@kiwiinmelb It's his only way to victory. Many fighters have tried to avoid Wilder's right hand for 12 rounds but he'll catch you eventually with a negative mindset.

Yeah , has to roll the dice and attack him ,

Fa after doing surprisingly well for 6 rounds , has just been dropped twice and looking in big trouble as I’m writing, Sanchez has some nice power .

[African Monkey]

@kiwiinmelb Fa would have won round 6 too if it wasn't for his lapse in concentration by dropping his lead hand.

Jeez, Jai Opetaia is a bad man. V impressive.

[kiwiinmelb]

Dubois v miller was a good watch

Don’t know much about bivols opponent , but looking forward to watching bivol , he’s a class act

[African Monkey]

@kiwiinmelb Arthur is barely British level in fairness. He upset Yarde a little while back and is well schooled with a decent enough jab, but like Bivol, Arthur also lacks a bit of pop.

There are 3 certainties in life. Death, taxes and Dimitrii Bivol winning fights via UD.

Joe up in 6. Discipline.

Watching via match tracker. Any fern updates appreciated too. Sounds like Wilder’s one trick isn’t working as yet.

[MN5]

Sounds like Wilder needs the knockout to take this one. Apparently Parker has won every round.

Watching it and yep Parker fighting very smart. Wilder just waiting for a chance to unload the right, very reactive and no game plan

[MN5]

Apparently Parker has landed some big shots and wobbled Wilder ?

[JK]

Parker had a great round 8 and had wilder in the corner in a bit of trouble. Parker was unloading and landed a couple of rough punches but couldn’t finish him

[scribe]

Stay disciplined and he’s got this. 3 rounds to go

[JK]

Wilder still hasn’t won a round so needs to let go of the hands now

When he misses that big right hand it leaves him open for a counter so hopefully Joe is savvy enough.

JP has already done WAY better than I thought he would.

Wilder just showing how he’s not much of a boxer. Starting to come forward a bit more now though

[JK]

Two rounds to go!

Yeah, is his heroic showing in the Fury trilogy showing up the state of the division for what it is ?

Is Fury really just the best of a pretty ordinary bunch compared to other eras ?

[JK]

Wilder still not done anything. Parker in control and looking confident.

Last round starting and wilder needs to explode or JP is getting a very smart win

I think so.
