Ngannou vs Wilder

Francis inside 1 minute

 

Wilder vs Ngannou, Whyte and Joyce are all fights I'd love to see. Even Chisora.

 

Terrible matchup for both of them. Francis fighting someone who hits harder whose been boxing for 15 years plus is a terrible idea for him. Wilder has all risk fighting Francis and very little reward. If Wilder gets KO'd hes an embarassment if he destroys Francis then Francis isn't a real boxer and the win means nothing and Wilders still washed.

Only reason this makes sense if the Saudis pay for it and where they both are there is absolutley no reason to expect them to do that.

It would be entertaining but makes no sense for anyone involved.

 

Imho the current Wilder would lose to everyone (and Chisora).
But Wilder (Ortiz 2)...
I think now the heavyweights have seen how to box against Wilder. By "seen" I mostly mean the fight with Parker.

 

Wilder vs Whyte would be the only meaningful fight I'd like to see for him. I'm not sure Ngannou will even fight again after the tragedy with his son.

 

How can you trust a glass cannon when he can't even pull the trigger anymore?

 

You can't, which is why it would sell. You either get Wilder bullied and beat down by 270 lbs of pure muscle or we see something similar to what AJ did to him. Some now, would view this as a 50/50 fight, it could certainly be sold that way.

 

Wilder has no punch resistance, inability to throw combinations, barely uses his right hand, has a practically nonexistent jab, and apparently has zero motivation or energy.

Sure, put him in there with Ngannou. Or maybe a tiger or a 30 ft anaconda. Or dump him into a tank filled with sharks and piranhas that haven't been fed in a week. Or maybe into a swamp containing 20' salt water crocodiles.

 

Ngannou now

 

Ngannou, easily.
