    Wilder swings at air for five rounds while taking punishment and quits on his stool. He’s never faced a boxer as technical as Usyk. And he (wilder) is as one dimensional as it gets. Easy money for Usyk. Hope we see this one someday. If Usyk beats AJ, he will immediately try to get a fight with Fury. If he wins that one, this might be a good option unless there is a Fury rematch.

    Lots of ifs but I wouldn’t mind seeing this one. It’s boxing so I don’t expect it to happen any time soon but it would be an entertaining fight. Wilder telegraphs that big right but it’s still dangerous. I hope Wilder doesn’t sit around inactive waiting for a big blockbuster fight. He needs to get in the ring again soon. Nothing scheduled as far as I know. Not smart.

    Wilder would always have a punchers chance, but more than likely Usyk wears him down similar to how he did Joshua, but gets the stoppage late in the fight.

    I think Wilder would have a chance as I don't see Usyk KOing him, and Usyk would stay in his range.

    I think Wilder could be the most likely to beat him.

    If I had to beat I'd go with Usyk to hold on for the UD.

    Usyk doesn't have the power to KO wilder.

    The fight may very well be like that until Wilder lands a bomb from nowhere .

    Usyk is younger, fitter and fresher and most importantly, he knows where his feet are at all times and knows how and when to move them according to the moment and same for his hands

    He has the accuracy and timing to constantly land flush on Wilder. He will get pummelled.

    Eh Wilder faced just 1 good guy in the HW division and he drew with him, and lost twice via KO/TKO.
    He never ever beat a top fighter, let alone elite one.

    Based on what exactly anyone give him any chance against elite guy like Usyk ?

    Usyk is by far the better boxer however the only question is what happens if and when Wilder hits Usyk?

    The one thing we have to factor in is that he put that top fighter down 4 times across those fights.

    Yeah, yeah, Fury was down by featherfists in the face of Neven Pajkić and Cunningham.
    If Wilder was actually any good, he would have finish him, as Fury was badly hurt in 2 occasion but that fraud throw wild punches like he is some street gang, absolutely garbage boxer. Zero chance against Usyk. Usyk will put him on the back foot, and Wilder energy(which is all crap) will be gone by 3rd round and probably be KO by the 5-6th.

    God knows I am no fan of Wilder but if I was Usyk’s trainer the one thing to concern me would be Wilder’s power.

    Personally prefer not to be disrespectful about boxers knowing how tough it is myself but I do agree about Wilder’s skills level being agricultural. Amazing he has achieved so much because he probably should have been a basketball player.

    Like he didn't face huge punchers before, right??? Gassiev for example and Murat is 100x time better boxer than Wilder is, and how that fight went?? And i know you are not Wilder fan, but this guy is getting overrated recently forr no good reason.
