    Both can throw bombs. Deontay has his murderous left hook while Ruddock has his "smash"

    I think the question should be the other way round.

    He'd have more of a chance imo. Ruddock showed he could rise from heavy shots, Wilder never did.
    Can't see this fight going past 4, with Ruddock winning.

    If Ruddock could up the Ortiz pressure game on Wilder, we see a stoppage. Wilder could end this with every good punch too of course.

    I think a boxing IQ test should be mandated before posters are allowed to migrate from General to here.

    Wilder's murderous left hook?

    Let me tell you about Oscar's killer right cross!

    And to answer the question, Ruddock would lay Beyonce out.

    Nice question. Wilder never beat a hard puncher, he never went the distance with a hard puncher.
    Prime Ruddock was the shorter but heavier fighter with a very muscular massive body and Wilder looks too skinny compared to
    Donovan. Ruddock was the tougher also and i can't imagine a Wilder win . How ?

    Ruddock looked like a pro fighter in the ring,Wilder does not.
    Ruddock lands the "Smash" early and Wilders spindly legs
    go in every direction except the right one. The Razor early.

    Watching Lennox-Rudduck you have to pick Wilders lazer zapping nuclear bomb of a right hand to get the job done. Wilder isn't as skilled as Lennox, but the right hand goto Rudduck and I think Wilders does the same
