If you’re a fighter and you can’t read the Wilder blueprint, you probably can’t read a Dr. Seuss story…

Just because someone knows what a fighter is going to do doesn't mean they can stop the fighter from doing it. EVERYONE knows Wilder is going to throw the right hand, the questions are; can a fighter avoid it for 12 rounds, and can they survive after they've been hit?

Strat from Queens

Hi Adelaide, is that you?

[wrecksracer]

So what?

In the decade since, he hasn't been knocked down by punchers like Wladimir Klitschko, Dillian Whyte, or Derek Chisora

There is no question that he has excellent defense. His footwork is on point. He rarely gets hit flush. Vlad didn't come close to hitting him. He outclassed Whyte and Chisora. This isn't a golden age of heavyweights.

is this really what you’re hanging your hat on to try and discredit Fury’s chin? A knock down in a fight nearly a decade ago despite never being stopped? Should we also discredit Canelo’s chin because he was rocked badly by a lightweight a decade ago? Or what about Oscar's chin when he got dropped by a 135 pounder named Narciso Valenzuela? Cmon guy.

Fury rarely gets hit flush. It's not that his chin is great, it's that he sees shots coming and rarely gets hit flush. Wilder's power? He fought a bunch of bums. Look at the way Malik Scott took a dive. You can't act like this is a golden age of heavyweights. Wilder was matched soft.

Strat from Queens needs to find another sport to be a fan of. That was embarrassing.

I’ll say it again, any top ten ranked HW knows the Wilder blueprint, he won’t win against anyone in the top ten rank…
