    Curious what y'all think. Seems to me like he's mentally done, but he's still getting offered money, with Okolie and Jalalov being two names recently mentioned.

    What do you think?

    He shouldn't. He's a shell of himself, and the knock out losses will only get more brutal.......... on second thought he should give it a couple more shots before hanging it up.

    I suspect he will, he'll hang around for too long as he likes the attention boxing brings him and in the end he'll probably need the money the man has 8 kids and counting and that's a lot of alimony he'll be paying every month, that with his lavish lifestyle, he'll likely end up broke and make at least one comeback.

    He has gone completely silent on social media. That Zhang KO might have been the wake up call he so very much needed. The man was absolutely delusional and this could have been reality check.
    But I think he will be back. I don´t think he can let go just yet.

    By now his right hand can only tear down fighters like Helenius. The rest of his poor skills have flown away in the last fight with Parker. As top fighter is definetely finished.

    Yes. They just need to go back to the basics and find opponents who stand still and let him land that big right hand of his.

    I hope not he doesn't seem to have any fire in his belly anymore and his best weapon his right hand he seems to be cautious of throwing it now. So if he isn't willing to commit to throwing his right hand i don't see much point of him fighting, because outside of that punishing right hand there isn't much else to Wilder that makes him exciting in future match ups to be quite frank.

    Hopefully. He shouldn't let boxing down.
    He's potentially going into a very entertaining period in his career.

    With the way this sport works, you can never say never.

    I think he should call it a day. His time to be champion is over and it’s only a matter of time before they start using him to prop up a Young up and comer

    two brutal beatings from fury and a KO loss to Zhang should be a signal. He’s made good money, hopefully he took care of it. I think he could use his brand and personality and take it where he’s not getting hit in the head
