    Just read this fight is in talks. If it happens does Sprott has a chance or is it another early ko win for Wilder?

    This is a joke right? That would be a huge, huge step back after Liakhovich.

    This will tell us nothing about Wilders credentials

    Rubbish fight , Wilder is going to carry on fighting bums until hes 40-0.

    I wouldnt say hes a rubbish fighter as he didn win a bronze at Bejing, but there has to be a reason why they are not stepping him up now.

    Looked like he was doing ok when he was sparring Haye but its a lottery when he steps up because the way he fights and the power he has someone is going to go and its 50 percent chance that its him

    If he fights Sprott as a tune up for Arreola then i wont complain but he needs to fight at least a dereck chisora, tyson fury or tony thompson if he gets through them two fights.

    That can still take a while.
    In the Haye vs Harrison bout it took until the 3rd round before the fist punch landed. :!:

    yeah you are right ,you did me there...

    i have often wondered why heavyweights dont do the old windmill like Wilder does because the effects are awesome..i know it will catch up with him in the end but until then i am loving Wilder

    I watched that with the sound off and scored it 10-9 to the kazak.

    Wilder got a soft point for number seven he missed, i had him up until the last round but the Kazak just nicked it.

    Lets be honest he wernt great either not for the standard of international amateur boxing.

    WHat the ****, Michael Sprott whos 10 years past it and was never all that in the first place, what a joke. I remember Roman Greenberg battering him in sparring.
