Wilder Vs 90s' Danger men'?

Ortiz was also collecting a pension and being fed by 'Meals-on-Wheels'.

 

He was younger and better than 95 Foreman.

 

Ten defenses? He held a trinket and fought a bunch of average. Moorer won the world title, the lineal title. Wilder never held it. The closest he came was a gift draw. Joshua was doing better work than Wilder. At least he was fighting genuine top 10 heavyweights.

Wilder was Samuel Serrano minus the regaining of the title.

 

Moorer wasn't beating any top ten heavyweights except a half dead Holyfield.

Wilder was 3-0-1 against guys who were among the best in the division before losing his title.

Moorer was a footnote. Wilder is a household name.

 

Before losing his "trinket". At this point Wilder is as much a household name thru ridicule as anything he did in the ring.

 

Is 39 year old Ortiz was very close to doing it, any of these guys could.

 

for sure. but would you pick golota to actually win a fight where getting hit hurts?

 

Mercer beats him for up the full 12 rounds or gets a TKO somewhere down stretch.
Morrison could be 50/50. Its a matter of who lands a fight finisher first.
Tua KOs him. I just don't see any other option.
Golota is weird. He might get blown out early, or he'll put up a real fight. Even if its the second option I still see him self destructing.
Morrer UDs him but not without a few shaky moments that came from overconfidence.

 

Moorer has more skill but gets put to sleep. I’m surprised so many people favor Moorer in this. Out of the fighters listed, I’m the least confident in Moorer.

 

Ray Mercer- Mercer in 5 it’s ugly

Tommy Morrison- Wilder comes back from a kd and flattens tm in 7.

David Tua- Wilder ud

Andrew Golta- Golota in 4

Michael Moorer-Wilder looks horrible then one shot Moorer is done 9 rounds.

If anyone says a prime Ray Mercer gets knocked out, you can automatically disregard their opinion on boxing pre-2010. Mercer had an ATG chin. He took a huge barrage of shots from Damiani, Morrison, Holmes, Holyfield, Lewis (a better puncher than Wilder), and Witherspoon without being dropped once. The only knockdowns of his career came much later. At 41, against Wladimir, he took sustained punishment for six rounds before being dropped by two left hooks that would knock down any heavyweight, probably even McCall. His other knockdown came at 46 against Shannon Briggs, where he was down more from fatigue than damage, as he wasn’t even badly hurt despite Briggs being a hard puncher. Meanwhile, Wilder in his prime was stopped twice by feather-fisted Fury and once against Zhang. Also, Wilder is less of a puncher than Lewis and Wlad, and I hate Wlad more than Wilder (Wilder helped the division post-Wlad more than he hurt it), so don't call me biased.

Wilder wins again against Morrison (60/40 odds) and Moorer (70/30 odds) (who is a better boxer, but styles make fights).

Wilder loses against Golota (60/40 odds), Tua (90/10 odds), and Mercer (80/20 odds).

 

How about the same age, hahaha? "I have eyes."

An old George Foreman would wipe the floor with Deontay Wilder, the immovable object stopping the unstoppable force. I’d say Luis Ortiz has about a 50 percent chance against an old Foreman, though. Also, a “half-dead” Holyfield would still be Wilder’s best win by a country mile.

 

Wilder has a fair chance of beating all of them but Mercer would be the hardest. Iron chin, very determined at his best, good jab. Not a big puncher though, overrated in that respect. Not great stamina either.

Tua was even smaller and slower of foot than Mercer, Wilder has 9.5 inches of height and 14 inches of reach, as well as a lot of speed on Tua, so I'd take Wilder there. Wilder may have to survive a scare but he has good recovery and is hard to stop.

The others are too chinny to be favoured, and in Golota's case too insane.
