Is Wilder’s career over?

[BangEM]

He’s going to be 38 next year and he’s never going to beat anyone with a pulse.

He fought 40 bums in 45 fights and had no single unification fight.

I think he needs following fights to complete his legacy as the biggest bums beating bum in HW history:

Molina 2
Duahapas 2
Spilzka 2
Ortiz 3
Stiverne 3
Breazeale 2

P.S: watch Wilder fans led by the dirty nonce, RJJ-Nonce stalk the thread.

If he can't best any good fighters anymore like Luis Ortiz and stiverne he can fight another 40 bums and have a 80-1-2 record, that looks mightily impressive.
He will always have power to ko bums

Spot on, mate.

Possibly...another broken hand, 2 brutal sustained beatings and a temple shot KO at his age are going to be difficultto come from.Those stamina and balance issues that showed up so early in the rematch and Trilogy for all we know might be signs of age/damage already. He definitely doesn't have time to rebuild so I suspect they"ll give him a soft touch in his return followed by a Ruiz showdown where he can possibly get stopped again. Not a bad thing for his health if he decides to call it day imo.

He’s got at least one nice paycheck left if he wants it. He’s no worse than 50/50 against some of the high ranking fighters in the division so he might have 2 big checks remaining.

How big are those pay cheques since he’s not a draw?

Broken hand?

[just the facts]

Like AJ, very likely his best days are behind him.

Wilder vs Joshua is still a fight folks will pay for if Wilder is looking for a last hurrah.

But, the truth is that Deontay is one highlight reel KO away from getting any fights he wants.

If he wants to keep fighting, he definitely can.

I think Fury has the truth of it...just because Wilder hasn't figured out how to beat Tyson doesn't mean Deontay won't spark EVERYBODY ELSE out.

He can continue, He’s basically in the same position AJ will be after the Usyk rematch when Usyk beats him again.

It will depend how much Wilder wants to continue knowing he can’t beat Fury, who is the man of the era. I’d imagine he might not, not for long anyway. He might want to end his career on a win

AJ will have a similar decision to make when Usyk beats him again easily. It’ll be a realisation he can’t beat the man most consider number 2, so will he continue?

Wilder and AJ have a lot to offer the division, they will just never be the top dog.

Wilder would still make AJ leave the ring on a stretcher, maybe Usyk too if he caught him. So he has plenty to offer.
