Deontay calling out Fury's bullshit

 

[kodecraft]

This turned into WWE Smackdown.

.

 

[Wall]

Wilder's length and conditioning will give anyone in the division problems even if he's not the most skilled or coordinated guy in the world.

 

[ramoisdead]

HAHAHAHA this ain't the Dubbya Dubbya E, bay-bay.

Man what a night for sports.

 

[PR_rambo]

I hope Fury gets his chance to end up on the end of Wilder's right hand.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Tyson just humiliated himself.

 

[perineumlick]

I'm starting to like Deontay lol. "I will baptize you!"

 

[BadAss2961]

Vicious knockout.

Loved the Wilder/Fury promo at the end. Straight pro wrestling, even ending with Deontay's BOMBSQUAD mantra.

Especially with Fury taking off his jacket and throwing it down in an exaggerated fashion lol

 

[Anachronox]

Fury has no class, so pointless when he has to fight Wlad before he can even think about anything else. Sad.

Looked like some Ric Flair shit. All that was left for him to do was take his pants off and start knee dropping the ring.

Its nice to have some characters in the HW division though, Wlad and Vitali were so dry that I actually like Fury's antics.

LMAO!

 

[Wall]

I, for one, am glad Fury kept his pants on.

I appreciate the entertainment though.

Good fight tonight too.

 

[NervousXtian]

Incredible KO... he just destroyed him.

 

[perineumlick]

I don't think Fury can beat Szpilka, much less Wilder. He's just a big, goofy, knock kneed motherfucker.

 

[Turin]

Shit. That was a Hearns-tier KO. BOOM!

 

[scabro]

HAHAHAHA this ain't the Dubbya Dubbya E, bay-bay.

Man what a night for sports.

that was great

"this aint the wwe"

cuts wwe promo

 

[Tater Tot]

lmao I can't stop laughing

[Tom_Cody]

Ref.....no need to count.

lol at the ref. That was the most unnecessary count of all time. He was down for 15 minutes.

 

[Tom_Cody]

Shit. That was a Hearns-tier KO. BOOM!

For real. Those rights he landed prior to the KO were vicious as well. Szpilka's head blasted back like he had been hit by a baseball bat.

lmao I can't stop laughing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JL7h72NigqE

Seriously. I had DVRed the fight so I just got around to watching it now. My GF and I are still laughing.

 

[El Topo]

Oh God, the Fury/Wilder segment. I'm dying.

 

[harSon]

jesus

 

[Tom_Cody]

jesus

He landed some pretty nasty rights earlier in the fight as well.

When it happens Fury outboxes Wilder fairly easy(That's if Wilder even makes it past Povetkin)

Wilder is exciting, but I can't stomach manufactured champs.

To his credit Wilder did beat a top 10 HW opponent to win his belt, so while his record does have a lot of fluff he beat someone people thought highly of.

 

[jchap]

Wlad was so passive he basically gave his belt away. I dont think the rematch will be similar and I dont think Fury matches up well with Wilder

 

[charsace]

I doubt Fury would outbox wilder. He might have a higher skill level, but he doesn't have the athletic ability to not catch Wilder's right hand.

He did all that was asked of him I guess. As long as his competition keeps trending up I could learn to like him, but as of now "meh".

What makes you doubt that? This last fight wasn't some massacre. Spzilka definitely had moments and he's not even in the same league as Fury (And trust me I live in Chicago. I've seen Arthur more than enough). Arthur is 6'2, no jab, no defense. He is pretty "slick" on offense. Was giving Wilder a pretty good go, until the KO. I fail to see how he's going to beat a 6'9" guy who has slick movement, has a great jab and has a reach to keep him on the end of a jab.

Deontay relies too much on his athleticism for me. He has a mediocre jab, shit footwork, poor balance, and a very leaky defense. You can tell he was just an athletic guy that got into it and lacks amateur experience.

And by what you even say

"He might have a higher skill level"

Exactly. Give me skill all day over "He might land a big right"

 

[Turin]

Fury's days with that championship are numbered.

 

[perineumlick]

Who is this 6'9" heavy with slick movement and a great jab? Dying to meet him; lol Fury vs Wlad was the most sorry display of championship fighting I've seen in my life. If that was the best of Fury, then that belt won't last long around his waist.

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

The WBA announced a tournament to get rid of their Super/Regular/Interim belts at heavy and just have one champ. There's some fuckery with FRES OQUENDO having a first round bye and only being in due to a court order. LOL.

 

[abuC]

When are we going to get another boxing game?

 

[Turin]

When are we going to get another boxing game?

When EA allows Brizzo to do so. Possibly not this gen it seems.

Kahn talking shit on Twitter, then Matchroom reveals he wants a guaranteed £10m, 80/20 split to fight Kell Brook

They've offered this coward a 60/40 split in his favour for a Wembley Stadium June showdown.

 

[CopperPuppy]

The Khan-Brook situation has never not been pathetic.

80/20 is closer to the correct split. Brook has only fought one top-30 fighter in his entire career.

Seems like a lot of the upcoming heavyweights talk a ton of shit lmao. Jarrell Miller (Big Baby) called out Wilder, Fury and Joshua in the ring last night: http://www.boxingscene.com/jarrell-miller-wilder-im-coming-your-alabama-bbq--100624

Everyone is getting busy now that Wlad is done. Understandable. Kinda wish Wlad would just retire, given how entertaining this past month has been.

Yeah, the Heavyweight division has been more exciting then its been in a long time. I'd like to see someone fight Ortiz too. Too bad he's already in his mid 30s :/

 

[Tenebrous]

Should be good. Who's carrying this in the UK?

He can't bend him over like that, but Khan definitely deserves a bigger share. Maybe 65/35

I can't stand Khan and his blabbering, but Brook shouldn't be rewarded for feasting on domestic level guys while Khan has at least been testing himself at the world level(Even if Garcia or Peterson were expected to be easy touches).

It might not, but Wilder isn't the one taking it from him, believe that.

And one fight at the top of the top level is evidence of Fury's boxing abilities not being there? That wouldn't be the first time in boxing history a fight between two top ranked opponents turned out a dull chess match. The largest selling 'super' fight in history just last summer was one of them.

 

[Syphon Filter]

I got Danny winning but rooting for Guerrero.

 

[BadAss2961]

Breazeale's so damn big and clunky.

 

[Jarrod38]

The fuck just happened there?

 

[King Kovu]

Wtf!!!

 

[ramoisdead]

Ref stopped the fight. Too bad. Last round was very entertaining.

 

[BadAss2961]

Broke his jaw. Couldn't close his mouth.

Mansour's corner reaction was pretty funny.
