Terrible fight, Takam was always going to win this fight easily.

New opponent named for Deontay Wilder

Undefeated heavyweight world champion Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder (37-0, 36 KOs) will now defend his title against unbeaten contender Gerald “El Gallo Negro” Washington (18-0-1, 12 KOs) in the main event of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX and FOX Deportes Saturday, February 25, from Legacy Arena at the BJCC in Birmingham, Alabama.

The opponent change comes after Wilder’s original foe, Andrzej Wawrzyk, tested positive for a banned substance.

“I was disappointed when Wawrzyk tested positive for a banned substance and wasn’t available to fight. I didn’t want to disappoint my loyal fans in Birmingham, who have always supported me,” Wilder said.

“I know that I’ll be fighting Deontay Wilder in his backyard, but that adds more excitement to the fight for me. I’m looking forward to going to Birmingham and coming away with a victory just like I did in my last fight there,” Washington said.

Well, that's not quite as terrible as I predicted for wilder.

[diehard]

I actually think Washington is a better fight.

[Msreef]

Yeah much better fight.

After watching Mansour/Washington replay- cant help but feel Washington is quite lumbering and is a KO in the making. Kinda looks like a poor man's Ibeabuchi

David Price just got STOPPED by Christian Hammer in the 6th round. Hammer with 48% KO rate.

Prices jab still has nothing on it. Condition is no better. This one went a little longer and so we got to see that his movement is terrible too. Hammer would back up onto the ropes, start moving sideways and Price would rotate ONTO the ropes. Even when Price was winning engagements he was going backwards and ending up on the ropes where he got battered.
