    Who wins over 12

    Does Wilder become the first to crack his chin or does Chuvalo take Wilder's best and catch him Windmilling

    There aren’t many champions I’d pick Chuvalo to beat but he’s one of them. Think he could wear wilder down. Still wouldn’t bet on it

    Wilder stops him in 6 or 7 rounds.

    I think both have a real chance. Chuvalo needed to be hit with combos to be stopped. I can't see wilder doing that unless he visibly hurts him and does his windmill stuff. I'm not to familiar with all of Chuvalo's career, are there any moments where he hurt by one punch?

    Well does anyone think for a nanosecond a guy like Chuvalo is winning a decision over a Haymon fighter on the scorecards? He'd need 2 or 3 knockdowns for a draw.

    So Wilder wins the decision but he is the guy not absorbing the punishment well---so he would lose his next fight by coming out flat from the punches and physical toll he takes fighting a guy like George Chuvalo.

    Wilder despite his flaws he has a championship heart and will to win. Chuvalo doesn't have the power to stop Wilder . Chuvalo though absorbs Wilder vaunted right hands but is stopped by cuts in a bruising battle.

    Chuvalo couldn't get it done against topflight competition except for his lucky kayo of Quarry.

    A prime Quarry has more than just a remote chance of stopping Wilder.

    This seems a likely result to me.

    The most durable top heavyweight in history in a lot of people s opinons.But im not seeing him beating Wilder.Hed put pressure on Wilder with a brutal body attack but his rock solid chin is severly tested .
    By the Tenth his face is badly busted up and the ref leads a dissapointed George back to his corner .

    I have been as hard on Wilder as anybody, but he should definitely be favored here.

    For all of his durability, the best punchers that Chuvalo fought stopped him.

    Wilder can go the distance, he has heart, and his power is right up there.

    He should win this!
