Wilder isn't built for that much muscle. He fought at under 200ibs In the olympics and was against a genuine super heavyweight. He was beaten by his genetic superior in the heavyweight division. Do you disagree?

Think he is saying it could be construed as having racist undertones. Probably better just saying “the better man/boxer won which is exactly what I witnessed.

It is what it is. Wilder was carrying too much weight and was gassed after 4 rounds and didn't have the chin to prevent a humiliating defeat. I appreciate the point but it is what it is and Wilder was inferior in every way however you see it.

I don't disagree.

As has been pointed out, you keep repeating it as though Mein Kampf is your bedside reading material.

Everything you say is absolutely correct, but your choice of words can easily be misinterpreted.

Boxing is 2 men in a ring fighting. Anybody who sees racial divides in it has it in their heart to see that. As you have said wilder just isn't able to compete in that sort of fight on a genetic level. It is what it is and there is nothing racist about it mate. If people are stupid enough to think it is I imagine it would say more about them than the proper boxing fans who understand the sport and judging by your comments you would also be part of that.(proper boxing fans) I appreciate your advice though.

Fury pretty much destroyed Wilder in every way and shape possible across all 3 fights for me.

This one was Wilder at his peak, more aggressive. Hit fury with his trademark...still didn't stop him, still got out boxed.

The sad truth for Wilder is that he should never have been put in with a genuine super heavyweight. This isn't like a supreme athlete and technician like Usyk. He was a tall and for his height skinny fighter who got by on matchmaking. You just have to look at his legs to see how frail he is carrying 210ibs let alone 231 ibs. I can't blame his ambition but he's not a natural heavyweight in terms of what he weighted tonight. No shame in that though

No shame. But he had 3 chances and was schooled in boxing for all 3. Added more aggression in this last one but Fury took everything the man had, still got up, out boxed him, out fought him, knocked him out.

Great fight but should never have gone to 3 fights. Wilder was done in that last one imo.

Do wonder what excuse he haz now though.

Sadly he wasn't man enough to own his defeats. Showed a complete lack of class in the eyes of many fans. He was a decent world champion who despite being matched very well you can't take that away from him. He showed some bottle but he just wasn't up for it. Sadly for him it's just not in his genes to have that type of fight at that level of weight.

Absolutely.

Lennox Lewis said that he's a puncher not a boxer...so if he can't knock someone out, he's in trouble. Fury did that and dismantled him as a boxer.
 
1-2 Usyk vs 13-8 Joshua

8-11 Fury vs 6-5 Usyk

2-5 Fury vs 2-1 Joshua

4-9 Joshua vs 7-4 Whyte

1-6 Fury vs 4-1 Whyte

Corals

Fury knocked Wllder down in the tenth yet one of the judges Steve Weisfeld inexplicably scored it 10-9 - echoes of the first fight when Fury was robbed by one judge of an obvious victory
