    Hunter is more than capable of outboxing Wilder, but if the naturally bigger Wilder lands his atomic bomb of a right hand, I don't see Hunter getting up.

    Good fight actually.

    I hope Hunter bums him to death - but not in a gay way.

    Hunter beats the hell out of and stops Wilder.

    Is this Wilder handicapped by the burden of a cosplay costume or not?

    Lol here we go. Every fighter beats Wilder on paper and yet only the best heavyweight in the world was able to do it and he nearly failed as well. Hunter has done what to prove he's better than Wilder exactly? Lose to povetkin ?

    He beat Povetkin and went toe to toe with him, something that nobody else did except Whyte. Wilder's best win is an ancient overrated Ortiz, it's not like he amassed some great names and beat them

    Hunter might be able to have some success with the blueprint Fury put out in the rematch, although he lacks the size, strength and general ring craft to execute it as effectively. I think Wilder would catch him at some point and get him out of there.

    I mean... Wilders faced NFL rejects, glass jawed football hooligans, special ed teachers, French pastry chefs, beached whales and geriatric grandpas. Not like we've actually seen him in with anyone who posed a real threat prior to Fury other than Ortiz who was clearly past his best....

    I actually don't like Hunter's chances in this one. Part of Fury's strategy was being significantly bigger than Wilder, which Hunter is not. Hunter's also not a one-hitter quitter. He can dance and jab and outbox Wilder all day, and even land some vicious shots, but I don't see him being able to avoid the right hand forever, especially with Wilder being longer-limbed.

    Glass jawed Szpilka did for the better part of 9 rounds, French pastry chef lasted almost 11 rounds, special ed teacher Molina lasted into the 9th, washed up beach ball Arreola lasted into the 8th. Hunter is way better than all of those guys. He's better than Ortiz too. Hunter will take the fight to Wilder though... He won't just outbox him. Despite being the smaller man he will used tactics not unlike Furys. Wilder won't have room to breathe.

    Hunter wins every round but gets iced cold in the second half of the fight, Wilder will land at some point and when he does it’s night night, Hunter definitely has an upset win in him though, I really rate him.
