    Makes sense, Banks has already exposed big Seth, despite for some reason giving him a pass in the second fight, paid off maybe, isn't it time Mr Deontay "Almost 30 fights, almost 30 KOs yet hasn't really fought anybody" Wilder tests himself?

    I just made a thread which was overlooked asking if currently if Tony was the number 1 HW from America.

    From that performance he'd kick Wilder's ass.

    I thought it may have been premature ranking him so high after the first victory over Price, but you can't argue with this, he got up from a big knockdown from a big puncher to once again bully Price into submission, and he looked very comfortable in doing so, he's a very likeable guy too

    Wilder's team tried to make that fight before but the Brit promoter wanted a hefty six figures from GBP to release him from the rematch clause with Price.

    Wilder's team is still interested in making the fight after Deontay's fight in August. I wouldn't be surprised if it happened by the end of the year.

    Thompson KO 3. It'd be a war but Tiger got this.

    Wilder refused to fight Thompson once already. Thompson would knock Wilder out. Vlad toyed with Wilder in sparring for the Wach fight. Wilder would have zero chance against Vlad or Vitali,none at all. Wilder will only fight winos from the alley..............

    Wilders handlers are JUST getting confident enough to put Wilder in with guys that were once relevant.. To think that 28 fights in and A-farce is his best opponent by far it's pathetic to say the least... now they are putting him in with a shot to **** Liakhovich almost 5 years, and almost 30 fights into his career... How anybody takes this fraud seriously is behind me.. Really hope Liakhovich shows up with half a pulse so he can expose this joke to the world.

    Nah, Wilder would knock out Thompson.
    Compared to Price, Wilder has some speed and stamina, Price was so goddamn awfull he couldnt keep an old and slow Thompson away from him.

    Yes, it's the logical fight to make.

    Wilder is god awful.. He's so sloppy and makes so many mistakes.. even more than Price. How can you say Wilder has good stamina when he hasn't gone more than 4 rounds and has yet to be tested by a live opponent? At least Price beat some decent British level HW's before being exposed by a world level guy.. Wilder on the other hand has been in with nothing but complete stiffs and still looks awful and vulnerable when beating them... You'd never see Price windmilling away and falling over like Wilder did against A-farce.... Come on. Thompson would knock that joke out no problem, get real man.

    It would be a very sharp step-up for Wilder. Maybe if he looks good against a badly faded Lyakhovic, GBP will get a little brave with him.

    I'd like to see it. It's time to find out if Wilder can face someone with a pulse.

    This Price affair is a confirmation for the team of Wilder's on how they're matching him very very carefully. All the critics who rip Wilder's opposition need to take a hard look at Price's trainwreck of a career.

    When you manage a fighter who is a train-wreck waiting to happen (Price and Wilder) then you have to manage them this carefully.

    If Wilder gets by Lyakhovich and faces Thompson next, then who you got, madballster? Do you think Wilder vs Thompson is a bad fight?

    Thompson? Deontay's people wouldn't risk putting him in there with Price. Wilder's still 3-4 years from fighting a top 10 HW.
