    I think we define brutal KO as two different things, standing up before the count isn't a sign of someone being brutally KO'd

    There isn't much point in arguing about a hypothetical situation which might never come to fruition, that technique is working currently (does he normally do that? just asking because what I've saw he appeared a bit more controlled) but I think it would be worthwhile practicing another way of finishing people (as far as I know he might be able to actually do what I'm talking about)

    And yeah Wilder being successful would do wonders, even if I think he is raw and would get beat at a certain level, he is entertaining and provided he ditches the poems a very good talker.

    come on let's be honest in critique here. Wilder looked like an athletic powerful heavyweight etc etc, but one well placed right hand, or perhaps a 2 or 3 punch textbook combination would've been more effective than the wild swings directly after hurting Harrison. it doesn't look like something you work in the gym on. does this not fall under the category of 'finishing ability?'

    But that was a great job in nailing Harrison with the first right hand, because he shot it while batting Harrison's lead hand down with his own lead hand which gave a clear path to Audley's chin.

    so obviously like all prospects there's good and bad and things to work on

    This is pretty much what I was trying to say, just failing with my lack of sleep flu brain.

    It was comical and terrifying at the same time. But Mark Breland should probably have a word with him. That said, the spectacle has 125,000 hits on Youtube so far and you have to give the windmills some credit for that.

    It's a ****ing good right hand, but Audley had already been sparked by Price which took some of the heat off it.

    Just seen it for the first time now.

    Harrison basically gets caught with one shot, nothing spectacular,

    Then droops down to the canvas, waits until the count of 8, gets up but messes around with his trousers, in order to show the referee he does not want to fight on.

    Yes, it looks to me like more a case of Harrison giving up after he felt the first flush shot. Which was the case against both Price and Haye.

    Yes he is, because he is scared, lacks heart and fighting instinct.

    He did not look as hurt as he was by Haye and Price, and it looked to me that as he got to his feet he just did not want to fight on, hence the pissing about with his shorts and looking down, rather than walking forward to the referee.

    Audley is worse than Tye Fields..................I wish Vitali could fight Wilder right now, but he will probably fight Stiverne before retiring. Vitali by knockout!!!!!!!

    I would pick Tyson Fury's 18 years old cousin to knock Wilder out. He is 6 feet 8 inches tall, has fast hands, great technique, great amateur background, was Jr. gold medalist Olympics, etc., and he has had only 2 pro fights...............Pulev would murder Wilder. I would pick Kevin Johnson to knock Wilder out..............
