    Only one person can knockout the Iron Bull. The dopeman.

    TBooze, Please show my evidence that McCall admitted being dropped by Tyson.
    This I never heard. I heard he was never dropped.
    Thank you.

    Wilder is hitting at levels never seen, we need a new barometer here.

    Prime McCall with Steward in his corner - I think I might agree. If Emanuel could dissect weaknesses in Lennox, surely he'd have a great chance of dissecting Wilder equally well.

    He's easy to dissect, trouble is once he lands that right hand just once it's a game changer.

    This guy does a great analysis.

    * I * can dissect Wilder, it's not exactly hard. McCall is bad news all the way for Wilder. He's a world class opponent with a titanium chin and big power of his own. Writing is on the wall for Wilder ...

    Wilder has diamond tipped fists, game over for McCall.

    What makes you think that? Who all on his resume do you think a guy like Tyson, Louis, Dempsey, Lewis, Foreman, W Klitschko, etc. couldn't knock out?

    Ortiz would take some shifting.

    Your argument is logically circular not to be rude. You're saying: Wilder is a devastating puncher the likes we have never seen--> because he knocked out Ortiz --> who has a good chin because he hasn't been knocked out and went 9 full rounds with Wilder --> who is a devastating puncher the likes we have never seen

    This brings us back to why does Ortiz have a good chin? Then you say because he hasn't been knocked out and took good shots from Wilder to which I say he has fought relatively weak opposition who hardly stood a chance and that he eventually succumbed to Wilder's punches so that doesn't really mean he has a great chin. I would say he has an average chin.

    Remind me again what top punchers he has faced?
    He has had 31 pro fights,7 against opponents with losing records.

    No my argument is based on common sense and an understanding of the sport, anyone who tries to downplay his power knows nothing of the sport whatsoever. Wilder clearly has devastating one shot power. Name me any fighter who fought who you mentioned who wouldn't be knocked out by Wilder's best shots.
