Takam would stop Wilder

Not answering the question lol

 

Takam s toughness to survive and win 1 round against Joshua makes you think he will exploit Wilder? Seems like your making these assumptions based on your dislike for Wilder more then anything Takam was able to do

 

I rated Takam long before Joshua.

I was one of the guys that laughed at all the mongs thinking AJ could blow him out in 1.

Meanwhile, Wilder is going life-and-death with Washington, Szpilka and similar greats Takam would give Wilder all he could handle and I say he beats him. Instead, Wilder is facing Stiverne who barely scraped by Rossy

 

Let's just remember how Molina did against Wilder (he actually rocked him) and then how Molina did against Joshua (looked like he decided to pick a fight with a freight train and realised he made a terrible mistake when he was past the point of no return).

Takam beats everyone on Wilders resume and Wilder has been in strife more than once going through that resume. I think Takam would give Wilder and his fans a very uncomfortable night. The main thing Wilder has over most of the big heavies is that he seems to have a decent gas tank, but there is no point having great mileage if you crumble when you hit a pothole

 

AJ doesn't have the best chin in the business but better than Wilder's. But Wilder wasn't bothered at all by Takham's punches. He simply walked through them. Whyte however wobbled AJ. I think Wilder's garbage chin would hold up to Takham's punches when Wilder would stay on the backfoot and not engage with him, much like Wilder vs. Stiverne I. UD win for Wilder.

And I am saying this as one of Wilder's biggest critics here.

 

I think Wilder would keep more distance between him and Takam, jab more. I also think Wilder has an advantage in 1 shot power over AJ. Aj should've been throwing the jab way more. I think he was worried he would gas after Takam showed he could take his shots though..I'm not convinced they've got the formula right with training AJ, and they wont get the best out of him. I don't care what style hes up against, 18 stone 2lb is too heavy

 

On paper Wilder should be able to stick and move vs Takam. In reality his footwork is awful and his jab indifferent.
He's done nothing to improve himself in 5 years. In fact I think he's worse than a couple of years ago.

 

Did'nt think i'd be saying this, but after Saturday, the gulf has closed a bit between Wilder and AJ imo. He looked to be out of idea's at times, and considering he held all the advantages, it was a bit of a surprise !

 

Agree. People were saying AJ beats prime Ali, FFS! Joshua is good, but let's get real for a second. I still think he clobbers Wilder though.

 

Fury and Haye are the only ones that have dominated Chisora. On his day hes a handful for everyone imo that are relevant ! Any way this aint about Chisora is it

 

Anyone expecting Wilder to employ boxing against Takam clearly hasn't seen too many Wilder fights. Despite his build and general demeanour as a come forward slugger it's Takam who's actually the better boxer here. Wilder would get utterly confounded by the head movement and footwork Takam employed and likely find tremendous difficulty landing his wind up haymakers on Takam's constantly bobbing head. Here's how I think it goes.

Wilder starts off jabbing off the backfoot but finds his jab failing to land against the bobbing and weaving Takam. He begins to find himself getting pushed backwards and falling increasingly short with his jab and counter hook while taking heavy clubbing blows to the midsection and more punishment against the ropes. After a couple of rounds he looks increasingly ragged and out of ideas and is forced to turn the fight into a brawl, where he ironically has a bit of success with his short chopping uppercuts on the inside, some of which look to stun Takam. Takam nonetheless continues to bull forward, battering Wilder and pressing him back. Things get sloppy, with a lot of clinching and falling over from Wilder as he gets increasingly desperate and starts launching weird attacks from odd angles. Takam is unfazed. Fight goes to points and Wilder wins a robbery decision in Alabama looking like he's been run over by a meat truck. Takam gets jobbed once again.

 

Takam wouldn't even be Wilder's best defense let alone his best win. Stiverne knocks him out. Duhaupas in shape is better than Takam and would win. Takam is only better than Arreola and Washington. Szpilka and him could go either way. I can even see Audley possibly beating Takam, since Takam has no power.

Also, what has Takam done to make himself superior to Scott? Neither is good enough to be a threat to the top fighters in the division.

Takam wasn't competitive with any of the top fighters he fought. He couldn't hurt Povetkin, couldn't hurt Joshua, and got easily outboxed by Parker. He also wasn't outboxing Povetkin. Povetkin just took his time wearing Takam down before finishing him off. Povetkin could've ended it much earlier.

Scott and Takam both have Tony Thompson as their best wins. I could easily see Scott losing every round and going the distance with Parker, Povetkin, or Joshua.

Takam is fringe contender that gives his best, but he is what he is, which is a top 15-20 fighter. He can give top fighters rounds, but that's about it.

 

Takam is not a puncher,so he cant stop Wilder or Joshua if the fight continued or anybody half decent top 10ish HW,however he is durable and makes you work and takes at least 3-4 rounds while going the distance with you.Joshua lost like 1 round,which means that he did well,better than Povetkin and Parker [and im saying that was Povetkin fan actually].

 

Stiverne couldn't even KO Derrick Rossy, Duhaupas was outboxed by Erkan Teper and Audley crumbles whenever pressure is applied. Takam beats all of them.

Now you're just being one eyed. In no way was he easily outboxed by Parker, he put Parker under a lot of pressure, forced a pace with many exchanges and won 4-5 rounds. And watch the Povetkin fight again, he won the first four rounds before Povetkin adjusted his approach and punch selection.

On paper, yes. But Takam was jobbed by Perez, a better fighter than any win on Scott's resume.

... and frequently win rounds against them too, as proven by his fights against Povetkin and Parker. Something Scott hasn't shown at all.
Povetkin/Takam SCs (after the 9th): 86-84, 86-84, 86-84
Parker/Takam SCs: 115-113, 116-112, 116-112
Ortiz/Scott SCs: 120-105, 120-106, 119-106

Takam>>>>>Scott. Period.

 

Takam has more skills but Wilder has his get out of jail power. I reckon it would come into play late or he'd get a hometown decision.
