Wladimir Klitschko vs. Deontay Wilder

[Bigg Rigg]

As much as I want Wilder to ko Wlad, I can't say he does anything to him yet. Need to see more from him.

Wlad would stop Wilder if he fought him but I doubt he would. Wilder is a puncher.

[The Gambler1981]

Fortune favors the bold~

Wlad will probably play is safe and jab from the outside which could win him the fight no doubt, but if he is using in a scared manner and Wilder comes back with his straight right to hurt him I know how that is ending.

Either way I think someone is getting hurt and carried out early. To me it really comes down to who wins the first move because it will either be Wlad jabs and Wilder comes back nailing him with a right which will put Wlad in trouble or the same thing but Wilder misses that right then takes a straight right or left hook from Wlad depending on where Wilder ends up but either would be fight enders.

Wlad is the one with options though so he is certainly the favorite but Wilder is a live dog because he has attributes that could cause Wlad issues.

Wilder's chin and footwork are awful. Wlad stuns him with a jab and knocks him out with a straight right.

Wilder's chin and footwork are awful. Wlad stuns him with a jab and knocks him out with a straight right.

Bad logic.The guys who have beaten Wlad haven't had the best footwork and Wlad's chin isn't exactly reliable-which is why ANYTIME his opponents close the distance-he holds, wrenches down on their necks, etc...Wilder wouldn't need to close distance or get too close.

If Wlad jabs too much-he will get sparked by a right hand. Wlad will have to throw a lot of leads.

You guys are making it sound like a big puncher doesn't have a chance. Is Wilder inexperienced-yes, but so is every fighter until they are given the chance.
This is a very winnable fight for both guys and a puncher like Wilder has a chance against Wlad-who gets edgy and burns out if things aren't going his way.
Wilder is no slow plodder like Wach or a feather duster like Tony Thompson.
First good punch that lands on Wlad will likely spell the end and Wilder has power that hasn't been seen for a while. Is he elite technically-no, but he has height, reach, decent handspeed and is athletic enough to set up a nightmare for Wlad. Not saying he wins, but he definitely has a chance-a better one than the Leapais of the world!

Easy fight for Klitschko. Windmiller comes in swinging like an amateur and gets sparked out within 3 rounds.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Wlad inside 4. Wilder is nowhere near having the experience he needs to be competitive in this.

[mathed]

Wilder catches him with the reach and Wlad takes a nap.....same reason he didn't want to fight Valuev, same thing with Fury, he doesn't like tall competition.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

It's hard to really tell how good Wilder is.

I suspect he is a bit of a bum. He's just fought 30 uber-bums and one of his friends.

Wlad wanted to fight Valuev, Don King stood in the way.

Wlad has fought quite a few opponents close to his own height (McCline, Thompson X2, Austin, Wach, Jefferson, etc.)
