When will Deontay Wilder start fighting Euro-level heavyweights

Wilder looks decent, but his opposition is **** POOR even some of our BRITISH prospects have fought better opposition and that is saying something.

 

he should fight the man in your avatar to see how good he is

 

Isn't he fighting "B" level opponents already?

 

no

Wilder is in his 10th or 11th fight and is still fighting guys with no amatuer background who have sub .500 records

i wouldnt complain too much but this guy has an olympic medal and is trying to make noise

nothing wrong with developing and getting better but beating guys like this in one round doesnt get you better

getting rounds in vs guys who can test you builds toughness

he is gonna develope bad habits and be in for a big surprise when he faces a guy who doesnt go down from the first couple shots

 

I wouldn't be surprised if you're right. But they're building him up very slowly for good reasons. He didn't have hundreds of fights of amateur experience like Tyson Fury, Odlanier Solis, Robert Helenius or Kubrat Pulev. Also, he fought at 201 in the amateurs, and still needs to bulk up before he can take a big punch. And it's not like the guys he's fighting are much worse than the guys David Price is fighting.

But with someone as protected as he is, he can develop bad habits, and it may also just turn out that he doesn't have much by the way of heart or chin. But you find those things out after someone learns how to box, not before.

 

My boy here would school him

Or if not he is taking his 100% KO percentage away 100% of the time at least.

 

All I'm saying is that alot of you are much more patient with Wilder when you toss criticism after criticism on Fury.

 

I like your assessment and with that said When the K's are gone it probably will be the puleev's Solis's Helenius's and boystov's running the division Wilder will probably be on the outside of the action

 

Wilder doesn't go running his mouth, there's the difference.

 

For a guy with little amateur experience, he did have some NATIONAL success.... If not, he wouldn't have made it to the Olympics... He could use a little pop quiz at this point..

 

Wilder has zero chance against Vitali or Vlad. Boytsov would knock him out, Povetkin, same, Chambers would stop Wilder, Arreola, Adamek, you name it.
