    Wardley is powerful but looping and a bit inaccurate. Sanders was a precision power puncher.

    I'm not sure TBH.

    Sanders was definitely more skillful and in regards to the eye test he looks like a better fighter.

    But Sanders got 1 shotted by the likes of Nate Tubbs.

    And lost a war to Hasim Rahman.

    Sanders didn't really prove himself on the world stage outside of his 1 great win vs Wladimir.

    And whilst it was a great win there isn't any other world class Heavyweights he beat so it's hard to rate Sanders in all honesty.

    Sanders could win by TKO being the faster more skillful fighter.

    But Sanders was no defensive wizard and Wardley has the durability to stay in there with Sanders and maybe find a come from behind KO.

    Impossible to predict honestly.

    Yeah. If Sanders had not fought Rahman, I bet people would favor him. Corrie Sanders was good, and I find him entertaining, but gets overrated.

    Although I think Rahman is a better boxer than Wardley.

    Rahman was a sound boxer who was always aiming to land his big punch. It was a bit basic but very sound.

    I'm not sure what Wardley is, or was. A less skillful Wilder maybe.

    Wardley is more like that Browne----remember him? The australian who won the wba title , if memory serves. Very limited and not a guy that was going to rack up title defenses.
