    Wilder aint lettin nuttin get to his head . He has to good of a team for that.


    His title defenses have been vs worthy contenders . N next will b tru test vs povetkin stylistically very tuff for povetkin to over come size advantage

    Povetkin is short. he does have trouble getting in and that can pose a problem. however, think Pov is on another level for Wilder and that Wilder will lose by KO. Time will tell.

    I see a lot of Michael Grant in Wilder, although he's not half as good as a prime Grant was :lol:

    Indeed Wilder is poor men's Michael Grant with better athleticism.

    EXACTLY.....I will be here. just as I was after Szpilka got ko'd . I said he would win but he doesn't . Hey, if I could always pick them I wouldn't have to work and if correctly picking them was a prerequisite for posting on ESB...Nobody would be here.

    Yes, he does fight like the 50yr old version of Hearns.
