    I'd put the odds of Romanev winning the title from Wilder about the same as Craig Payne, Al "Chico" Evans or Henry Tillman lifting the title from Mike Tyson when Tyson was champ.

    Nah. Not that tall of a task. Wilder is no Tyson. But Romanov would be a big dog. Hes not suited for HW.

    The Romanov from the Bracamonte fight gets carried out on a stretcher, and that's if he was fighting Tyson Fury. Can you imagine what Wilder would do to him?

    Wilder remembering that devastating KO would see three of Romanov and would fall down for fear immediately after the classic Michael Buffers announce.

    Had Chisora not been yanked out of the rematch he might have been. He was looking pretty bad when they stopped that fight.

    Romanov going life and death with Barcomonte has the top 20 heavyweights quaking in their boots

    Wilder avoids russians in their prime like the plague, they have skills, Mejidov will KO him for sure.

    Someone with that compact Tyson size and style will be the one to stop wilder, I can’t see anyone with those credentials having a shot at him before he retires.

    whyte and usyk aren’t a million miles away I guess but not good enough

    Fury is more likely to cause a serious injury pecking away at someone than Wilder is with a brutal KO. That's the name of the game. Deaths in boxing usually don't occur from brutal KO's. Although Wilder is pretty dangerous with his tendency to rabbit punch. Don't think there's a worse offender as far as that is concerned among active fighters.
