Deontay Wilder Versus Joe Frazier

Peak Frazier absolutely destroys Wilder.

 

I can see a lot of reasons why Joe Frazier would give Deontay Wilder all kinds of problems. But I’m also skeptical about whether or not he could take some of those heavy punches all night. I’m undecided.

 

Well Wilder has absolutely no clue what "all night" is actually like...15 with Frazier

 

hopefully Wilder comes well dressed and with his fanciest perfume, this will be a LOOOONG date

 

Same. Frazier was the better fighter but I don’t know if he could take Wilder's power. One thing though is Wilder didn’t particularly have an uppercut in his arsenal which he would need vs the shorter, bobbing and weaving Frazier.

 

Agree . Deontay Wilder never fully learned to take advantage of his height and reach. This is a big problem when facing a master at working his way to the inside. Joe Frazier would give Wilder plenty of problems ( and might even beat him. ) But Wilder’s durability and colossal power would always prevent me from choosing any clear favorites.

 

The problem with Wilder, as rough as he is..... Is that with his power and toughness, any hittable heavyweight is gonna have a hard time going 12 with em.... Frazier was an ATG, and had great defense for such an offensive style...but he was still plenty hittable (by nature of being so aggressive..)

Safe money is certainly on Frazier - but this is just a fight I wouldn't bet on.. Actually, if Wilder were a big underdog, I'd drop some on em....

 

Could Wilder take the body punches Frazier would give him? If yes maybe? But for how long? Joe didn't dabble in body punishment. He was committed to it.

 

They is a distinct possibility of frazier walking onto or getting set up for that right hand and going out, because he was as stated earlier in this thread, quite hittable, like a lot more than you would think.

 

People are acting like all that bum Wilder has to do is nail Frazier one time, and Joe will go down and not get up. How many times did George have to bounce Frazier off the canvas? Difference being, Foreman was one of the best finishers who ever lived. Wilder.. was not. Even if Frazier gets hurt, chances are he recovers.

 

****, maybe wilder only has to hit him once, we dont know

 

This site has a weird affection w Wilder. One of the worst contenders to ever live. He literally beat no one his whole career. He’s an amateur w all time power. ATG fighters easily beat this man. Frazier, Marciano, Tyson, Holyfield, whoever. If they have the least bit of skill they will win.

 

Tried to sneak rocky in there

 

No way am I picking Wilder over The Smoke.
Not now, not ever:
