:smoke his managers (GoldenBoy Productions) seem to want to Cash-Out their Hype-Job with one title shot! then Wilder can be down-graded to "Stepping-Stone" :yep Mitchell stepped up (kinda) against Witherspoon, GoldenBoy Productions figured that Witherspoon had a Glass Jaw and was a safe opponent since Arreola had destroyed him... but Mitchell was hurt in that fight by the light-hitting Witherspoon... Fighting Banks on HBO was a big mistake, Mitchell was KTFO in 2 rounds... If guys like Banks and Arreola was on Wilder's record, he would have 2 KO defeats!!! Swap Mitchell's opponents with Wilder's and the outcomes would be the same!
:think I betcha instead of Stiverne they'll end up choosing another Butterbean KO victim... to continue the record padding... all the Stiverne, Arreola, and Klitschko's talk is likely just more Hype!!! :dead <--- Wilder in 2014 when he gets tagged by a poorly chosen Tomato Can!!!
:rasta one more thing... they stepped up the competition with Seth Mitchell and paid a price, his 2 fights against Banks and his fight against Arreola didn't make much $$$ and with 2 brutal KO losses he's never getting a title shot now... if they'd kept feeding Mitchell bums, he'd still be un-defeated and people would still be saying he's the next great american hope and like Wilder he could have gotten a big money title shot without having to fight anyone in the top 20 just like how Wilder is possibly getting a title shot off fighting Butterbean type opponents to pad a big record to add to the hype...
but his managment says "NOOOO WAY!!!" it would be a gage, he likes to fight 40+ year olds, a 42 year old Thompson would be a risky fight but if he could KO Thompson easier than Klitschko did twice then it would be impressive... I bet Thompson hits Wilder with counter-shots and drops him or wears him down and stops him on his feet late, will be imbarrassing either way... maybe GoldebBoy Productions will sign Thompson up as their 'American Hope'
The same ones on this board who are hyping Wilder are the same ones who hyped Mitchell. At least Mitchell fought someone who can punch..............Banks was knocked out by Adamek, yet he stopped Mitchell. Mitchell does hit hard and took a chance. Wilder will never take a real chance. I hope Vitali or Vlad fights Wilder very soon............
IT'S TRUE, Mitchell was a total bum but hed still have beaten Harrison, past it Siarhei Liakhovich, etc. He'd probably be 30-0 28 KOs seth micthell got mental hype loool it was hialrious he probably got more hype than wilder is now why has their always gotta be a great black hope why can't the black fans just support Pulev and co, instead of searching for and overhyping bums
Mitchell did punch extremely hard, but when he fought Arreola, well, Arreola has a really good chin, took as huge punch, hardly blinked his eyes and knocked Mitchell out. I would like to see Arreola fight Wilder..............or Jennings/Wilder, Thompson/Wilder, etc.
Bring on Mitchell v Wilder. As bad as Wilder is to you guys, I think he easily KOs Mitchell. Arreola, Thompson, Stiverne that's a different story. Wilder hasn't YET proved he can hang with those guys.
