    Yeah because he'd be by Sergei's bedside at the hospital for a month straight hoping he pulled through.

    If Charlie Z, let alone Nichols stunned Wilder, Kovalev would utterly destroy Wilder

    I think he would have a chance sure, but stylistically a guy with good volume, and better inside skills would do better.
    Kov has the volume, but his game is mid range. A guy who could put his head on Wilder's chest, and keep it there would have less trouble as Wilder's inside game is lacking.

    Chuck Z did not stun him, lol.
    Nichols caught him with a jab when Wilder was off balance, as Wilder has poor balance for a world champion, and it was worse then.
    The Sconiers KD is more troubling though as it was real, and the footage was removed to protect Wilder's reputation most likely.
