Why do they want us to believe Wilder won the first fight?

Ive gotta give it to Wilder. He is tough as nails. He's got that Rocky Balboa chin.

He took multiple clean shots. I thought he was done for 5 rounds ago. But he kept finding a way to remain standing and to keep punching. Respect.

Fury otoh. He has the physique of Homer Simpson. But he is a great boxer. He outboxed the hell out of Wilder 2 times in a row. I didn't see fight 1, so I can't speak on that. But this fight 100% solidified who is the better boxer, bar none.

Why can't Wilder get in shape?

He's ripped but has Jello legs and is a sloth after 3 rounds. Never any spring in his step. Just sloths around the ring like he lost his SCUBA oxygen tank.

Is it about the big fat man leaning on him. Closing the distance?

The last 2 fights Wilder has no energy after round 3. He just stmbles around the ring waiting to counter with a haymaker. Dude cannot fricking box...and go the distance. This was close but he was a dead man walking from round 8 on. His corner was clueless.

Why can't the #1 contender get first class training, conditioning and expert cornermen? Who know what round it is, you know, hard stuff like that.

Later interviews...from Fury.

"I'm sure he'll make more excuses, he's done, I'd be surprised if he ever boxes again".

So Wilder actually told told Fury after trying for a handshake, "no I don't respect you.'

Wilder for all the goodwill is coming off like a punk again.

After 3 losses?

What is this about? I don't think Fury is telling any tales out of school that Wilder is a massive sore loser.

Most underrated aspect of the fight (maybe it’s discussed in this thread, I didn’t read it all) was that short piston left hand he kept popping wilder with relentlessly.
That neutralized Wilder’s right hand and any forward movement. Was vicious.
The commentators never mentioned it and, in fact, went waaaaay overboard hyping up anything Wilder did in the fight.
Sure he was a gamer but all this post fight praise should be out of pity not reality.
