His managers are picking fight after fight sloppy puncher bums who doesn't have pop. How many big punchers have Wilder faced? Dehydrated slow feet Stiverne fat fuk? Thats all. His managers doesn't put him against guys who can punch. Duhaupas? Sloppy puncher and slow as fuag. Szpilka? Soccer holigan. Molina? Landed zero punches to Joshua. Malik Scott? Pathetic performance against Luis Ortiz. Arreola? Washed up fighter whos in weed and bangs hollywood whores, belly fat terrible stamina. Wawrzyk? High guard, no punch, average movement and got brutally KTFO'd by Povetkin that Wilder avoids like a plague.
Wilder's management have been very careful about protecting him and steering him on the path of least-resistance. We were talking about Wilder's level of opposition back in 2011 and amazingly 6 years later we are still asking the same questions.
Yep, Always liked Wilder and fully believe he wants to fight all of them and prove he is the best. But i agree with Baconmaker and think his managment have carefully steered him away from danger while at the same time convincing their gullible champion that they are actually doing the opposite of that and they giving him the best possible opposition available. Saying that, they were in Russia ready to take on one of the biggest threats in the division and the Russian and his team blew it by doing what Russians do by taking Peds and being not very good at hiding it. So team Wilder were there and ready. But they were there under pressure, its not a fight his team wanted even if he did and they couldnt believe their luck when they got the chance to leg it back to America. But then Wilders team need to be given credit for their uncomparable skills of how to make the best of loop holes to get this streak of mandatorys and poor opposition. It is a skill in itself. Sorry Gmurphy it seems ive near enough said what you just said then.
I rate Wilder skills-wise. Top echelon heavy. But yes, you have to think his management knows something which is why they've taken the path that they have.
His handlers are well aware on how fragile and delicate Wilder's jaw is. I believe Wilder genuinely would like the big fights albeit erroneously, however his handlers have the final say in the matter and know better than to feed their primary cashflow to the lions, only for it to be shredded to bits, part by part, piece by piece.
And whats worse is im not sure how much better Wilder is getting. He is still fighting with a massivly flawed wild open style where he lunges in with his gaurd none existent while he plants his legs in the strangest of positions. He is getting away with it now but it is getting harder to avoid real threats and his team just are not improving him at all just guiding him away from these real threats.
Wilders handlers know fully well he's a KO accident waiting to happen. They're smart people no doubt. They will milk his belt for as long as possible. They KNOW Wilder won't become a PPV star, he's virtually unknown in his home country. Which is appalling considering he's a black American who could potentially be a super star if he didn't have such awful technique and a better chin; problem is no one is taking him seriously and the few people who know Wilder in the States know he's feasting on tomato cans.
I agree, as long as he is been taking weak opposition on this C level, they are more than likely looking for a big money fight against the Vlad Joshua winner, or possibly fury Cash out with a banG ! But then again, Wilder may be able to handle fury. But Joshua or Vlad, either one, takes him out Making fights for wilder with the title has to be like carefully walking through a minefield for his managers
What's funny is that Wilder will be the B-side to the winner and won't even make that much money. He had a chance to unify with Parker and collect a bargaining chip but he blew it.
