18th Wilder V Breazeale : Thought and Predictions

wilder wont look good but will stop breeezeele but it wont be as quick as joshua... tko 11

 

I feel this should be a comfortable win for Wilder, but mainly because DB doesn't move his head and someone with speed of hand and foot is kryptonite to him. AJ dominated him through boxing skill, the speed and timing advantage just ensured he basically didn't get touched for 7 rounds. I think if DB struggles to land we'll see a one sided blow out in the first 5 rounds, then the Wilderettes can jump on that and cling to it and proclaim he's better than Joshua lol.

 

He’s just a big punch bag. Pointless fight.

 

I mean, it'll probably be kind fun for Dommy is getting iced in a bad way here. Too easy to hit

 

Should be a good, ugly match up.

I can Wilder winning late on, possibly round 10/11 but being made to look silly for most of the fight.
But then again.... Breazeale's defence isn't the best but he's a big unit with a big heart and it wouldn't surprise me to see a broken Windmill either.

Love to see a DB win though just to open things up in the Division.

 

For the sake of the heavyweight division let’s hope Brazeale wins

 

Would definitely shake things up if DB won. Might be the thing needed to get things moving in the division, much like when Pac lost to Marquez it was only then the Mayweather/Pac fight was made as they had to cash out before everyone lost interest.

This of course is if Wilder wins the rematch which isn't guaranteed and Wilder losing does take some shine off an eventual unification if he does win. If DB wins the rematch then does anyone really think he can beat Joshua with the first fight being so one sided?

So while I think DB winning would be great in the short term in the long term it might not be so great for the division. It would make Joshua/Fury the fight that really matters rather than Joshua/Breazeale. Maybe if Fury beat DB for the WBC belt then unified with Joshua that would be good but all this would just see a unification fight pushed further and further back.

 

Breazale is too hittable, wilder could blow him out early. But if breazale manages to take the punch, or possibly wilder hurts his right hand/arm(which used to happen when he was heavier, and he has seemingly bulked up again)
Then wilder is in big trouble, I cant see him keeping breazale off with just his left

 

Recent events lead me to believe Breazeale feels he has Wilders number and Wilder not as confident and talking himself up more then usual.

Breazeale seems to be fit and Wilder knows he's in a real fight despite what he's saying. It's much easier for Breazeales to do simple things to get the win then Wilder to go crash into Breazeale .

It's still basically a 50/50 fight to.me which will sway either way at the weigh in.

 

Breazeale will lose rounds by getting bossed with big exchanges and big singular punches en route to a mid-round stoppage loss.

But it's Wilder so you never know when the chicken legs will give in.
