    Wilder has only fought tomato cans, fat boys, special needs teachers, pasty chefs, polish football hooligans and pensioners with heart conditions.

    The one notably exception to that list is of course the legendary Dustin Nichols who had Windmill in his skinny backside with a check jab.

    Fury will jab Windmill all night long - if fight goes ahead.

    Yeah except Ortiz outboxed him for the majority of the fight and rocked him too, that constitutes a "chance" as far as I'm concerned if they were to fight again.

    Povetkin gave a good enough acount of himself versus Joshua (who I think is a superior fighter) for me to take away that he'd have a chance to win versus Wilder too.

    We don't know. I used to think Joshua was clearly better than Wilder and Fury. Now I'm not sure!

    Fury could out box either, Wilder and Joshua hit hard enough to knock each other and Fury out.

    We'll have to wait and see.

    We've seen him get out boxed by lesser fighters than Fury over multiple rounds before they get caught by a bomb. So I could possibly see both Fury and Joshua beating him. Too bad we most likely won't get to see the Josuha-Wilder fight til at least late 2019

    None of these clowns have anything for Wilder, especially not the stiff Joshua, featherfisted and glass chinned Fury, or the circus midget Povetkin. Ortiz had the best shot, but as the TS said, he already got banged out.

    Of course. Ortiz from 2015 would've had a very good chance. Fury from 2015 had the punching angles and gas tank to possibly beat Wilder.

    Joshua is improving, but still needs more experience before fighting Wilder. If Joshua had a good jab, was 10-15 lbs lighter, and had a good uppercut I'd pick him over anyone in the division, but he doesn't yet. Joshua's jab is one of the biggest weaknesses in his game. He has a good check hook, but Wilder isn't going to get tired like Wlad, Povetkin, or Takam.

    He does but I was just stating my opinion, this is why I prefaced it with "who I think"

    Thank you, I don’t understand why people can’t see Fury is a nice boxer.

    I think technically he is better , but I also think wilder has a very good chance to catch him with one of those crazy windmills.

    I just don’t think he is as good as many think he is. Wlad was old and past prime when fury outslapped him in a boring , ugly fight.
