    I like the idea of Okolie v Deontay Wilder at Bridgerweight and feel this is a winnable fight for Wilder.

    Would be interested in the opinion of others on here.

    I suppose so.....but I mean does anyone really wanna see Wilder again? How many more chances can you give a washed up dude? Hid body should be telling him it's time to retire.

    Wilder has nothing left. Even Okolie would be too much.

    Wilder is clearly done as a boxer. He has no weapon left and he was never a good boxer in the first place. He had a good run and a decent career with his limitations. There’s not a chance he should be getting back in the ring and the good thing is that it looks like he knows that himself.

    I think he would get iced by Okolie. Time to hang up the gloves.

    I believe can still achieve his dream of becoming undisputed in the brigderweight provided usyk didn't move down. Wilder smashes okolie IMO

    Okolie would have beaten Wilder at any point if his career.

    Wilder doesn't win against world level boxers.

    Never mind Okolie, Babic would be too much for him!
    There’s no point in him going on, he’s seriously risking his health, if he does.

    He's finished. He's not even a draw anymore, should just retire. He's had a good career overall. Ultimate can crusher but was a world champion and made a lot of money.

    Okolie would be too much for Wilder now. He seems slow easy to hit and can't hold a short. Time to call it a day.
