    mike tyson actually had 19 fights in his first 12 months, another 10 fights in year 2 which included 2 world championship fights.....Wilder has had 9 fights in 17 months. he will be lucky if he reaches 14 fights in 2 years

    From what I have seen he has the abality to do very well. He's 24 wich is not that old but most 24 year olds in boxing have much more experance than him. I think his people need to bring him along smartly. He can't keep fighting tamoto cans but there is no reason to throw him to the wolves right now either.

    Followed him since he was an amateur, he's not that special to be honest.

    That is, if he doesn't punch HIMSELF out first...

    He's still learning so give him some credit. Feed him 10-15 bums.
