wilder is an amateur with tremendous power and a good chin.

Depends. Lennox Lewis uses over hand rights and right hooks while mostly is kept within Mid range. Wlad fights mid range with a straight right hand ready is mid range because his money punch is the left hook before Stewart and after him. Wilder on the other hand completely relies on the jab and right hand, similar to hearns. Wlad fought mid range???? He was always at a distance using his jab to probe and waiting for his opponent to make a mistake. He basically did the same thing that Wilder did last night with none of the athleticism.

Yeah Wilder has long arms and a good hard jab when he uses it properly. He has the potential to win fights based solely on his jab . There was a lot of pawing with his jab in this last fight. But again that power is a big equalizer.

Emmanuel Stewart would make his style Similar to Thomas Hearns and Wilder would be an ATG IMO. Manny Steward might have tried to mold him into another Lennox or Wlad. Futch would work on giving him a complete outside and inside game.

i said im not knocking him :)

He does fight in an amateur style. Probably the influence of Mark Breland. It's gotten him this far so you can't knock it too much. But how I wish Eddie Futch was still around to mold him into a complete pro.
