It was found that a lot of Buck's fights were either against fighters who were taking a dive, or really just exhibitions and boxing records aren't sure how to classify them.
Even for somewhat short notice this is still a disappointing fight for Wilder. Firtha is a respectable journeyman and may even give Wilder some rounds before gettting stopped but Wilder should be past this level.
The answer is no. Even the archetype for Olympic-accomplished heavyweights who inflated their early KO record by fighting a ton of no-hopers, George Foreman, fought an old Chuvalo and Peralta in his first 30 fights.
firtha is a big man 6 foot 5 245 lbs...he gave povetkin problems....i think this is a good stay busy fight for wilder..povetkin couldnt stop firtha...fury took 5 rds...so if wilder does it quicker...could make him look better than povetkin or fury...
This is a good stay busy fight. There was no way they could get a big name for that date, and it looks like they want to keep this guy active.
