    29-0 with his biggest fight being an ancient Liakovich who has been past it since 2006 and coming off two KO losses to boot. That's as pathetic of a record as can be really.

    See it's ****s putting **** like this which ruins the forum. Wladimir had already beaten Martin earlier in his career, in all likliness he was a late replacement.

    Look at Wladimir's first 27 fights, there are a lot of tough opponents in there, he even had his loss to Ross Purity in his first 27 fights.

    Look at Wilder's 27th fight. Matthew Greer, he is no ****ing better mate. Only time Wilder fights guys with winning records is when they're about 40 and inactive, look at his last 10 opponents, it is anything to shout about especially for a boxer who went to the Olympics.

    How old is Wilder?28?If he was British,people would be saying he was a young prospect with the obligatory "at heavyweight".I agree he's not beat anybody really dangerous,but he seems to be fairly on target.Can obviously punch,and looks in shape,unlike some of the others.A decent prospect,at least.

    his PR people have made a great job of making his woman beating scandal go away....where as his promotional team have done a horrible job in finding him a living breathing male opponent

    Chisora would shatter Wilders glass jaw. He didnt want the fight.

    Say what you will about Chisora. But he will show up to fight and bring it. Wilder prefers to fight old, slow, washed up, punch drunk, coming off many knock out losses bums.

    Why do you Brits rate Del Boy so high? He sucks. He is British level. He needs to stay over there having domestic fights.

    well if he's allowed to travel now, he'll have no problem answering Chisora's call after he's finished with Gerber.

    that's if he has the stones.

    no one is saying he's a great or anything, Rico.

    he's a solid guy who brings it every time. what is there not to like? oh wait, sorry. it's him being a Brit isn't it? ;)

    do something better with your time will you.

    he was too good for Helenius. he was too much for the weak minded Yank. and he gave Vitali a hard dust up.

    he's earned his stripes. and if Wilder ever gets the courage to fight him, he'll put stripes all over that Mother ****er and send him packing. :deal

    You & your obsession with Wlad :lol:

    When Windmiller actually starts fighting and beating someone with a pulse then you can maybe start making comparisons to contenders, not long reigning world champs :cool:

    Could it possibly be that to fight Chisora in the UK Wilder would have needed to apply for a special temporary work visa for athletes? And that he's now in the UK only on some Tourist Visa Waiver entree thing.

    Then the question is "well wouldn't he also need that visa to spar VS Haye? and the answer to that question might be that he's either A. Doing it for free or B. The ammount he's receiving for it is so low that they're simply paying him under the table for his work.

    If I'm right then regardless of whether Wilder is getting paid or not he might be breaking UK laws regarding doing unpaid work while on a tourists visa................ then again all of this is just guessing and I really don't know a thing about UK visa requirements or conditions or how Wilder entered the UK.

    wilder is going to be a main attraction. he doesn't need to go to the uk to fight chisora. chisora needs to come here. he'll get ktfo'd when he does.

    The judge didn't allow for Wilder to be able to travel due to the nature of his offense...
