F--- boxing

Thoughts on Wilder' comments?

 

If he dies, he dies.

 

I say if you're going into a pro fight without intentions of inflicting bodily harm, you're probably not much of a professional boxer.

 

Wilder is his own worst enemy when it comes to promotion.

If he means what he says, he's deranged. If he doesn't, it's a terrible piece of performance art.

Either way, his handlers need to shut him up, and change his look. Those ringwalk masks are an embarrassment.

He's a good-looking kid. He's a nice guy. They should dress him in well-cut suits and tell him never to speak.

He's a terrible boxer, but a powerful puncher. That 40 - 0 - 1 record says more about the sad state of boxing than it does his abilities, but he's a champion and needs to learn to act like one.

That the general public have no idea who this guy is speaks volumes about how poorly he's been promoted.

 

Shit talking is everything in boxing. In general Wilder is a pretty nice guy. Apparently these two have a very real issue.

But they all talk shit. Hell Daniel Jacobs even called Mexi-ginger a "Motherfucker" after their weigh-in stare down and that guy never says anything bad about anyone.

 

Dress nice, well-cut suits, all that shit is great. And when he's at the Met Gala it's perfect.

But people pay to see heavyweights knock people out and no one does it better right now than Wilder.

 

I don't know if he's dead, but he might be wishing he was. Holy mother of God. Two minutes into the fight, a one-punch knockout.

 

The full speed view, with the 20-30 seconds leading up to the punch:

 

The *sound* of that punch landing. Damn.

 

Huge right hand, for sure.

Still can't quite fill the Barclays Center.

 

Watch Brazeale drop his left for the counter after Wilder's jab.

Awful. Just flat-footed with his hands down in the box right in front of Wilder.

How'd he ever get to 20 - 1 ?

 

Oh, I've seen Brazeale look quite dangerous himself in earlier fights. As heavyweight contenders go, he was a legitimate one. Wilder is just an animal.
