    Wilder. And right now still Wilder. Wilder is still one of the hardest punchers if not the hardest puncher in History. I think if he lands on Usyk, and he will land on Usyk at some point, it’s over.

    IF HE LANDS :eek:

    Imma gonna go out on a limb here and say that Wilder would be made to look like a spastic by Usyk. Those shots telegraphed from outer space wouldn't worry Usyk too much.

    Usyk by 12 round schooling Wilder has lost multiple rounds to B and C level type fighters.

    Wilder is yet to beat any top class Heavyweight apart from an old Ortiz who's also overrated his best win is over Jennings, Martin.

    Shot old delboy chisora and mentally shot gun shy josh had no problems landing on USKY. Wilder lands on every man he gets in with. Absolutely nothing to suggest a little midget feather fisted cruiser with three opponents at heavy can take Wilder's power.

    Wilder KO. Same as he KOs every man in history not named Fury (unless he gets Fury IV then he finishes the job imo).

    Unlike AJ/Chisora, Wilder has only one punch Usyk has to avoid..the right hand..anything else he has is utterly irrelevant

    Chisora swarmed Usyk in the early rounds throwing alot of punches early on Wilder doesn't fight like that, plus Chisora landed very little cleanly vs Usyk.

    Joshua is a better boxer than Wilder and throws punches with better technique, the few punches Joshua did land who is a big puncher himself. Never bothered Usyk in the slightest apart from body punches which seems to be a little weakness in Usyk's game, but Wilder isn't noted for his body punching.

    Wilder is a very hard hitter but again as I keep saying hes not beat any elite Heavyweights apart from an old Ortiz.

    Dont think Usyk would be able to avoid Wilders bombs for 12 rounds, therefore the pick is Deontay by KO

    Wilder has never beaten anybody anywhere near Usyks level. Wins over the likes of Szpillka and Gerald Washington aren’t really relevant so there’s nothing to suggest he would win.

    When was Wilder’s prime exactly? And what’s he do during this prime? Or maybe he’s yet to reach his prime.

    And USKY has never beaten anyone near Wilders level. His best win is shot old del or fat Andy’s leftovers.

    Wilders draw against prime undefeated lineal ATG fury is better than any of uskys wins at heavy imo

    Wilder KO's Usyk every day of the week

    & Usyk boxes Wilder's head off every day of the week

    But it's a 12 round fight and Good luck avoiding Wilder for 12 rounds. Requires perfection, which Usyk IS capable of...but unlikely.

    You don't need prime Wilder.

    Wilder will always have a punchers chance, that's it.

    Fury wasn't prime in their 1st fight he'd recently been 100 pounds overweight and was coming back from a long lay off. Also the "Draw" is widely considered a robbery, Fury's peak was the 2nd fight vs Wilder in which he battered him all over the ring. Then Wilder started making lame excuses like his costume was too heavy or that Fury had loaded gloves.

    No doubt Usyk is faster, way more technical and intelligent in the ring, but assuming Wilder will miss 100% of his power shots, the only thing he really is good with, is unrealistic and is stupid. And I doubt Usyk can take much of these, so I am not saying Wilder surely wins, but his chances are pretty high.
