    Of course its guess work, like every fantasy match up :patsch.
    Some may possibly end up being opponents for Wilder and prediction threads which could be made and some of those may well be considered guess work.
    Of course there is evidence, there has been some common opponents even if they are coming off defeats etc, look at how Wilder performed against M Scott after his loss to Chisora. Sure many fighters are different after a loss, but it may give you or others some idea.
    So how do you think Wilder would do, if matched tough in the European scene? Its an opinion, not a fact

    My best guess is that the first time he came up against a durable opponent who is durable and can fight back, Wilder would totally fold. I base this simply on the fact that he hast really fought a credible opponent in 5 years and there must be a reason why. Also, he has never fought anyone near his caliber, so the first time doing so after 31 bum fights might be quite a shock to the system. Stiverne, KO1

    It seems like cruel and unusual punishment for a guy with Wilders physical advantages to be beating the living sh!t out of fat washed up old guys at this point of his career. Maybe its a bit much on my part, but Im getting pretty sick of this guys act. Perhaps its Golden Boys fault and hes just trying to make a living? Am I outa line?
