You get a better look at Wilder with a better camera angle than his last fight. Full Fight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-8XhVawKKo Highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXQqOnz4CRI&feature=related Deontay Wilder (2-0) fights this Saturday against Richard Greene Jr. (1-1) just a week after his last fight.
That looked terrible. WHo is training this kid? He seems to have the atheltisism but is too show boaty and teqnically flawed
Mark Breland. I agree that he has some flaws but it is only his 2nd fight. He carries his left too low; that can be fixed. I like how he keeps his range and doesn't get careless when he hurts his opponent. He has a nice right hand and seems to have legitimate power in both hands. He has great speed for a man of his size.
Not impressed at all really. I don't want to add to this fighter's hype train(Fury's) but to make a comparison here is Tyson Fury's second fight [YT]62fHZuUnkFc[/YT] He's facing much better opposition and he looks a much more rounded fighter(and I don't mean his flab, which he has been losing with each fight). Fury wasn't good enough to make the Olympics either, although the other British fighter at the weight was pretty decent but still. Big improvement needed from the American prospect.
Fury has all the tools to make some impact...Size ,speed, power...With time we'l see if he can put all of this together....
Steffen Kretschmann is a 6'5 southpaw who much better technically than either Fury or Wilder... Honestly , With all of those clean blows landed Fury seems to have poor power for his size. Watch Kretschmann's punches on the same opponent. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rg-Yvb74Mc
Maybe he's better technically. Wilder has better handspeed, footspeed and power. Wilder won the bronze in the olympics and is a two-time golden gloves champ and he only started boxing 4 or 5 years ago.
Kretschmann is hardly a new comer like Wilder as he is 28 and has been boxing for 13 years in all. This guy gets hit way too much and has poor defense, somebody that has an extensive amatuer background should not have bad habits like this. He has nice power and decent handspeed though.
