That's mainly because korfbal is a Dutch invention and hardly anyone plays it outside of the Netherlands :TU:

Anyone that can put to sleep a tough Pole with one punch is a legend in the making.

Could Fury send Szpilka home on a stretcher? He'd have his hands full just winning.

God, I can't wait to see Wilder buy that colorless lout Povetkin, a one-way ticket on the Siberian Express, courtesy of the division's best puncher since Foreman.
:lol:

I guess Mike Mollo is a god as he put a tough pole's light's out in one round.

Basketball same story right? Baseball as well. Oh well, the Dutch are world champion in that, but that's a different story.

The Dutch baseball team owes it success to players from the Caribbean, not to tall kids from Aalsmeer or Lutjebroek. Because it includes players from Aruba / Curacao etc. the baseball team has specifically been named 'Kingdom of the Netherlands' team. In other sports each of the former Netherlands Antilles and the Netherlands itself have their own national teams. Anyway, back to the topic..... no I wasn't surprised that it took Wilder so long to stop Szpilka :TU:

Anyone can look bad in a clip and that includes Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali.
Including Joe Louis and Muhammad Ali... The thing about that clip is Wilder was holding and steadying his opponent with his left hand on his neck, with no admonishment from the referee.. That's a foul almost every referee will warn you about and Wilder has had a lot of friendly referees... What happens when he's over in London facing Joshua with neutral referees??? Povetkin is lot more skillful than Wilder by a big factor.

He took out Duhaupas a lot faster and more emphatically with not much coming back at him because he knows how to defend himself... while Wilder got his face all beaten up by Duhaupas and couldn't put him away.

Also, while successful, their baseball team is not world champion.

Wilder made Duhaupus look like the damn terminator. It wasn't until Povetkin got ahold of him that we knew it was because Wilder is so shit.
