    Though unlikely, I'd like to see The Bronze Bomber get his mojo back.

      Wilder has always been the same. Just Szpilka , Duhaupas and Breazeale were not as good as Zhang, Parker, Fury.

      Chisora will the most likely be another man Wilder will lose to.

        “That one goal I set in the division – to unify the division – and I never had an opportunity to do so...."
        You had the potential opportunity, but you lost to Fury. And your comeback fights since then have not put you on the road to unify. It's too late now, Deontay.

            I do not believe for a second that Wilder will ever sniff a title again without the greasing of palms, but nothing would please me more than to see someone who is (rightfully) written off completely flip the script (legitimately, no ABC politics involved).

              lets be honest if wilder wins he probably gets the usyk fight. usyk was just trying to fight him before he decided to fight a kickboxer and people will say "wilders back" etc...etc...

                Stylistically, yes- athletically no.

                Unless Wilder is some Dorian Gray-esque character, then he will have aged and grown worse athletically. Since, as you've already pointed out, that he is the same type of fighter as he was before hand, combined with his diminished athletic prowess; then he logically has to be worse than he once was. (note how it was cited that he didn't improve stylistically so any argument citing a Hopkins type would just be a straw man)

                I get that some people don't like to acknowledge this, so they can look at his recent losses and use it to justify an opinion that he always was that bad. But that just doesnt hold water logically.

                  Only blood sucking Shelly Finkel would ride wilder until the wheels come off in order to make a buck. Wilder is done.? He’s been done!

                    Wilder like AJ are looking to have their last supper from a straw. When are Shelly and Eddie going to say enough and show some compassion? Fighters don’t know better. They need someone who’s not afraid to tell them the truth.
