Deontay gave Wlad a hard time in sparring

glenn mccrory gave tyson a hard time in sparring and look what a world beater he turned out to be tyson's downfall started in my town of edmonton. he pulled out of his fight with razor ruddock here a couple weeks before hand. he said he was sick but everyone here knows that was a load of crap. at legends gym tyson was sparring greg paige. paige laid him out sparring & tyson got up mad & stormed out of the gym. it had leaked to the local press & shortly after he pulled the plug on the fight. it was the first time tyson had ever been knocked down in any sort of fight. instead of rescheduling he went to japan & fought douglas & the rest is history. greg paige had broken tyson's aura of invisibility. in hindsight maybe he should have rescheduled here in edmonton because he beat ruddock twice after the douglas fight.

According to Jameel McCline who said he witnessed the Sparring between the 2.He also said he believes Deontay is gonna be the next great.Link: http://www.************.com/2012/11/mccline-deontay-wilder-is-the-next-great-saw-him-give-wladimir-hard-work/#more-135262 Wlad said that Deontay is very talented fighter whose fast and skilled and he feels Deontay gonna be a great heavyweight.The haters tried to discredit Wlads comments by saying "Oh Wlads just saying that cause he sparred with him"Then one of them showed a vid of Deontay struggling a little bit with a journeymen to try to further discredit Wlads message even though Deontay improved since that fight and Wlad himself got beat by 2 journeymen in Ross Purity and Lamon Brewster and went on to improve and be 1 of the 2 best heavyweights in the world. And now we hear someone outside of Wlad and his camp saying they were impressed by Deontay. I could hear the haters unscrewing the haterade now getting ready to throw that verbal fire filled with hate. i'm not discrediting wilder or wlad but this is only sparring...tye fields pushed sam peter & hasim rahman around sparring before the barrett fight. tye fields beat up arreola(klitschko training camp) sparring & got sent home after a week...sparring is good but it's a whole different ballgame when it's fight night...

The point i`m making is that Wilder is getting a lot of hate even though he`s hardly getting any attention from the media and hardly anyone is saying he`s gonna be the next big thing.True he has`nt fought anyone with a pulse yet but when he attempted to fight a fighter with a pulse by calling out Tyson Fury but yet he still got hated on. It's not hate he just hasn't done anything or beaten anybody worth talking about. He'll get attention when he fights somebody half decent ... for example if it had been wilder in there with seth mitchell instead of banks and he did a number on mitchell this place would be full of threads on wilder and that he's going places. But when he's in there with middleweights and old has beens or never weres you can't expect people to be talking about him. Anyway that's enough of this thread for me let him beat somebody good or even top 50 until then he doesn't deserve to be talked about.

First off, who even knows if this is true? It could be a complete fabrication or just a matter of subjective opinion. Second, it was sparing, which as most people know isn’t at all like fight night. Third, the problem with this is it’s almost impossible to give Wilder the benefit of the doubt on this. I will never disrespect any athlete who has the courage to step into the ring, so the kindest thing I can say about Wilder’s opponents is that none of them were anywhere near being contenders. You are trying to tell me he went from that level to all of a sudden giving the champion a hard time? I suppose it’s possible, but let’s just say it’s highly unlikely.

When he faces someone good we'll judge.

sparring doesnt mean much, everyone has good and bad days in the gym. its what you do on fight night that matters and so far wilder hasnt fought anyone who could even remotely put him to the test. trying to judge him regardless of the oposition i havent been impressed with his skills at all. he is an outstanding athlete though, young too and there arent too many quality prospects out there in the HW division imo. with the right trainer and alot of hard work he might become a force one day, but at this time its impossible to tell.

I`m suppose to be impress by Bika,Miranda and the other bums you mentioned?How about Bute getting Ko`ed by a bum name Andrade but the ref gave Bute time to wake up? Deontay Wilder is a bronze Medalist but yet he gets hated on even though hardly anybody is hyping him up.Bute beats bums but he gets the VIP treatment. Bika & Miranda are not exactly what I'd call bums & Andrade was a a good super middleweight at the time Bute fought him and was coming off K.O wins over Mack and Stieglitz. Reality is these guys are head & shoulders above anything Wilder has ever faced. His C.V is far superior to Wilders.

Hes fighting Kelvin Price next who makes it interesting based on his size. It is a step in the right direction I guess but Price is nearly 40. I felt Tor Hamer beat him, I am pretty sure I felt his fight with Julius Long could of gone either way and no disrespect to Julius Long but he is quite possibly the biggest, most useless heavyweight in boxing history. Price (not to be confused with David Price) is a big heavyweight, old & inexperienced and sure he has some power, all heavyweights do but he really doesn't hit very hard considering the sheer size of the guy if that makes sense. Its an interesting fight due to the size factor of both guys being giants but he really does need to just step it up. Hopefully in 2013 he does and fights the likes of, maybe even say Oliver McCall, Fres Oquendo or Juan Carlos Gomez.

and look what happened ... besides bute has a waaaaaaaay better CV than wilder has The point i`m making is that Wilder is getting a lot of hate even though he`s hardly getting any attention from the media and hardly anyone is saying he`s gonna be the next big thing.True he has`nt fought anyone with a pulse yet but when he attempted to fight a fighter with a pulse by calling out Tyson Fury but yet he still got hated on.

Bute was an olympic gold medalist and to be fair he had destroyed Miranda, Magee, Bika, Mendy and outboxed Glen Johnson who was still being very competitive with the best. All the above are bordering world level. Top 10 or there about at the time Who has Deontay Wilder fought anywhere near the level of the above? Has he even beat a top 100 ranked heavyweight?

Usually when a fighter gives a great fighter hard work in sparring that`s usually an indication that he has potential at the very least. A lot of people are saying Deaontay never fought anyone with a pulse but some of these same people were hyping up Bute before the Froch fight even though he never fought anyone with a pulse before the Froch fight. and look what happened ... besides bute has a waaaaaaaay better CV than wilder has

Its just sparring & these sort comments usually mean they did a tad better than they was probably expected too. Until I see him fight someone with a pulse, I won't be praising him highly and I am utterly convinced his chin is very bad.

I'm not going to base my opinion of him off fighting nobodies and the reports and hearsay of others.

Just sparring.... Let's actually see him fight someone decent.
