    Maybe and it is a big maybe but the fights haven't really lived up to their promise and has possibly played a big part of that.

    Definitely a good display from Joshua think Wallins corner made that call to save their fighter from prospective damage.

    I would have let him go at least couple more rounds.

    Throws it up in the air now with Wilder losing. Looking at what he said I wonder if he might call it a day.

    On Wilder :

    With his comments of how he's looked after his money,maybe this was just a boost my investments fight.

    He needs a couple journeyman fights to get up to par and then decide on a top opponent,that is unless as you

    suggest maybe he'll call it quits.

    Obviously in my opinion AJ is too egotistical to call it until he gets Fury or Usyk to regain his belts.

    This fight card has shown how short of talent we truly are in the heavyweight division.

    And back to your atmosphere remark,when Aj was performing for the crowd their

    was very little response which i deemed odd given his performance in the ring.

    As you said totally different atmosphere in Vegas or London.

    You're right about the division. It's low on quality. If the fights arent real slug fest's like the Fury Wilder trilogy they can and often are quite boring.
    Cruiserweight is much more exciting but doesn't get the coverage or glamour.

    Wilder should have had a tune up fight or maybe two before this. Parker was a bridge too far after being inactive for two years.
    I hope he comes back with renewed enthusiasm. He's a good guy to have in the division but at 38 you wouldn't blame him for wrapping in.

    Apparently he has decided not to retire and return to the ring sometime in 2024.
