    am I wrong to have the opinion that Ron Lyle would beat deontay wilder . I'm taking Lyle to win around the 8th or earlier I find wilder to be well pretty average

    If he could put foreman down and hurt him several times who had a better chin than wilder then i have no problem with picking lyle to win by stoppage

    Well, if featherfisted Ali could TKO Lyle, I have no problem seeing Wilder stopping him. Especially when Wilder carrying knockout power late (Molina, Szpillka, Duhaupas, Arreola and Ortiz >= 8 rounds).

    I'm still deciding. I want to see Wilder in one more higher level bout.

    The prediction should be Lyle stalking Wilder down inside of 6, if he couldn´t, late carrying power Wilder taking him out.

    Wilder 100%
    Late ish stopage or comfortable on points.
    Wilder is far better than given credit for.
    He's got all the tools and a priceless ability to find a way to win.
    Lyle struck me as someone good enough to fight at elite level but maybe not win at elite level.

    No you are not wrong. Lyle would destroy that over-hyped fraud. This isn't one of those garden variety stiffs and overrated mediocrities Wilder pads his record with. Lyle doesn't just knock Wilder out, he knocks him out brutally.

    I'd take the view that this is the sensible way to approach the question.
