    Baer kills Wilder, literally kills him. Destruction.
    Inside 2 rounds.

    Wilder easy, windmill right and fall into clinch, easy KO win for Wilder

    Man, two of the fighters I regularly dump on.

    I just don't know.

    If Baer can make the fight close-up, then it's his to lose.

    If he messes around and allows Wilder to dial in his atomic right hand, he might just be in for a rehashing of the Joe Louis experience. I think Wilder has more skill (cant believe I said it) and the power edge but much worse chin. I think the stylistic edge probably favours Baer, since neither of them have great footwork and if Baer wants to fight in the wheelhouse he can probably force that scenario.

    I'll lean towards Baer but if Wilder catches him flush it could easily be a Wilder win.

    This would probably be a very fun fight.

    Exactly my thoughts two fighters that rely purely on puncher.

    Wilder is longer and faster but Baer fought better fighters and more often. I think Baer eats Wilders best shot early and comes back to TKO Wilder round 4
