    Frazier stopped him in four. Foreman stopped him in three. Wilder stops him right around there.

    Wilder by decision, Chuvalo was easy to outbox.

    Chuvalo stops him. That chin takes Wilder's best, and George works the body and breaks his chin. Chuvalo may have been hard to out-box, but Wilder's out-boxing skills are awful, and someone who solely relies on power won't get very far vs Chuvalo.

    And I said this before Wilder lost to Fury.

    I reckon this fight would look like a more competitive version of Wilder v Duhaupas, that ends with Wilder stopping Chuvalo in the 12th

    Chuvalo is bad matchup for Wilder - lot of matchups are, but chuvalo had great chin - and when attacked often fired back - Wilder would be countered in exchanges and I doubt he would handle it well.
    If Chuvalo’s chin wasn’t so good - I would pick Wilder as Chuvalo was of foot and easy to hit - would of played like Wilder Breazale. But being that his chin, was what it was, and Wilder is sloppy - this isn’t foreman or Frazier getting you out of there, Chuvalo takes his best fires back and stops wilder in an exchange

    If Wilder could box I’d take him to win a UD.
    However as he can’t and he ain’t knocking Chuvalo out, then he gets worn down and stopped late.

    Wilder becomes the first guy to drop Chuvalo for the count (assuming the ref doesn't stop it) and believe me I'm no fan of Wilder.

    Wilder would bust up George s face imo. Leading to a 7th or so round stoppage.

    Wow, i'm in minority defending Wilder? What happened?:D

    Funny enough that some people pick Chuvalo to beat Wilder, but don't like idea of Jeffries beating him.

    He did outbox Stiverne to win his title.

    Anyway I would pick Wilder by KO between 1-6

    Didn't you say that Wilder was the greatest heavyweight of all time?? That sounds like something you would say!

    Chuvalo was stopped in a few rounds by the best two punchers he faced. He was also out-boxed by Pete Rademacher and Box Cleroux, amongst many others. Wilder by TKO unless he breaks his hand on George's hard head, in which case Wilder UD.
