Why do people say Wilder windmills, from what I see, it's crisp combination punching.

    No, that punching technique is horrible.

    I like Wilder and think he's the future, but he needs to shorten up those punches. He might get away with that, but at some point, assuming there is ever a fighter good enough, they're going to slip something inside those windmills and knock him out.

    He looks more like a spastic than a windmill when throwing punches

    MVC isn't this stupid. Nobody could be. Even Wilder admitted that he has a tendency to get wild.

    Those "windmills" are the most destructive force in HW boxing

    They look good if you've never boxed in your life, any street fighter can pull off those windmills.

    I'm more suprised that he hasn't hit himself or the ref when swinging those wild swings and overhands.

    Like the previous poster said he looks like a spastic who went days missing his ADHD medication.

    He usually does throw wide, telegraphed punches, but his hand speed and height have allowed him thus far to get away with it; however, he was throwing better in the Stiverne fight.

    MVC...your act is tired.

    Wilder's punch technique is poor, his footwork is deliberate, he still has a weak chin, and it is now confirmed that his "freaky power" is entirely a myth borne of fighting carnival fat men, zombies, former middleweights, fixed fights, and the previously brain damaged.

    Unfortunately, Bermaine Stiverne could not get rid of this guy since he trained for the fight at the local Golden Corral all-you-can-eat buffet. That allowed you to extend your trolling, but the reality is that Wilder will have no chance what-so-ever should be forced to fight Povetkin, and Wladdy just may permanently injure him.

    Hell, when he signs to defend against Razor Ruddock, Evander Holyfield or Rid**** Bowe, one of them might actually beat him.

    wilder is much like fury. he depends on his size. both aren't half as good as their fan boys make them out, or half as bad as their haters make out. both are still needing a victory over a prime, proven fighter.

    I think you need to rewatch the ending sequence of the fight with A-Farce.

    Wilder's nothing more but a sparring partner for Wlad. Don't like it, then you're not alone, no one likes to hear the honest truth.
