I give him respect..but Wilder got hit with roundhouse punches that should never land ! Wilder needs to retire !

Fine but he also lost to a 7 foot Fury. So either way loses to 2 elite heavyweights one short one tall. Perhaps need one somewhere in between?

[@Da_Publick]

@@Kayluv101 That's bullshit. He fought smaller guys back when he was the WBC champion. Wilder just isn't that good, technically; and he never was. And Teddy Atlas has been saying that for _years._

[@sonlyme4445]

There is a reason Deontay's big shots all missed Ted. It is called boxing. Wilder has had a great career for a man who can't box, but his management made a terrible error when they decided to add the scalp of the long inactive Fury to Deontay's CV to strengthen their hand in the AJ unification talks. Those Fury fights, and now this Parker one, confirm for me that Deontay may have been better off taking that 100m for the two fight AJ deal. Sure, he may have taken the 40% side but that 40% would dwarf what he got for getting pounded by Fury then outfoxed by Parker. Retirement calls.

[@jackgoff4859]

The 2 fight AJ deal would've been derailed by an obese man KOing Joshua. AJ's head doesn't move and is far too big for Wilder to have missed that badly. Wilder 100% beats AJ a few years ago.

Perfectly put.

[@MrDoolan72]

Wilder has been shown to be the biggest manufactured Heavyweight of all time. He's only fought two legitimate top ten fighters in his career. He lost every fight (even the draw) and lost almost every round in those four fights. As soon as Wilder got put on the back foot in Rd 11 in Fury's first fight, the blueprint was there for all to see.

[@billdoor3140]

Correct

[@billdoor3140]

​@@randymarsh2901non boxer Ngannou floored fury...wilders average ranking opponents are 200th-300th. He paid off WBC to allow him to consistently fight opponents ranked hundreds of places lower than him.

[@MrDoolan72]

@@randymarsh2901I think it's bang on about Wilder. His best opponent other than the two I mentioned was King Kong Ortiz. A geriatric who got dropped more times in one fight by Charles Martin than he did with his fights against Wilder. Wilders power was a myth. A fairytale. Every fighter he'd faced had been dropped before and most were coming off long lay offs. He only fought Fury because he'd lost 9 stone and hadn't fought for 18 months. Eric Molina and Ortiz both ate Wilders right hand. Took it flush many times before dropping. And they only dropped when tired. AJ has the best resume in the HW division (fact). So I don't think we can call AJ a fraud. It's not the same thing. His resume is littered with top ten opponents. Wilder has two. Of which he never beat.. Fury is also a bit overrated. The Trilogy and Fury's mouth made them both look better than they were...Fury talks a great game but hes very selective about his opponents. He played tap with Klitschko and nicked a victory. Got done for PEDs and didn't go through with the rematch. Because Vlad would have changed his game plan for the second fight. AJ knocked out a very well trained Klitschko. AJ knocked out Wallin and Fury went the distance and could have got stopped for the cut. Fury picked Dillian Whyte only after he'd twice been dropped with uppercuts and his punch resistance had gone. Whyte was chasing Fury for ages before then. AJ wanted Wilder for years. Wilder turned down stupid money to avoid AJ from Dazn. Wilder is a manufactured myth. Not the first HW to be so, but certainly the biggest hype job I've ever seen. And I've been watching since the 70's.

Not too many people picked Parker to win. If you go back through all the predictions on KZbin nearly all the experts were picking Wilder by KO. The good thing about this is that we can now all move on from years of listening about a possible fight between AJ and Wilder.

[@UncleTermite]

There are no experts bc that means you have to be a know it all and that’s laughable when someone calls themselves one . All the Experts also picked Wilder in the first Fury fight they even had a panel of them on stage about 7 of them giving their opinions from Cooney to Bowe filling all top heavyweights throughout the yrs and not one picked Fury or gave him a chance even in a draw he should’ve won and the funny thing was almost all of them threw shade on A.J like sheep .

You don't think properly. You think AJ's head is madebof steel? If Wilders hand hits AJ of course he would fall. Just use your head man. Why would AJ's head all of a sudden be as strong as Supermans, when Wilder has hit people down. Don't be foolish.

Wilder is great at knocking out bums, cab drivers, construction workers etc. You can't teach this old dog new tricks. Wilder cannot box, live with that, he can't.

Wilder used to be the Boogie man. His fights were entertaining and violent. I always hoped he would get better fundamentally but he didn’t . I always rooted for him simply because he was an American heavyweight champ and it was nice to have hope with that right hand to bring all the belts to the USA someday. I think he genuinely wanted the toughest challenges he could find. He definitely has heart. AJ on the other hand has all the fundamentals and I feel it was his heart that was always in question. All that being said , I knew Wilder wasn’t going to do well in this fight. Joseph Parker is a world class boxer and a cerebral fighter with great coaches . I personally found it sad to see Wilder loose by such a wide margin but he needed that.

