Hopefully this match will happen in glorious 2016, and when it does, who is your pick? Let's put the cards on the table. Vote in the poll!
Povetkin by KO but I do think this Wilder hate bandwagon has picked up so much pace people are losing perspective on the guy. No denying his suspect chin and awful opposition to date, the latter I blame on his team more than him. I think Wilder is all wrong for Povetkin and will be winning the fight when he gets knocked out.
You think povetkin can take flush shots from DW, crazy man. If out of shape terribly weak chambers as a hw could land cleanly enough to really hurt povetkin he has any chance lasting more than a couple minutes. Yes, if (huge massive IF too) povetkin lasts more than a single full round I'll eat crow till the end of my time. This is such a useless fight, povetkinnot will get blasted out and blasted out very fast. DW will make easy work of Fury too. The two most simple fights that, for unknown reasons, he'll receive unwarranted credit for on forums and possibly by boxings related people.. DW Whooping these 2 fighters is completely expected fully which changes my mind non, beating these two down badly and as expected changes nothing except the date moves closer to vs Joshua and or ortiz.
wilder has proven his power aint special by going into the later fight with bums like molina and duphuas, and unable to stop a fat dehydrated bog creature stiverne. :deal
Fighters trying only to survive and not to get ko'd are really much harder to stop than fighters trying to win the fight. Fighters trying to win will always give his opponents opportunities to land big on them. Fighters trying to survive don't try to win and can keep themselves closed off for much too long Huge difference between stopping someone trying to beat you than it is vs one trying not to get caught. That's a fact, proven time and time again. Just keep believing ko's really have any real power meaning, you'll continue to believe the opposite of the truth. No worries, everyone has to start with the basics. Long as you make progession, that's all that does matter
Wilder isnt a master technician lad. hes a fast, powerful puncher with long arms and height. Dont know what you think hes meant to be in there lol
Povetkin deserves to be a slight favorite, but for me its a 50/50 fight. If it ever happens, Wilder will have successfully faced opposition with more commonality to Sasha then vice versa. That kind of speed, power and dimensions could be problematic for Povetkin. Wouldn't be surprised with either result.
Let's just see a date for this fight instead of forever speculating on it. This fight should've happened by now. Focking WBC.
I think it's going to happen in 2017. Wilder will unify with the IBF winner after he beats Szpilka. Then he'll fight Fury after Tyson wins the rematch. Probably a voluntary after that, then in 2017 he'll fight Sasha if he's still around.
