One of the most shocking corner displays I've seen in modern boxing. After the knockdown he slumped down into his corner and got the advice 'Rack up the right hand' How's he gonna pull that off when he keeps getting pushed back into the corner. Absolutely clueless.

On that we agree, they have been stealing a living and when needed let him down badly. I disagree with your assessment of wilders ability though, you don't win a Olympic medal without being able to box. He probably has got so used to relying on that one punch he's got lazy and not put the work into plan b, he like every pundit and armchair expert were expecting a replay of the first meeting and when that didn't happen they were perplexed to the point of paralysis, that ear shot is so hard to recover from as aj found to his cost to, the fact he even got up is deserving of credit in my book and I'm not at all surprised he's triggering the rematch,.you don't become champ by not backing yourself, I think a rematch could be very interesting

By who? Anyone underestimating a Mexican fighter is going to look very silly very soon, not to mention Ruiz has the quickest hands going, especially at the buffet, you've got me at it now
