a lot of punches missing, thought Washington could survive it.

I think most of the shots missed, but Washington didn't know how to recover. The stoppage seemed good to me, especially given the lack of protest for Gerald.

Yea fair enough, he just seems a bit protected to me. plus one of the judges had him ahead.

Whatever the relative skill levels..........that was an enjoyable three fight night.

Anyone know the judges score cards? I had Washington 4-0.

The commentator said 2 judges had it even and one had Wilder ahead.

How is that even possible? How can you win rounds without landing anything?

It's fuucked. It makes me sick. He's very protected.

No, Wilder wasn't very impressive tonight, but he was coming off of two serious injuries to his right arm/hand & a long layoff against a big, strong awkward guy with a good jab. So, I give him a B grade for tonight. He showed again that despite all else, his right hand is a great equalizer.
Sure, right now I'd favor Joshua over him, but we don't know anything about Joshua's chin yet. And he has yet to show how he'll respond to real adversity.
As for Wilder's lack of competition, it sounds like he & his people are legitimately going after Joseph Parker should he get past Fury in a month or two. After which, should he beat Parker I'm sure they'll look to unify vs the Joshua/Klitschko winner.

Solid PBC card. This FS1 fight is awesome!

... bullshit stoppage ...

The writing was on the wall after that right hand & Washington didn't complain at the stoppage. He didn't want any more.
Sure, the ref could have waited for a couple more shots to land or another knockdown to occur, but it wasn't necessary. Wilder found the range & the fight was over.

The referee was definitely eager to stop the fight, but I think Washington was shook up pretty badly and probably would've been stopped anyway. I think he had done well enough up to that point to be given more of a chance to survive though.

PBC is delivering good cards these days. Breazeale is highly unskilled but damn that motherfucker has heart. Sadly, I on;ly saw the first two rounds of the main event because I forgot to extend my DVR. Harrison is really skilled but he has stamina and chin issues. Hurd is fortunate that Charlo moved up.

PS. War Wilder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

F'g boxing that's why I almost fall over backwards when I hear boxing judges render an honest decision.

ENJOY!!

I wouldn't pick Wilder to beat Ortiz or Joshua or Fury. I think Ortiz and AJ would KO him and Fury would outjab and hug him to death. Klit will be retired soon.

However. Wilder has fight ending power. So no matter how much I think these other guys may be better than he is - he can hurt you, very badly, with one punch. And that throws any sort of analysis to sh*t.

Wilder would destroy fury.

No way. Fury would make Wilder look stupid for most of the fight.

Of course, with that mythical boxing ability. No way fury survives, none.

Wilder could beat anyone. Just look at the amazing fighters he beat to affirm that.
