This content is protected Do you think the moves in this vid are the best way to counter Wilder`s long lead that he relies on?
Tyson in his prime would knock Wilder out early, he would be way too much for Wilder.....................
While i think Wilder is a lot better now than he was a few years ago, i can't forget how difficult Duhaupas was for him. They went to war.
No, that's Dustin Nichols. Tyson never had the movement and slick defence of the worm. He would go after Wilder and this would give Wilder a chance of landing something and winning, but Wilder would never be able to beat Nichols without a corrupt referee. The 'slick boxing carnival Fatman' style of Nichols is the exact antidote for the 'off balance windmilling' style of Wilder.
Tyson`s defense was all about getting underneath the jab and countering the hook, which is perfect to offset Wilder`s timing, Tyson had amazing defensive skills. This content is protected
it would be a shootout with the odds going to Mike. Mike could avoid Wilder's punches and land his and stop him in about 1 or 2.
Tyson was exceptionally accurate and a compact, fast, powerpuncher. He started with the gas on high and didnt **** around. Wilder starts slow, has little footwork and defence. He usually gets outboxed till round 5 when he gets the range and starts landing bombs. Starting slow and getting outboxed by featherfist Szpilka is one thing. Getting outboxed by Tyson means ... getting boxed in a crate and shipped home with a tag on your toe. Tyson is an awful matchup for Wilder.
Like he knocked out journeyman James Tillis, who was a punchbag by then coming off 3 losses in a row? Tyson himself said he was lucky to win that fight in a narrow UD. Like he knocked out Mitch Green you mean? Who never amounted to anything as a HW but was able to take a Prime Tyson the distance. Like he knocked out Tony Tucker? Another fight nowhere near the level of Wilder in the sport now, again able to take him the distance. Tyson is all smoke and mirrors. He would certainly not be stopping Wilder, AJ or Tyson Fury early.
Other than an in shape, fully motivated Dustin Nichols who'd had a full 8 week camp and wasn't livin' la vida loca?
Any elite heavyweight with above average mobility causes Wilder all kinds of problems. I dont see wilder handling a tyson who would tear into him the minute the first bell landed.
what is smoke and mirrors is you using the rare occasions tyson was taken the distance, and NOT taking the evidence of him koing a string of champions early.
I think it would look a lot like the Rabalta fight! Wilder seems to have a decent chin and excellent power but I think mike stops him late .good fight
Tyson stops him early. He starts at 100mph. His head movement early on was great, and he was obviously an inside fighter. If you combine that with Wilder’s weaknesses; goes into panic mode when pressed, losing his composure. It all spells disaster for Wilder. Wilder really leaves his chin out there when he’s pressed. Doing that against Tyson would be a disaster.
