He has a punchers chance, he is a decent fighter and beat a shot Adamek. But I think Wilder will win this easily. Wilder needs better opposition.
A chance to win the fight, ahh NO, a round ahh NO last past round 2 ahh NO. If he's as chinny as all claim or even in the ball park he's getting ko'd early and ugly. His size alone makes it very improbable to be competitive for more than the first 30 seconds of round 1. For his size to compete, he would have to be better at every aspect besides reach. I'll admit, he's not even a fighter I've ever paid attention to. With such limitations he's irrelevant in today's hw landscape. Times had changed. How's he supposed to get inside, even when DW lets him inside it'll show how much of a gap in talent there is. DW is much better inside than this fringe journeyman. . Much much rather wlad accept the facts, he's done, even him at 25 he'd be just as done. Of course he has as good a chance as most in the rematch but the only 3 that matter going forward are DW AJ and Ortiz. With ortiz being 37 soon there's a chance he could be replaced with parker. Parker is highly rated on here, I don't have that same knowledge of him.. I don't get it tho. He's touted on here as a true talent then the same people are saying Takam might be too much too soon. If it was the other 3 proven hw'since (I'm in the minority with them being called proven) takam would get trashed as just another cherry pick
Can't say I've seen an awful lot of him to be honest. Not entirely sure how he has a shot but it's boxing and as the saying goes "anything can happen"
Yes he's got a chance because Wilder is underestimating him. And I know that Szpilka's pride and slight opportunity of him becoming 1st ever HW champ from Poland will give him extra spark. Szpilka's old rival in Poland, Zimnoch, knocked Wilder out in amateurs....and Zimnoch isn't even a top 25 HW at this stage.
