    Name everyone who you think beats him.

    Wlad, Povetkin, Fury, Pulev, Perez, Takam, Joshua, Thompson, Scott, Cunningham, Glazkov, Ustinov, Wach, Chambers, Jennings.

    Possibly beat him - Chisora(if he can avoids his power early, outworks & outboxes him), Chagaev(if motivated and in shape), Tarver why not???,

    Blue chip prospects who are capable of beating him now, or in the near future when they maximize their potential. Parker, Dinu, H.Fury, Rivas.

    Thoughts???:think

    If you are considering fighters who could possibly beat him. Add the name Lucas Browne.

    I was telling you all how overrated Stiverne was and that Wilder would beat him and via outboxing him. IKSAB:deal

    Don't think Browne can avoid his power, and his close fight with Rudenko leads me to think that he wouldn't have much of a chance against Stiverne...

    Fair comment. But I only said he had a chance and not that he was any kind of shoe-in to beat Stiverne.

    Well Wilder didn't really show that he was capable of boxing 12 rounds before, and because of his chin issues/weak opposition I went with Stiverne.. Though the result isn't all that shocking if you've seen his performance against an old Ray Austin. He can be outworked, and outboxed fairly easily. I think there are a few other fairly slick/active boxers who might have what it takes to beat Stiverne... If Kingpin was actually active enough he might be able to beat Stiverne, if Rossy could avoid be KO'd(unlikely) he could probably outwork Stiverne and win a decision.

    Not sold on Teper, and he's a brawler and that would probably work against him with Stiverne. Ortiz is on a drug ban, so I didn't list him... Price I should add to the plausible section, but Stiverne probably catches and KO's him eventually. Don't really like Breazeales chances, sure he could outwork and maybe outbox Stiverne for a while, but eventually he would get caught and KO'd... Nagy was actually hurting him ffs... Other than that I agree with your list :good

    I based my prediction off of the Kelvin Price-Wilder match, Wilder was actually trying to get rounds in and outboxing him at range, but the audience started booing and he ran out and KO'd him to make them happy. So I figured his trainer would encourage him to not go in there windmilling inviting being KTFO by Stiverne which is exactly what Arreola did.
