Study Your History: Deonatay Wilder = Michael Grant

totally agree. there is a reason why wilder is fighting guys like duhaupas and molina.

even in a thin heavyweight devision, duhaupas and molina are just plain bums.

povetkin will kill him.

 

Lewis would destroy Wilder effortlessly. Wilder wouldn't have a chance. Grant was a more athletic, powerful, and coordinated version of Wilder.

 

Grant beat guys like Golota, Izon, Puritty... Grant at 31-0 going into the Lewis fight is a better fighter than Wilder will ever be.

 

an old Grant got robbed be Adamek and nobody cared. You won't do Deontay the same way!

 

Let's just say this... A couple of years a go when Wilder was moving up the ranks someone like Grant was too dangerous of a fight for him to take. I think that says it all.

 

Whoever bumped this thread did a good job reminding the Anti-Wilder of how wrong they were :deal

 

Your Wilder hate is really getting ridiculous. Golota, Purritty, and Izon are the best you can come up with to say his pre Lennox Lewis resume was head and shoulders above Wilder's? Really?

Golota was never the same after Lennox Lewis, maybe not Rid**** Bowe. Purrity and Izon might have been class B fighters at best. I'd take Stiverne, Scott, Liakhovich, and maybe even Duahpaus over those guys.

Like I said, they are both 6'7 black American fighters, and that's basically where the similarity ends. Saying Grant is so much better is absolutely baseless. Period.

And like I said, even if he was, there is no Lennox Lewis in the HW division to do to Wilder what Lewis did to Grant.

 

So are the nut huggers I see.

 

In this case, the haters are far bigger idiots.

 

You boy has fought no one. Once he does then you are more than welcome to sing his praises like Fury's boys are.

Maybe find out from him why he likes to talk **** and fight cans? How long to his next "defense?" still TBA what a joke...

 

Fury had fought no one either prior to schooling Wlad. Chisora was his best, and I have no qualms saying he is no better than Stiverne.

Wilder has unanswered questions, but you can't dismiss a 35-0 WBC hw champion with 34 knockouts no matter who he has fought.

 

I thought the same about Fury but he has proven himself now.

I think Chisora > Stiverne and given Rossy did what you boy couldn't to Stiverne I think his power is a bit over rated as well. Just remember who Stiverne beat to get that belt..

When has Wilder fought anyone bigger than him?? He is even more reliant on using his size and reach to tee off from a distance than Vlad needs it to jab and hold.

Look if he goes out and does the same stuff against a top 5 heavyweight then good on him but he need to do it first.

 

Stiverne was badly overweight against Rossy. Wilder may have actually ruined him. He beat Arreola to get the belt. Arreola is no ATG by any means, but he's solid. His only losses came against Vitali, Adamek, and Stiverne. Everyone else he pretty much destroyed.

And I have no problem at all with people not being sold on Wilder, its those totally dismissing him that I have to take issue with. And often their arguments are not even accurate.

 

Wilder has just came out stating he is the best heavyweight in the world and you wonder why some of us poke fun of him given who he a fought..

 

That's on him. He goes out and loses he will look like a clown, but he can go out and prove himself right.
