"Bronze Bomber" Wilder vs "The Fighting Marine" Tunney in a war: Who wins?

Wilder showed tons of heart against Fury, but I still think Tunney can frustrate and overwhelm him.

Fùck yea! Way too slick!!! :haha: The upside entertainment wise of Wilder is his flaws and one trick pony offense make him fun to watch.

Wilder too slick of a bruva. Fùck yea! Way too slick!!!

WAR Tunney!!! :headbang:

Honestly Wilder is just to big for Tunney he would be a modern day cruiser really. Any change of heart after tonight?

Freedom. :boxing:

And that would be a major accident....Tunneys defense would get him plastered by the Wilder today who is bigger and better,even with his flaws he makes Tunney look like a character out of a one to many to drink brawl like style /hands down. His point fighting run /tag and dance simply wont work with power punching Wilder,he could turn your lights oput very quickly if you don't have PROPER defense....footwork may LOOK good but against a 6'7 athletic one shot killer ,well like I sdaid it was a big mistake thinking the twinlkle towe Tunney would last with such a speedy power puncher. Your last sentence sums this match up ...up. I think Tunney can outwork him on the inside. Plant his feet and put his head in his chest and roll and throw.

I havent seen enough of Tunney but I know he was smart and tactically sound. Thing is, Wilder is just too big and does hit hard enough to hurt Tunney. It's a tough one. Does the greatness and smarts of Tunney beat a c level fighter with power?

The generational gap is too wide to make a decision on this. It's just gonna boil down to who's disliked less. In seriousness though, Tunney enjoyed a size advantage over most of the guys he fought. Fighting modern HWs would probably not work out well for Tunney.

I voted Tunney would KO Wilder so I could vote the opposite of Tyrone Biggums. Tunney would be way too slick and fast for him. Tunney had those fast twitch muscles.

None of these old school guys were real heavyweights by today's standards. Tunney would be more evenly matched with LHWs or very small CWs.

I think I accidentally chose Tunney My answer is that it wouldn't be fair. Tunney was 190lbs, 6', same day weigh ins. Today that's a super middleweight. The real question is who wins between Tunney and Ward, Kovalev, Stevenson Wilder is a giant compared to Tunney. Ward, Kov, Adonis are around 185-190lbs on fight night and around 6' tall. That's more of a match. Wilder slaughters Tunney
