LOL, Wilder is going to keep consistently knocking people out until he meets Wlad. The only other two people who can possible beat him are Perez (style/chin/power), Fury (Height/heart). The guy is a legitimate knock out artist. What's more he is tall, we haven't really seen to many like that, but when we have they have been forces to reckon with. When he knocked out Liakovich like he did I realized exactly how hard he hits.... Moral of the story hate him if you want to, Wlad will beat him, others may have a chance, but HE IS a beast, and soon (as he is quickly moving up the ranks) people are going to have to start eating their words.
Id take Wlad Pulev,Fury, Chisora, Stiverne, Thompson, Povetkin, Solis, Ruiz Jr, Perez, Takam, Charr, Wach and Joshua to beat him
Wlad is the only one who beats him as a sure thing, Thompson 5 years ago may have took him a couple rounds, Perez is a contender who has skill (needs more pro fights). I was tempted to add Chisora to my list but.... Povetkin, Solis, Ruiz, Takam, Charr, Wach, Pulev, and Stiverne and Joshua all walk in and get knocked out. Maybe not all 1st round but eventually all of them will make the mistake and walk at him. Like I said he is a knock out artist one solid hit and you're done. I am not a fan of Wilder, but I know the game. *edit* give Bryant Jennings some more experience and he will be a solid fighter that could possible beat him, he's shaping up quickly.
I'm not sure if Perez beats him. He is very short and not fast enough to get in either. Yes, he has a good chin, but he doesn't seems to be very mobile which could be a problem against someome like Wilder. In my opinion Wilder vs. Perez could go either way. Solis has the skills but he is so unmotivated that I have to question him as a legitimate contender. I believe that he could evade getting hit and knock Wilder out but nothing is out of question now after his fight with Thompson. As for Povetkin and Pulev, although they have different styles, they are both on another level to Wilder and would beat him.
you base this on 90% of his competition being ranked over 100 in the world and the other 10% still not even in the top 30? atsch fact is, Wilder is so protected its almost embarrassing.....he hasnt even headlined a card anywhere....not even a FNF card coming up....he's a sham
larry holmes got knocked down against kevin issac and got off the deck to beat him...sconniers lost get over it
Wilder does not need to re-match him. I would like to see the first fight however. Anyone care to re-up that one? Maybe a vimeo or dailymotion since a youtube version likely gets deleted quicker
Sconiers, who is not anywhere ranked, knocked Wilder down with a jab......... Wilder refused to fight Thompson, Chisora, Fury, Pulev, ad infinitum.............looks as if Helenius will knock Wilder out as he is healing up after the surgeries. Wilder will run from his also..............Helenius easily beat the hell out of Lyahkovich, knocked him badly, it was sad.............
No I base this on having watched many contenders come up. You're right wilder has been protected. Nothing will change the fact that the guy hit's like a semi-truck though. Every fighter that I listed tends at one point or another to walk in with zero head movement in a straight line. 90% of the 90% of his competition also didn't last more than 3 minutes, so it's really not like he's been struggling with them. And as far as his chin goes well it is still untested. I joke about Sconiers being a fatass but let's not forget sconiers took Razor Ruddock to war in 2001. Please let me know if you have tape of someone else knocking Liakhovich (a former champion) out like that.
