    Yeah, Cammarelle is a huge waste of potential, it is really a pity he never turned pro.
    1 gold olympic medal (two considering how badly he got robbed at the olympics), 1 silver, and 1 bronze medal.

    Wilder was stopped by a Russian as an amateur. Joshua's been stopped as an amateur as well. People read too much into boxers getting stopped though. I don't really rate Wilder or Joshua, but if you're an inexperienced boxer fighting at a high level, getting stopped doesn't mean you have a bad chin, it usually just means you were fighting at too high a level too early.

    :roll:

    No, against Nichols he slipped, while moving backwards. (Probably why the ref didn't call it a KD, ya' THINK?)

    - And that was way back when Wilder still had problems with his footwork. He a vastly improved fighter today.

    Only idiots and haters keep trying to pretend that was from a punch. There isn't even any debate on this, just watch the video.

    Exactly.

    How many times did Ali go down, both in the Ams & the Pros?

    What a cab driver he turned out to be! A total hype job!

    Cammarelle ain't a issue, he has been standing in Povetkin's shadow for ages and taking about age, he is too old to make a real career at pro-level.

    Why isn't there a "none of them" option?

    Wilder is a goof with no technique, **** defence and a glass jaw who is overhyped because he can knockout bin men, taxi drivers and walmart workers.

    Joshua is a clown with limited skill who shouldn't have won a medal.

    They will both fail.

    Don't rate either guy really, lets be honest Joshua got gifted that gold medal. Wilder looks too sloppy to me, KO waiting to happen

    Not in the Ams he didn't he was knocked out by a Russian cruiserweight, was a big punch to be fair though. How do you think Wilder will get on with Liakhovich?

    The question is who has more potential so there couldn't possibly be a "none of them" option. :think

    Who do you think has more potential than these two?

    A thing to note to everyone who's screaming wilders **** and so on. Wilder is a very YOUNG professional both in terms of age and general experience in the game.

    He's getting along nicely and he's stepping up right now to face a former world champion. Sure the guy he's facing isn't exactly a young dude and he's lost a few times but still.

    When you don't have alot of experience the thing to do is to get more experience simple as that really.

    Good shout, I think Oleksandr Usyk has the most potential.

    LMAO

    That's hilarious.

    Where the hell did they drag up that big tub of goo from? He looks like he'd break into a sweat walking up the stairs.