Wilder was always overhyped and totally protected from anyone could could fight back. He was never the world champion. NOt only did he caefully avoid Wladimir KLitschko he never even mentioned his name. He avoided Joshua like the plague and only picked Fury because he was 100% convinced he was utterly washed-up and shot. He lost to every half decent fighter he faced.

AJ has “no heart” and is “chinny” have got to be some of the laziest, bias, false narratives in boxing. Dude is willing to fight and rematch anyone and has never been KO’d. He even took Klitschko’s best shot and got up off the canvas to win.

[@whokilledjr3719]

⁠@@babyting395boxing fans say that for a reason and there is some truth. Take how wilder in his 2nd fight with fury was getting ugly bashed and complained about getting pulled early. In his third fight he similarly got smoked, but he went out on his shield. Many legendary boxers, Ali, Frazier, Ryle, shavers, foreman went through tooth and nail wars and Joshua simply doesn’t have that kind of dog in him. Contrast that with His first fight against usyk where he backed off instead of fighting bigger. He also went down multiple times to Ruiz who isn’t a power puncher. Another way of saying it is he simply isn’t perfect and has his deficiencies, something that hardcore Joshua fans won’t admit. That’s not to say he isn’t a fantastic boxer, which he obviously is and boxing certainly is better off for having him. His criticism is a fact of fans comparing his stature to the greats and people are going to point out where he falls short by comparison.

Meanwhile Wilder out here getting dropped by “pillow fisted” Fury (Wilders own words). Wilder is probably the most protected champion of our generation, there’s clearly a reason why. AJ isn’t perfect and is probably the 3rd best heavyweight right now, but to say he’s “chinny” or has “no heart” is just straight up disingenuous.

[@whokilledjr3719]

@@babyting395 it’s disingenuous to think those efforts could compare to the kind of dog showed by past legends and fights. Against Ruiz he was still quite lucid and gave up. Did you see his expression when he lost to usyk 1??? He received one knockdown by Klitschko and recovered well, but to compare that to the kind of heart shown by past legends, are you really being serious? Have you seen the thriller in Manila where Frazier was spitting out blood consecutively for the last few rounds? Even wilder all bloodied up but giving it his all in the fury 2 fight when it was obvious he was well and truly getting bashed?

[@houseonthehill9393]

Big respect to Teddy atlas I take back what I said about him not liking wilder. The guy can’t fight if you paid him.

[@saberxebeck]

More proof that wilder's coaches were right to throw in that towel against fury. He's not been the same since "going out on his shield" in the 3rd fight

[@robertblake1228]

Name me one world level boxer that Wilder ever did beat.

[@monsterman7721]

Wilder was never a boxer he has one punch and he won a belt and made millions of dollars with it.

[@BoyDanny93]

These haters can't comprehend that. Not only Deontay started pro boxing late, he never showed any type of potentials of becoming a good boxer in the beginning. He use a gift God gave and made the best out of it

[@SteveSmith-qo8mm]

Would have loved to see a Wilder trained by Teddy from a kid.

[@malhotraroger9106]

Just remember, Teddy’s predictions are sometimes correct .😊

[@joewhite22]

Wilder is just a bum with a super weapon. Americans in particular overrated him cause he was one of their own but the truth is he was never very good.

[@thycircle79]

There's no " super weapon mate, the whole narrative was fake. Grace and peace

[@joewhite22]

@@thycircle79 He obviously has exceptional power which stands him above the average bum, but against decent opponents they'll figure out ways to get around him, just as Parker did.

He ain’t never been the same since that loss against tyson

[@billdoor3140]

No he's simply never been good against elite boxer's that's why he's ducked the lot of em

[@malikebennett2092]

Stop saying he ducked them Champ cause before he lost they ducked him to

[@orionfoote2890]

I don't know, I just think Parker & the team had their strategy bang on for this fight. I must admit I thought there was every chance Joe might get chinned early in the fight, but after a few rounds it became clear that they had done their homework and had Wilder's number.

[@SuperDamon10]

When the hell was this fight?

[@johnmicallef2627]

What wilder left behind was equal to what he's never had proved by each worthwhile opponents he has fought have each one given him a pounding there's never been a heavy weight champion that would not of beaten wilder at any stage of his career

[@dilligaf2386]

Wilder knows because of the fury fights all the heavyweights know now go forward when you fight wilder and put it on him. If fury can take his preparation seriously he beats everyone. I would say wilder is not a heavyweight now. 6ft 8 and 15 stone to small he should get on Dianabol bulk up a bit like the others.

[@JC_Dean]

Wilder forgot that there’s a jab allowed in boxing. But he didn’t forget about the bag he got. 🥊🥊🥊

[@kylerruby887]

Ken be cracking me up but no Tyson Lewis

I just wanna see how the WBC will keep him as Number 1 after that.

