Haye, Lewis, Peter's, Williams, Sanders,Chagaev, Chisora say hi. I think even Ibragimov could beat him, then theirs Fury... Lets see if Wilder can even get past an old Povetkin first.

Originally posted by Cutthroat View PostWilder is only 3 inches shorter than Valuev, Wilder beats him in every department, power, speed, reflexes. It's the combo of height/power that gives Haye so much trouble. Valuev is on par with guys like Ruiz & Holyfield, Holyfield should even have a W over him.
Haye has to punch upwards, he's barely 6'1 or so not 6'3, it takes away a ton of his power and makes his offense predictable. That's why he fought so timid against Wlad/Valuev, he struggles to land against taller fighters, he can't afford to take repeated flush shots.
Your'e talking about a sparring session that took place years ago, Wilder has progressed a lot since then.
Szpilka got KTFO, and it's not like he's bad either, he's easily top 10. He's a very mobile southpaw, styles make fights and it threw Wilder off for a bit until he dropped a bomb on his chin. Szpilka was moving at a pace he couldn't keep up, he eventually slowed down.
-Szpilka was a top 10 HW when Wilder fought him
-Stiverne was a top 5 HW
-Scott is a top 15 HW
Molina & Duahapaus (Both top 20) had big wins recently too.
If anything Wilder's resume is underrated.
Haye has beaten numerous big guys - right from his cruiserweight to heavyweight days. There's no evidence that he fights less well vs big guys - Only the Klitschko fight, but Wilder is nowhere near Klitschko level in terms of IQ, defense or footwork. He's also a lot less authoritative and skillwise just on another planet.
Haye is 6'3 - I'm 6'1 and met him in person. He's a good bit taller than me.
The sparring session is like 2 years ago, and we haven't seen much to suggest Wilder has progressed. He looked total garbage in his last fight against a limited opponent.

Wilder has struggled to go through his own resume of NON top 10 rated HW's (barring one!) undefeated! His resume is a joke & he fights on equal terms with stiffs like Molina. He is lucky to have decent power which is the equalizer otherwise he would be an absolute non entity at HW..
Prime:
Povetkin
Fury
Byrd
Rahman
Sanders
Chagaev
Ibragimov
Peter
Haye
Pulev
Are all more proven than Wilder & I would favour most of them & the rest 50/50.

The amount of heat coming Klitschko's way after a loss at a very old age is mindboggling. The butthurt stemming from the long reign of the klits runs deep on NSB.
