If you don't think Deontay could catch Wlad in the 1st round, you're nuts

    Deontay isn't very good, but neither is Wlad. Problem is, Deontay is tall, rangy, and just doesn't give a fark. He would go right after Wlad and the first person to land flush would likely win the fight. I would bet on Deontay being able to throw bombs and catch Wlad and hurt him and maybe even knock him out. Wlad isn't some defensive specialist, and he wouldn't be prepared for Deontay's early blitz. He would back straight up into retreat mode because that's all he knows how to do when his opponent is on the offensive. And what this would show would not be that Deontay is so good, but rather how average Wlad truly is and has been.

    Jason Gavern lasted 4 rounds, that skinny internet troll was able to get back up after his punches too, I don't think Vlad's got too much to worry about.

    The internet troll was able to evade the punches, and he wasn't caught clean. Wlad can't slip punches to save his life.

    Read what Deontay said about sparring with Wlad. Im quoting 'It was a very humbling experience and I have my work cut out for me'.

    /End thread.

    ofc he can catch him. but the most likely scenario is he swings wildly and the straighter punch lands quicker, and wlad knocks him sparko.

    Who cares...Wilder hasn't shown anything in his skillset that would make one able to come to the conclusion that he has top level heavyweight potential. He is the epitome of a can beater.

    Sparring is sparring. To deny that Wilder's aggressive style couldn't be a problem for Wlad is just denying the obvious.

    But Wlad isn't a counter puncher

    Wilder for me is a glass cannon, hes too open and wild, and wont be able to rule the roost when wlad leaves. Hes not clever or savvy enough, but if he were to land on wlad which he could with his explosiveness then you could have a new world champion. But wilder will lose it in 2 or 3 defences if he tries beaten the top 10 guys straight away.

    Dont really have to be a counter puncher, to land a shot before the other guys land, the technique straight arm punches belong to wlad, test it yourself a jab will land before a flailing right. and so would a straight right hand down the pipe.

    He's walked through everyone he's faced although poor opposition, let's see how he does against stiverne first who looks like he knows what he's doing, if he beats stiverne then fair play, I'll take my hat off to him.

    He could well walk through wlad but as many have tried and failed it can be a different world when your on the big stage infront of a klitschko and you feel the power of those jabs.....we shall see.

    you've been watching too much showtime boxing f@ggot. wilder is a club fighter and wladimir would destroy him.
