Wider UD. I like Tue but there are no arguments for Wilder who is primitive but has great conditions, cardio, can control the distance and his punches are dangerous. David would be helpless. A tall outfighter is a ring nightmare for him. Klitschkos, Fury, Lewis, Akinwande, Terrell, Wilder - every fight would look the same
Tua lost every round to Oquendo before bailing himself out. Oquendo had no offense and about half of the athleticism of Wilder. Tua would basically be a dream match up for Arreola. Arreola would box just well enough to take rounds off Tua and was tough enough to probably not get stopped. First WBC Mexican heavyweight champ for the vacant belt if Tua’s timeline would’ve lined up with his.
Oquendo is underrated he lost alot of close decisions that should've gone his way most felt he beat Byrd 7-5 as did I. I'm not saying Wilder couldn't beat Tua but I just disagree with you bigging up Stirverne I don't think much of him as a fighter in all honestly he was so brief being a notable Heavyweight and he didn't show anywhere near enough to be rated as such. Wilder would give Tua problems with his height and reach and he could make Tua shell up if he hits Tua hard enough with that right hand. But I do think a peak Tua does present a more dangerous opponent than Stirverne and that's all I'm trying to say honestly.
Tua is much better.. but there would just be too much reach disadvantage. For once in his life, Wilder will look like Ali.
Tua by stoppage for me. Wilder doesn't have the back up arsenal Lewis had not to mention he's not remotely as skilled. Tua gets close too many times.
