I said Iron Mike before and after watching Wilders boxing display against both Ortiz and Fury, it's clear to me that Wilder would get seriously hurt by a prime Iron Mike. Mike was a better boxer with power in both hands, not just a right.
If Wilder and Joshua are worried about fighting each other then I cant see either taking a fight with Mike Tyson. He hurts both very early, Joshua might last longer but Wilders really ****ed !
Tyson would certainly be outboxing Wilder and outworking him, but Wilder would be dangerous all night, AJ has said he would take away Wilder`s straight right with rights to the body and I feel Tyson`s right hook to the side will be a factor in this one I can see him landing many uppercuts after the right hook and Wilder gasing from the body attack, Wilder was gassing badly vs Fury, TF couldn`t keep Wilder off because he doesn`t have Mie`s power, even though he landed solid shots, so unles Wilder can land the big bombs he landed on Fury Mike will win.
Agreed. Even if Wilder lands his right its not enough, Tyson eats single power shots without a problem !
No way could Tyson take Wilder`s rigts, they are far more powerful than the uppercut theat Buster knocked Mike out with and hits as hard as Smith did who hurt Tyson at the end of their clinch feast.
Tyson imo fought heavier punchers than Wilder, quite a few, its just Wilders fighting cans 99% of the time, his ko's are against poor opposition and his powers become exaggerated.
Wilder might have the size but he doesn't have what it takes to beat Tyson. Tyson is a master at slipping inside the jab, he slipped inside Holmes jab and Thomas' jab with ease, Wilder's weak jab he'll get past easily. Wilder also really isn't a mover, he likes the spread his feet wide and let guys come to him and try and counter. Tyson won't have any difficulty cutting the ring off on Wilder. Wilder has no inside game, he doesn't know how to tie up well, you need to be able to tie up Tyson up close like Holyfield, Lewis and Smith did. So Wilder can't keep him away with the jab, can't stop Tyson getting in close with movement and when Tyson is in close he has nothing the prevent him from ripping his weak guard apart. Question is not if Tyson wins it's how long it takes for Tyson to KO him.
Wilder will dive and take the paycheque. Will be surprised if he doesn't pull out of the fight with some fake injury
