Mercer KO. He'd take Wilders punches because they're too few and far between to stop him, he'd catch Wilder and finish him brutally
Not sure if one punch can deter Mercer. I'll go Ray. Then he'd lose to Fury, who probably wins 11 rounds , gets dropped again in the rematch to which Wilder becomes champ again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Interesting fight, Mercer wasn't just a toughman. He had good jab and could outbox Wilder. I need to see Deontay in more fights against good opponents. His fights with Fury and Ortiz showed that he's not unbeatable.
I'll go with a decision win for Wilder. I think his movement forces Mercer to use his feet in there. And he won't. Or, certainly not enough. And I don't think Ray is a good enough finisher if he got the guy hurt he'd get him out of there. On the contrary---I see him stunning this guy and then fighting stupid. Kind of like the first round of the Holmes fight. Too many guys outboxed Ray and I think he does not himself in top shape for this guy and drops a decision in an otherwise winnable fight.
