Deontay Wilder vs Muhammad Ali, Lennox Lewis, Vitali Klitschko, Mike Tyson, Oleksandr Usyk, Liston

Gets stopped by all them Markus. Now onto the next thread.

 

How do you think of these

 

O-7

 

He could be a sparring partner for all of them. Not even in the same league 0-7

 

Muhammad Ali: Wilder is a lethal match-up for any shorter counter-puncher on the back-foot, that being said it's Ali we are talking about, styles don't really matter when you have two fighters at a completely different level than each other, it'll be harder than most would think but Ali finds a way to win.

Lennox Lewis: Considering Lewis' discipline issues, leaky defense and huge ego at times I can definitely see Wilder cracking his head open once if they fight about 3-4 times. 90% of the time though he just walks Deontay down with the jab and sleeps him with a vicious combo without much of a hassle, Lewis was VERY aggressive and destructive against guys his own size.

Vitali Klitschko: Vitali tended to head-butt incoming punches when he didn't have a significant height advantage, but he was tougher than iron and very good at overwhelming people with pressure which historically works against Wilder. Late TKO but he might suffer the first official knockdown of his career if he ends up running head-first into a right cross.

Mike Tyson: Slip the jab, counter left-hook, good night.

Usyk: Usyk late TKO almost certainly, but he gotta be extra careful, southpaws are especially vulnerable to a right hand (So is Wilder to a left cross but more reach than Usyk)

Liston: People won't like this but I think Wilder sleeps tf out of Liston. Liston couldn't close the distance on anything and he was used to having more reach than his opponent and people needing to come at him. None of that applies here. Wilder literally towers over him and hits unlike anything he experienced before. His head movement carries him for a while but eventually I think Liston, frustrated from Wilder's range, over-reaches on a jab and gets literally smashed into the canvas from a counter.

 

he loses to all

 

Deontay could change his name to Owen---as in 0 and 7.

 

Loses to all. Could conceivably pull out a KO shot against Lewis or Liston but 9/10 he gets stopped before that.
