Wilder is bound to have some sort of rematch clause in there in the event of him losing. It seems pretty standard for current champions to do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moorside roughyed Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 A boxing masterclass, simple as that. I thought he'd outpoint wilder but he beat him in every department. He didn't just beat him, he beat him up. The Tyson Fury we witnessed ladt night would beat any heavyweight today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) Looks like Mark Breland is gonna be the scapegoat , but I think he only deserves praise . It’s ok for Deas and Wilder to talk about going out on your shield , but there’s also common sense on a how a fight is going , how a fighter is looking , and that fighters future and wellbeing . He talks about having a body on his record , he should thank Breland it wasn’t his . He was smashed to smithereens with no end to it in sight . Honestly if Deas wanted that to go on just so he could be carried out in some faux brave glory , wilder needs to look for a new trainer .

Bedford Roughyed Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I have to confess, I didn't give Fury much of a chance. 1 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Decimus Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 Speculation has already begun around what the next fight will be. Everybody obviously wants AJ-Fury for undisputed but I suspect Wilder will go for the rematch. He might not want to but might feel it's his only option for the same reason AJ rematched Ruiz straight away. Let's face it, people aren't going to be falling over themselves to gift Wilder a title shot. He might be clumsy but he's still very dangerous. 1 A Widnesian in Ireland blog What is the best system for Super League?

He told Deas he was thinking of throwing the towel in , Deas said don’t do that ... and he throw it over his head ! Apparently they were , err , gonna talk about it later . You could see wilder asking Breland ‘ what did you do that for ? ‘ . Well big lad watch the replay and see why . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been terrible how he’s been frozen out In hindsight, he should have taken the second AJ fight. He's been treated appallingly by Wilder and the WBC, but like you say there isn't going to be much chance now for a long time. His best bet would probably be Fury beating AJ and then retiring. The breakup of the belts would give him a shot. The problem is that he'll have to keep on winning to get his shot and that's far from guaranteed.

Maximus Decimus Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Any sympathy I had for Deontay Wilder has quickly diminished. The guy has no class. So much for his no excuses, he's blamed his 18kg outfit that he walked out in for his loss. He's also claimed Fury's punches didn't hurt and that he shouldn't have been pulled out, repeating his statements about wanting a body in the ring and being willing to give up his body if necessary. Compare that to Anthony Joshua's comments after the Ruiz fight and how he's still not revealed what went wrong. A Widnesian in Ireland blog What is the best system for Super League?
