    That Wlad opponent and this guy are nowhere near the same level. I don't know why you're bringing it up either way, neither guy is acceptable really. I was making a point about Wilder and his opponent so maybe cool it with the irrelevant ****, yeah?

    You may be right. I don't have particularly high hopes for him, but time will tell. As far as the comparison....those fighters were also fighting far more often. It seems heavyweights today simply don't want to fight more than 2 or 3 times a year...almost like a trend. Hard to blame Wilder for taking it so slow when the boxing world allows it. Guys today are allowed to build their careers against soft comp and than cash out.

    If neither is acceptable than how is it irrelevant? Its a valid point, I'm so very sorry you don't like the comparison.

    When will you guys learn that fighters praising other fighters doesn't mean jack **** half of the time? Heck, Wlad praised Chazz Witherspoon!

    You can bring up any boxer in the history of boxing and you bring up Wlad? I don't like Wlad, I think he is a boring fighter who can't fight on the inside or in middle range. I don't care to talk about him. What is the relevance? There are plenty of olympic fighters who fight poor opposition when they turn pro. Usually they can move their feet and throw a punch back though.

    I mentioned that it is a disgrace for Wilder as a bronze medallist to be fighting that sort of opponent and showboating. It's hard to even call that guy an opponent, I've never seen something like that before. Wilder would've been better off fighting an amateur novice who could at least move.

    All true.

    Having said that, Scott would be a GREAT opponent for Wilder right now:

    First, Scott has a fairly good name & ranking, yet is not a very dangerous puncher. So, Wilder could make a few mistakes, (a likely scenario) yet probably not pay dearly for it.

    Second, Scott has really good defense, so he might be able to frustrate Wilder's devastating offense, and Wilder DESPERATELY needs this. Something has to shock this guy into reality.

    Third, if Wilder should get past Scott, then GBP would have some juice with which to "force" more good opponents to face Wilder, and the experience of getting past Scott would greatly benefit Wilder in those future bouts.

    Huh? Wilder's been fighting cans, but he's been fighting them 5-6 times per year for over 4 years.
    "Taking it slow" ? I don't get your point here.

    The point still stands. I used Wlad because he is the current heavyweight champion. History is full of these examples though.

    Ahh, now I gt it! You were just talking about Wilder so it doesn't count anytime any other fighter has fought a can. That's just brilliant! :yep

    Point is that history proves plenty of fighters were still fighting stiffs after the same amount of fights.

    Yes I was talking about Wilder. "Oh let's examine every olympic fighter in history and look at their opponents, it has nothing to do with Wilder but maybe we can excuse it if somebody else has fought a **** opponent. Oh hey forget about that, let's just look at Wlad for some reason. ****, Wlad fought a bad opponent, I guess that means Wilder can fight an obese man who can't move and punch back while he showboats".

    :patsch Brilliant logic ******. I was talking about Wilder, what don't you understand and what are you bringing up Wlad for? Your avatar explains a lot.

    Lol, what does my avatar prove, that Wlad also fought opponents totally not on his level on his way up after medaling in the Olympics? Face it son, you tried to make a stupid point about Wilder and weren't smart enough to realize this has been done by hundreds of other fighters in all weight classes. Dismiss yourself, you're a ****ing idiot! :yep

    :lol:
    What does me saying that it's a disgrace for Wilder to fight a fat comatose man and showboat have to do with any other fighter? Your avatar and you bizarrely bringing up Wlad for no reason shows that you have a strange fetish for the Klits :yep
