They are... Wilder has shown nothing except a powerful long right hand. Yet some people here think that he is the real dealatsch What is Wilder doing now? Why not fight more often? You cant tell me the Audley fight was very hard for him. Why not fight Johnson? Mansour? Scott? Glazkov? There are plenty of good heavyweight in the USA! Yet it dont looks like Wilder wants to face any of them.
Wilder is the next Gerry Cooney, he's being hyped up until he gets a big pay day and then he'll be fed to the wolves and the carcass picked clean. These are facts, these are irrefutable deal with.
I was so far off the mark with this wasn't I, Now none other than Lennox Lewis is predicting that Wilder is the main boxer out there who has the style to beat Grabamir Klinchsko. I'll take his opinion over yours Lol:yep
Denotay Wilder: "It was a great experience to be in there with the champ of the world and see why he's the heavy[weight] champion of the world. Now I understand why," Wilder said. "I went over 45-plus rounds with him, and some days it would be just me and him sparring and that's it. It was kind of an honor to display my talent to him. There'd be five, six guys there ready to spar with him, and I'd be the first one he'd pick every day and sometimes the only he'd spar with that day." Although Wilder's real opponents have been a collection of nobodies, he has experience sparring with other quality contenders. Wilder said he also has been in camps with former titleholder David Haye, Tomasz Adamek and Tony Deontay Wilder has sparred numerous rounds with heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, pictured, against whom he eventually wants a title shot. "As far as learning the game, I've been in a lot of great camps," Wilder said. "They taught me a lot of things. Each and every day I'm studying my own sweet science, so when it's time for me to get under the lights I'm effective to do the things I planned to do so I can be the next heavyweight champ of the world." Of all the camps Wilder has been in, though, he says Klitschko's was the best experience. "Every time we sparred, we had an audience and when we finished the guys in the gym would give us a loud ovation," Wilder said. "It was almost as if we gonna have to fight one day, so we went at it. The things I was working on, if I can do it to him, I can do it to anybody. It was a ball every time. It was sparring, but I was coming to fight. "Wladimir was definitely a cool guy, we clicked, we talked outside the ring. He was telling me he was happy and excited I was there. He thanked me for coming. He told me I'm the fastest guy he sparred with and the best guy he sparred with and the future of the heavyweight division." Klitschko has said repeatedly over the years he hopes that a top American contender emerges so that it will make sense for him to defend the title again in the United States, where he hasn't fought since unifying belts against Sultan Ibragimov in 2008. As far as Klitschko is concerned, Wilder very well could be that guy. "Very athletic guy with the great energy," Klitschko said of Wilder. "I'm very impressed with his KO percentage as well. I'm sure, if he stays focused on the sport, he'll have very bright future. Absolutely, he gave me the best work."

If Wilder can move from impressing in sparring against top heavyweights to doing it for real when everyone is watching, maybe he has a chance to become champion. "Two great things about Deontay are his willingness to learn and his work ethic," said trainer Mark Breland, a former two-time welterweight titlist and 1984 Olympic gold medalist. "He knows he's still learning and has the right attitude. He's hungry and works hard in the gym. "This is another stepping stone, but there's no way we take Liakhovich lightly. There are still little things he can do that Deontay's never seen." Wilder said he expects to be in a significant fight in 2014. "I feel I'm six, eight months away, but definitely next year," Wilder said. "I got a strong team with Al Haymon and Shelly Finkel [who is also a Klitschko adviser], two of the most powerful managers. Most of the time they'd be competing against each other, so maybe I'm only three months away from a big fight. You never know. I want to put myself in position so when the shot comes I am ready. "But I want a title fight. We want to do away with what people are saying, about how I've only fought low-level opponents. I want a Klitschko [either Wladimir or brother and fellow titlist Vitali]. I don't want to fight for a vacant belt and wait for them to retire. It's not gonna feel the same, because they have had the belts for so long, it would only be right to take it from them. I want to fight one of them before they retire. "It's time to release the beast. I know the promotion game and it's hard to make these big fights. I know it just don't happen like that. But from this point, after beating Liakhovich, I'm looking for bigger and better guys. The question is: Are they ready for me?"
I doubt if Wilder only fought in the ring for less than five minutes in a three year span could take a PRIME Larry Holmes into the 13th rnd.
How can you say he has the 'conditioning' to trouble Wlad? On what basis has he proved his conditioning? There's no evidence
