    Wilder is perhaps no longer afraid of Whyte, since he saw him KOed by Povetkin.

    Maybe this fight can happen in the latter part of 2021.

    Whyte is still afraid of Luis Ortiz apparently.

    50/50 imo. Wilder only has a right hand albeit devastating. But whyte is a hell of alot more technically sound and no doubt has the better resume. Wilder had alot of trouble with Artur Szpilka and im telling you now Whyte alot better than Artur Szpilka and hits harder. But Wilder landed a right hand after getting outboxed by Ortiz so he could do the same thing to Whyte

    No idea, I favour gong squad.

    Whyte likes to hold his feet and box at range

    Which is everything Wilder has spent his career enjoying, sitting back at distance sipping pina colada's before slamming his right hand into your noggin.

    This fight is fought and lost in the mid stages. It's a fairly good boxing match early.

    Whyte then slows and loses some composure, Wilder doesn't really slow and his composure stays the same unless he gets badly rocked.

    Whyte's pressure game isn't as good as I think he thinks it is.

    With Wilder it's always the battle of the half step in being able to engage him before he disengages defensively. Mid fight I think it turns bad for Whyte. Can't stand around with Wilder. You put a high guard up & try to take a break he will punish you for it.

    Wilder would lay him out like Breazeale

    Both can KO each other if they land flush. Wilders chin is packing slightly more glass than Whyte’s.

    Id probably say whytes the one packing more glass. But whytes likely better than anyone wilders ever beaten so its a 50/50 fight to me

    Wilder shatters that jaw which after two highlight reel ko appearances is already on its last legs

    Whyte has been ktfo by a 40 year old contender but still has a better chin than Wilder how

    I think the height, reach, power and stamina advantages Wilder has would see him win by stoppages. Been a few times Whyte has gassed and been hurt/dropped/stopped. Against Wach, Povetkin, Rivas, Parker, Joshua that I can think of off the top of my head.

    Whyte would probably have his moment or two early on but I think Wilder probably takes this if the Fury fight didn't ruin him.

    We gonna pretend that uppercut wouldn’t have put Wilder into a deep coma and knocked out his glass jaw bro marsellos from just watching it from the crowd?

    I think although he'd be outboxed and behind on points, Wilder KOs Whyte in a late round.

    Do you think Wilder would have taken that uppercut from Povetkin?

    I think if you tried to design the best opponent that Wilder would consistently devastate you'd get Whyte.

    It's just a question of if the same old Wilder is still around. Wish they just do this one first I want to see it regardless of outcome.
