    After having seen Wilder's performances since his fights against Fury and now Zhang, I personally think that Wilder has had a huge downfall for various reasons:

    1. Tyson Fury beatings- Many times, fighters are simply not the same after having received beatings of such magnitude.

    2. Mlik Scott's training- Seems like Wilder has applied noting that Scott has been teaching Wilder (too much hype in training clips)

    3. Father Time

    In Wilder's performance against Zhang, I was highly disappointed, yet faced with the 3 facts that have finished him off in his career.

    Your thoughts
    The "Father Time" meme makes me cringe every time

    Why not just say he's too old or doesn't have it anymore.

        Yes, he should hang it up, unless maybe he wants to try to see if an Ngannou fight would sell. Dunno if either of them want it now though.

          I am sure Ngannou loves the paychecks and would fight in the sport again.

          Honestly I don't really care who Wilder fights, I do not want to see him fight anymore. I have seen enough.

            I think this could be his last play.

            Imagine the embarrassment if he loses to Ngannou

              The path he chose after his first fight with Stiverne was a sensational one but not one that had him perfecting his craft. He had some spectacular knockouts and made a good deal of money doing it. That's over now, he's lost the physical edge that made him special and he hasn't developed the skill to fight without that edge. Enjoy your retirement in good health, don't waste your health chasing more money.

                  He could still potentially beat some top names but zhang was far too smart..

                  Not enough credit has been given to zhang as he was looking for that right hook counter everytime wilder went to throw a big right hand

                  Superb display by zhang

                  On a side not though his power looked lacking against Zhang but thats maybe just due to Zhang again

                    Wilder needs to retire, but who are the other two? Fury and Joshua? They still got a few fighs left in them...certainly Joshua being the youngest of the lot. Otherwise, Charr is the interim and Bakole the highest ranked in one of those bodies. Have fun enjoying that.

                      He should retire if he said he would If he loses, and he did lose.
                      But maybe he wants one more big name win, and some more paydays?We don't walk in his shoes