[@Marius_vanderLubbe]

Wilders footwork is hilarious.

[@dannyjacobson1963]

wilder can do everything that’s why he’s one ov the best ever

[@geraldmoore1836]

Could be right I agree luky but still a dangerous right hand deadly

[@gart9680]

Parker dominated Wilder because he's by far a better boxer. Wilder is the worst technical heavyweight champ of all time. He only took on Fury because he thought Fury was finished.

[@wiz3518]

It's only Americans who think it was a upset the rest of the world woke up to wilder years ago its their last hope in the hw division

[@TBrl8]

Deontay wilder cannot box! He has the worst footwork of any top level heavyweight in HISTORY. There are 8 year olds who just started boxing who have better footwork and boxing fundamentals.

[@fermingarrick2120]

What you think Parker vs Cheng..

[@mrdixon3765]

Wilders never been the same since being Knockdown by Harold Sconiers 😂😜

[@nigelangel6659]

Yep…. Anyone seen that video since….. Nope !!

[@khashaiar]

Wilder has lost his FEROCITY , and he showed that night vs. Parker . Wilder didn't even try enough to throw punches, let alone landing ! Wilder also looked like a man SCARED 😱 walking backward, and his facial expression was a timid guy. Ever since Wilder made huge money and also took beating from Fury, he has LOST HIS FEROCITY. What fight did you watch, Teddy, only the 12th round ?

[@mileymarielow3850]

Wilder getting beat is a Godsend for AJ. Before last night AJ seemed almost scared to face Wilder so we then saw a loose AJ get back to something resembling what he once was

[@akalksander9184]

Because power is the last thing that goes out in a boxer & in wilders case it's the great equalizer. A less notable guy KOd parker & the favorable guy couldn't deliver.

[@davidwoods9446]

Unbelievable, what happens when AJ hits Wilder on the chin, you never present that scenario, and we all know why.

[@Azad_2024_]

Tbf let's not pretend AJ survives the reverse and getting a hit clean from wilder. It's a different fight tbh. AJ is much more powerful than parker, but parker is more elusive imo. Wilder could and would land on AJ imo. AJ gets caught by fast hands. Got completely bamboozled by usyk it was almost laughable. That's why the wilder fight is still a decent fight to make imo. Styles make fights.

[@davidwoods9446]

@Azadpark Wilder would go down like a sack of shi* if AJ lands on him, but hey ya still talking about Bronze bummers right hand. AJ would annihilate him in a couple of rounds. Wallin is more elusive than Wilder so it's lucky for Wilder that he lost.

[@Azad_2024_]

@@davidwoods9446 Calm down pal. Wilder has a strong chin. AJ went down like a sack of sh** against Roley poley ruiz. Anyway I think it makes sense for AJ to fight wilder now as he has his confidence back and would probs beat him and make a ton more money than the Hrgovic fight, which is a more dangerous fight at this time.

[@davidwoods9446]

@Azadpark Now I know this might come as a shock to you, but AJ was hit on the temple, not the chin by a guy who knocked down Ortiz a number of times. The so-called bogeyman. Another man with so-called pillow fists knocked Wilder down a number of times in the 2nd fight and the third fight, but you say Wilder has a good chin. Your logic makes about as much sense as Wilders rants about AJ.

[@jusjay3834]

Oddly enough Wilder got better and leaned on skill his third fight vs Fury. If he kept LEARNING and putting in the effort of learning and kept the weight on I think he would have done better. But man all he really relied on was a right hand and his explosiveness

[@dlmullins9054]

Wilder will always be dangerous, but he never learned much about boxing. He knocked out all the hand picked tomato cans early in his career and that is how he got all those knockouts. They had no clue how to avoid the Wilder right. I noticed one thing early in his career, and that is how he would back up all the way to the ropes when an opponent even feinted a punch.

[@edmundtapfumaneyi6500]

Come on I used to see Ted Atlas as good analysts but on this one he said nonsense. Wilder has fought Fury, Parker, and Otiz only 3 credible opponents. Who else has Wilder fought. He has been a protected fighter with no boxing skills. Otiz could have knocked him out had it not been for the doctor. Joshua beats Wilder all day long. Wilder is a one trick pony.

[@keithkellogg5325]

Teddy then why did you pick wilder?

[@miguelalves7333]

Wilder is the most unskilled boxer I've seen. No footwork, no head movements,no combinations and swings like an amateur. Always relying on landing that power punch.

[@cerocatorce9806]

I always thought teddy atlas is the trainer that Wilders need

[@UncleTermite]

If you know Teddy you know Wilder would be to sensitive to remotely have a guy like that training him he’d take a mental mugging and Teddy would lose his cool real fast in the corner with that guy it would be a mental meltdown for Wilder .
