Wilder didn't want to fight Breazeale. He's put that fight off for more than a year while he fought Luis Ortiz and Tyson Fury (and tried to fight Fury again.) The WBC mandated Wilder fight Breazeale or be stripped. So Wilder will fight Breazeale and knock him out. Joshua defended his title against Eric Molina after Wilder knocked him out, and after Arreola knocked him out. (Breazeale even knocked out Molina.) Nobody threatened to strip Joshua if he didn't fight Eric Molina. Joshua is becoming a clown. Let's see Joshua's reaction video if Wilder signs with DAZN. I don't think he'll be laughing.
why won't he be laughing??? He will of inadvertently bought the WBC belt Wilder is the worst HW "boxing" champ in a long time (OMFG he scraped past buffet Stiverne who then disgraced boxing in the 2nd bout and then sturggled against the "bogeyman", the "Hammer hammerer" King Kan't Luis Ortizn't) nice AJ is praying Wilder signs with DAZN
You forget that Joshua was meant to fight Wlad not Molina but Wlad got injured and so they brought in Molina instead. Could he of fought someone better, probably but with the Wlad fight next they were not going to take any risks.
at "boxing" i would argue the differ he's heavy handed but loses MANY rounds against spilka, washington, Ortizn't, buffet stiverne, duhapass, molina... jesus the list continues.... the worm hahahah sconiers hahah and i would bet Valuev and Ruiz too in fact Valuev > Wilder all day....
That's all well and good but he beat both Spilka and Washington. And if Valuev ever fought Wilder prime for prime then My money is on the lightning fast power puncher over the non defensive giant Edit: and to be a successful boxer you don't have to be a good "boxer"
breazeale beat ugonuh in a tough fight IMO ogunuh is a very talented heavyweight he is just so inactive and blew his load v breazeale but he puts his punches together very fast/technically correct and with good power breazeale never won on talent he won on will to win and willing to fight back when hurt and outmatched that IMO gives him a punchers chance v wilder wilder when he gets a fighter hurt technique and style go out the window/ and could easily walk onto one v breazeale if this happens i pick wilder but i have no problem with breazeale as an opponent.
Boxers > Punchers Wilder's had a fantastic run and given us all some fun but his lack of skill has been catching up with him more and more and then Fury got up......
Normally I'd agree with Boxers over punchers however Valuev wasn't much of a boxer or a puncher, he was just massive like Primo Carnera.
agreed absolutely, but it took Haye some effort and Wilder is no Haye imho but i understand we may not agree on that part.. EDIT - in fact i would love to see a prime Haye v now Wilder thread..... would be very interesting thread indeed
I think Haye wins that, Boxer Puncher>Slugger However the reason I think Wilder does better than Haye against Valuev is because of his Height and arguably has alot more power in one punch Haye KO 3 for Wilder Wilder KO (some where over 12) Valuev
