Meh, he wasn't really badly hurt at any point in the fight. One fighter went down more than once and it wasn't Wilder.Visibly bothered is an understatement. Wilder had two swollen eyes.

YESWhat's the significance? Is that how long Whyte has been #1 Contender by the WBC?
Fuck 800 days! That sounds ridiculous when you put it like that. The WBC should be ashamed of themselves.
It would be great if he did try and box Wilder on the inside but Fury has said he's going to knock out virtually every opponent he's ever had so I don't buy it for a second. But I'd be more than pleasantly surprised if he did get in Wilder's face and in-fight.Find it very interesting what fury said; ´i cant win a decision in america, thats why im going for a knockout'. Mano el mano, center of the ring, no running.
Tyson's inside game is underrated if he actually goes for it. Truely wonder how Wilder wil respond to a chavez esque inside brawl. Hope he will actually do what he says.
I'd say that's what he should try to do, get in Wilder's chest and impose his weight advantage. Make it a physical fight at close range. At distance Wilder is too dangerous to gamble with for too long and at mid range he can still nail you with a short straight or short overhand right.It would be great if he did try and box Wilder on the inside but Fury has said he's going to knock out virtually every opponent he's ever had so I don't buy it for a second.

Lol are we calling £5m crumbs off the table now!
a world title challenger turning down 5m for a chance at 3 belts is almost as laughable as fans calling it crumbs off the table. If he fought and beat Joshua or wilder then he can write his own cheques. There was no logic in turning down the fight unless he didn’t think he could win, or didn’t really want that fight. As he’s been chasing wilder for 3 years I’d say it was the latter
I have to hide behind the couch whenever Wilder speaks. Never cringed at another human so much in my life.
That's the way I wanted Fury to fight in the first meeting. He's quite a decent in-fighter for such a big man and he'd have a clear advantage over Wilder at that range. But I think he feels more at home keeping it at long. I agree with you at mid to long range it's a gamble because Wilder only has to land once to change the fight.I'd say that's what he should try to do, get in Wilder's chest and impose his weight advantage.

-Also didnt Whtye have issues with PED accusations and a suspension durring this time that just recently got cleared up that was stopping him from getting fights???AJ apparantly got 85m(against ruiz), if whyte gets 5m, that's a 5/95 PPV split, that would be the most lopsided split in PPV history, laughable indeed. And even if he won, all he would get is a second helping of stale, trodden on crumbs in a rematch.
I don't blame the WBC, I don't see what they have done wrong, whyte should have fought Pulev to become mandatory, that is the error in all this

True, he says it a lot and still goes for a point fighting show like against wlad.It would be great if he did try and box Wilder on the inside but Fury has said he's going to knock out virtually every opponent he's ever had so I don't buy it for a second.
