I think Wilder's power is real man He nearly had Stiverne out early but I assume he broke his hand in that very exchange because he didn't throw the right much after that and wasn't able to hurt Stiverne after that
I'd love to be proved wrong because everyone loves a puncher, but I'nm not yet a believer. I guess we'll see over the course of the next year
And if Wlad wins? Wlads still a bum buster right? Some people saying Jennings destroys Wlad and when Wlad wins 8-9 rounds he still gets no respect from the haters. When Wlad fights Wilder it will be a prime fighter fighting a faded fighter and Wlad will win and get zero respect! The guys praising Wilder for beating Stiverne but never giving credit to Wlad for his whole career are clearly biased.
Stiverne was hurt multiple times in that fight. He even tackled Wilder at one point early in the fight to avoid losing balance after a shot. Wilder CAN hit. I honestly do think his power is legit. He also suffered a verified (and serious) hand injury in the Stiverne fight, but he sucked it up.
To be fair, very very few said Jennings would win Most thought that he would KO Jennings early And I think thats why Wlad is getting so much flack In my opinion, most people got a false impression of Wlad after his KO over Pulev Personally, I thought Wlad looked more or less normal
I won't be shocked if Wilder loses before he fights Wlad they have made it clear they are not looking to fight Wlad until 2016 sometime.
Jennings won the fight? Huh? He landed no meaningful punches, whereas Wlad landed several hard shots. Jennings just took them well and was game but he certainly didn't do enough to take the title.
