    The two bombers hail from Alabama, both have immense power, very articulate, both hofers of the highest order. In Wilder's recent fights, I saw plenty of extremely crisp straight punches, reminiscent of Louis's.

    They even look alike, it's uncanny!

    The punch placements are just too good from Wilder atm.

    Wilder's reign COULD surpass Joe's if he keeps going at this pace.

    This. Both are similar in many ways. If Wilder stays injury free and active he should have at least another 10 fights in him.

    You are insulting the memory of great heavyweight Joe Louis by comparing him to Wilder.

    Seriously, this is pathetic. If you transported this glass jawed FRAUD Wilder back to Joe Louis' era, he'd be a good candidate for Louis's "bum of the month" campaign.

    Wilder is better than Joe Louis. Hell he might be the GOAT.

    Deontay being "very articulate" is abstruse.
