deontay wilders power?

[Hop]

... a little sloppy on the defense ...

Ah. Concerns me to hear you say that (respecting your posts as I do). Hope he really works on it, b/c it's no doubt going to come into play against quality competition. Wouldn't be surprised if that was one of the aims vs. Liakhovich, but the blasted kid just keeps layin' 'em out!

He has fought absolutely nobody, and has the most padded record I've ever seen.

Ducked out of a fight with Chisora, we would've found out a lot about his power there.

Hahaha, that my friend is a great analogy.

Thanks, man. Just what came to mind after a dizzying day in NSB.

lol. Okay, was wrong about that one telling me anything new.

Liakhovich was cold coming in and had been inactive for 17 months, so the kayo was predictable, although I thought Sergei had a pretty good chin. He could be shot at 37.

Either way, the kid showed a good jab and a hellright. Seems to have good speed. Needs to be tested against tougher opposition before any conclusion can be given.

Hop.....he's gonna have to fight someone who attacks him before we'll really know how good his defense is. I just saw some openings in one of his other fights; but he was busy knocking the guy out. So, what're ya gonna do?

Honestly we can't tell until he fights someone who's there to win

I mean he hits hard, but David Price was knocking fools out for fun before he got in with TT who just walked through his shots basically

Wilder is a worry because he seems to have even LESS than Price does behind his power, and if an opponent can handle a few shots off him and hit him back what will wilder do?

Haha. Yeah, I got ya'. Keep those quality posts coming, friend.

He's fought, what? 25 times now? Never gone past the 3rd round if I recall. Either step up or go down as this decade's Edwin Valero.

Ive got a strong feeling that his power wont evaporate when he comes along guys with strong chins but will just have to wait and find out. The way hes knocked guys out though he looks pretty heavy handed, very strong and lean and delivers them very quickly for his size. they really need to step up the opposition by now because he hasn't even made it to the fifth round yet in 29 fights

[trfcdan86]

Who's he got next?

He's gotta be goin in against the Chisoras or Thompsons of the division next.

Who's he got next?

I was so hoping for Tyson Fury, and I would've backed Wilder. Now that that's off the table, I just want it to be a top ten guy. Please, it's time.
