Clever move by Haymon getting Wilder vs Thompson on the Khan undercard

I heard Thompson wants nothing to do with Wilder, and they are now looking at Ordinary Harrison, maybe it will generate a bit more as both have olympic medals. I am sure someone can come up with a catchy one liner to sell it, unfortunately not me as I have been at work all night lol

 

Easy work for Wilder.

 

Nice fight - quite looking forward to this one, actually (if it happens).

 

To tell the truth i wouldn't mind seeing wilder in with either big John Mcdermott or Matt Skelton to gauge where he is in comparison to David Price.

 

Either of those guys (as sad as it sounds) are 10x better than any of the stiffs Wilder has beaten.

 

Even Price ? Kelvin was at least close to those guys.

 

Kelvin Price is a nobody. He had a VERY controversial decision win over quitter Tor Hamer, other than that he hasn't done anything. and yes, I think those guys are better than K.Price. Both have done much more in their respective careers than him, AND I think both would beat him.

 

Hmmm. I kinda disagree on the Hamer W but i do agree with you on subject of who has done more.
But still, Price was the first good opponent Wilder faced and he blitzed him with ease.
There is more to Wilder then just his power and chin. He might get knocked out at a higher level but i doubt it will be as easy as crushing a fly.
We really need to see Wilder in the ring with Thompson. Wilder has talent and physical gifts but Thompson has the experience and ring IQ.

It would be a fantastic matchup.
