    If there's take down involved, Wilder is toast. His toothpick legs will have zero chance of avoiding a takedown

      Fury struggling doesn’t mean Wilder will.

        this article made me chuckle, wilder must be trolling here

        ngannou is a boxer now, the fight sells itself, no need to complicate things further at all

        not sure if the saudis will be so willing if the fury fight did so poor ppv or maybe they really dont care at all even if the fight totally bombs

        still wilder v ngannou would surely do very well in vegas too, it would be an exciting matchup now

          Hearn's not talking about boxing. He said Malik mentioned that Wilder would be interested in a mixed-rules match. That would involve boxing rules and MMA rules. No way Wilder should try that.

              Hearn's trying to stir some **** up to get Wilder to take the bait. Then Wilder gets KFTO from Ngannou and he can say, see? That's why we never wasted our time with Wilder.

                I don't get this. Wilder just isn't going to fight Ngannou at mixed rules. He is too scared to fight anyone good in boxing even. Why would he risk that??

                  Yea Wilder wouldn't have a chance in MMA but Jon Jones has toothpick legs and he ain't that bad

                    Just make it kickboxing if your mixed rules fights is either boxing with kicks or MMA w/o grappling it's just kickboxing & again if your doing crossovers kickboxing is the middle ground

                      With proper training he would be dangerous. Wilder with 4 onces gloves is crazy sht. His legs would be dangerous because they are long as hell and explosive. Anderson Sylva is a bit built like Wilder.
                      So yes Wilder could break his legs but his frame would make him dangerous.

                      Of course N'gannou kills him in the cage.
