    The Golota that boxed Riddick Bowe into retirement up against today's Wilder?? Who comes out of this on top??

    In my opinion this would be a fun fight but THAT Golota who was focused, in shape, sharp and mean would have drilled Wilders skull apart and stopped him before 5. Too strong, too good a jab, combos too good and hit too hard for Wilder to stay upright for very long. But I've heard different opinions on this matchup.

    Who do you got and why?

    1996 Golota would dominate today's heavyweight landscape.

    Bowe would exit the ring and run for the locker room on the first big right hand Wilder landed.

    That's until he finds a way to foul himself out.

    Golota knocks out Wilder, but not before he castrates him.

    I'll take the counter view on this one. Golota could be intimidated. I think Wilder lands something hard and either sleeps Golota outright or Golota gets hit hard once or twice and fouls out very shortly thereafter.

    That version of Golota would've destroyed Wilder

    Provided Golota doesn't go full spaz he would have the ability to put a rather painful beating on Wilder.

    Golata is better than anyone Wilder has fought and had the jab to compete with Wilder's physical advantages

    Wilder may hit hard enough to stop golota but I don't see him boxing golota

    who is better in your eyes, Wilder or grant

    Golota looked terrible in his last fight, but he would still be the best fighter Wilder has faced.

    LoooL!! :D I don't think Wilders chin would hold up long enough for the low blows.
