Usyk was talking about taking on Wilder as soon as 2018. I give 2018 Wilder a 10% punchers chance. Unlike Joshua, Wilder would just let his right hand go over and over again. Usyk won't manhandle him the way Fury did. Still, Usyk is just too skilled. I give peak Wilder a 10% punchers chance. Usyk outboxes him to a comfortable decision.
Now? Wilder lands fewer punches on Usyk than he did on Parker. Usyk uses his head as a speed bag until someone stops it. Or Deontay says something stupid in the lead up ala the cheating allegations from Dubois' camp and Usyk takes him out early.
Wilder gets outboxed all the times and finds a Hail Mary usually, I’m not saying he’ll win but if he lands it, it’s lights out for the Crimea man
Now folks, let's get this cleared. Alright. Deontay Wilder is one of the heaviest hitters of all time.....Luis Ortiz. Somebody bigger than Usyk. Who is also a southpaw....Somebody who had an extensive amateur background WAS dropped by Wilder in both fights, and subsequently knocked out. Based on this...I don't see how Usyk can defeat a Wilder. My money is on Deontay Wilder with a single right hand knockout victory. Remember the opinion you should follows should be your own. Consider this advice from a complete stranger online.
Wilder's perfection for one second would not work against Usyk, Usyk is too good a fighter to allow that, Usyk stops him...
If Usyk beats him and Parker, that's every relevant heavyweight of the last 10 years he'll have defeated. If he wanted to do it as a last fight, I'd be ok with it.
Prime Wilder might have a small chance of winning considering his KO power but Usyk really should outbox him winning every round comfortably to a very wide decision - the difference in technical ability is so great here. I think it would have been interesting how Usyk would have approached this fight on a tactical sense - whether he would be an aggressive counter puncher or he would fight off the back foot.
I know Wilder is completely shot but it would be truly special to beat every relevant HW in this era.
Prime for Prime Wilder has a 20% punchers chance. Now I think Usyk would make him cry after less than a round.
