    I know the size difference is quite dramatic. Wilder has 30 pounds, 5 inch in height, and 6 inch in reach advantage. This is not completely unusual for Louis though he has fought at a higher size disadvantage.
    I think the skill level is dramatic enough for Louis to win here. He was a master a finding openings, exposing them and then loading up on a series of vey quick accurate powerful punches and overwelming his oppoents. Louis has far better footwork, ring IQ, hand speed and Wilder. Wilder has proven to have poor balance and quite easy to hit over his last few fights.

    Only worry is Wilder might be able to land his bomb and stop Louis, he does have more than enough power to stop Louis's chin. I think Louis is a great finisher, and when he finds an opening he will get Wilder out of there in the early rounds, before Wilder is able to start timing Louis like he did with Szpilka and Washington.
    What do you think. How do each of them win this fight? Is Wilder to powerful for Louis, and will eventually catch him with a bomb, or would Louis expose and school Wilder?

    You expect they'll dig Louis up to act as Wilder's next opponent?

    Louis's bum of the month was certainly a great inspiration to Deonkey.

    Louis KO via blazing combinations with power in every shot. Wilder would get smoked.

    Judging by the Washington fight, Louis would have absolutely destroyed Wilder. The cops would have arrested Joe for GBH after it.

    Not even debatable, Luis would smash Wilder, take down Wilders statue with his bare hands and shyte on it. Same night, not necessarily in that order.

    Deontay's got a good chance here if he lands big.

    He would instruct him in the art of lucid dreaming in front of the distraction of thousands of hooting sprctators.

    And I don't think they'd fight each other.

    Louis would love Wilder and vice versa. They'd be close to brothers, two men coming from similar backgrounds with similar stories.

    Joe Louis by KO. Wilder gets the Abe Simon treatment, probably doesn't do as well as Primo Carnera or Bobby Baer.
