    Yeah bro, keep trying with damage limitation, or maybe he was never been good to begin with ? There is a reason why he never face a live dog in his career.

    No one can take you Fury/Wilder(you are essentially the same), claiming how Wilder is the hardest puncher of all time, how no one will beat him, except for Fury, how he will KO anyone, and then after Parker absolutely destroys him, and this was the same Wilder that KO Helenius in 1 round, you start your damage limitation. Oh get the ***** out of here with that excuse.

    A laughing mockery.

    Biggest fraud in the HW division, comes February 17th. your hero going to share the same faith as this fraud.

    BTW i can claim that Wilder was ruined by Ortiz 2, even though he win, and he wasn't the same against Fury 2 and 3. Oh, he was clearly slower, not as deadly and mean as usually, not as aggressive, blq, blq, blq, blq, blq. You get it, all the b.c. that you are spitting now.

    Wilder worst showing was against Fury 2.

    You are as good as your opponent allows you to be, so get gud.

    I don't see how fighting a beast like Zhang tells us that. Wilder needs to look like crap against a level of guy he used to look good against. I dunno someone like that Turkish guy Aron something or that Italian dude that beat up Kownacki recently.

    I read they are featured not that they are fighting each other. I favor Zhang

    Would rather hrgovic Zhang 2 for the vacant ibf or either vs Parker

    This might actually be the hardest Wilder gets hit since sparring Wladimir years ago.

    According to PBO's rankings, Wilder has eight wins against top 14 opponents, ranging from 5th-14th. Franklin isn't top 14 but he would fit the bill as a benchmark. Ortiz 3 would be very interesting. Demirezen would be good but I think he's retired.

    This thread to me shows how overrated Zhang has become.

    Will end soon.

    The Wilder we saw last month would probably have lost to a few of those bums.

    He used to be a limited fighter but against Parker he looked a finished fighter. Wouldn't have been able to punch through a wet paper bag.

    Zhang has 2 wins over Joyce and a moral victory over Hrgovic.

    That alone makes his resume more impressive than most of the division lol.

    True but it shows how bad the division is if THAT is enough to have arguably the best resume.

    Wilder to be bent over like a ginger, pasty, 5 foot lad in a Detroit jail. The big Chinaman wins this one by brutal KO within 3 rounds.

    No damage limitation here , his performance against parker was lousy and he fully deserved to loose .

    Calling him a bum or dosser his entire career - i will renounce due to respect for usyk .

    When we call wilder after 47 hw pro fights and being world champion for 5 years a bum , how the hell must we call usyk after his laughable 5 hw pro fights against 4 opponents where only aj was noteworthy ?

    Will the Saudis pay big for this? Thats the only way I see Wilder accepting this challenge. He signed a multi fight deal, maybe his purse is already guaranteed.

    If it s up to Wilder, considering his track record, someone like Franklin, Chisora, Charr, is most likely.

    Wilder should fire Scuba Scott, he regressed under him, wont beat anybody good.

    As of now, Zhang dominates what should be a boring fight, with little action. But if Wilder improves somehow, he could land enough to get a decision.

    Both have proven chins, but Zhang is the one tending to land the KO.

    Wilder should work with Ronnie Shields or Derrick James

    At least 40 of those were straight up stiffs who most of us in this forum would beat in a bar brawl.
