    Me theory about Deontay Wilder correct?

    I keep hearing how this beanpole is going to tear up the H/W division but I am far from convinced and I really do see nothing.
    I'm not even sure of his power - This is the only thing people can be rating him off, surely.
    I mean 21-0 21 K.O's is super until you look at the level of opposition. He is yet to face a damn journeyman that isn't prone to being stopped. You put just about any half decent, hard hitting HW with guys of that calibre & they'd do exactly the same.

    He is THE official second coming of Tye Fields. I fail to see absolutely anything apart from some guy who was too skinny to make it as an NBA player with a B- right cross.

    Look how top half heavy he is. He's a joke with a chin made of Weetabix, far better prospects out there. He wouldn't hear the bell for round 2 against David Price.

    Watching him box & having him talked about in a positive manner is the equivalent of what they call a circus fight in Japan.

    Give it two years & maybe, just maybe ready for to step up in competition against a guy like Owen Beck. Mind you that is still way too much of a risk.

    I see what they mean about HW boxing is dead now.

    From Tyson, Bowe, Lennox, etc coming up as prospects to the likes of Deontay Wilder.

    America are so desperate for a good big black H/W it's a fcukin joke.

      And I agree David Price puts him to sleep similar to the way Lewis put Ruddock to sleep.

          He needs to step it up. But he's won a bronze at the olympics.

            He potential... but hasn't been tested yet... and it's been 21 fights and he still hasn't upped his competition. I mean he did a little, but the dude was 41 years old and had a long lay off

              What though can you learn from continually fighting these bums that offer very little resistance?

              Audrey ''A-Farce'' Harrison won a gold medal at the olympics, this is the pro game where olympic medals & amateur achievements mean an extra nothing.

                I think he's learning nothing... just padding the record and gaining a lot of confidence.... also practice in live fights.... still against cans.

                  Wilder has great potential, he just hasn't stepped for some damn reason. I mean, he's with Golden Boy. I think Wilder will end up being better than Seth Mitchell, I just think Deontay's ceiling is higher than Seth's is. Seth looks like a football player trying to be a boxer. I see them throwing Mitchell in with Wlad at some point next year, 3-4 fights from now, and he'll get KO'd or lose a wide UD.

                  The HW's I like need to step up. Deontay Wilder, Malik Scott, Mike Perez, and I like David Price as well. I think Price can be very legit. After these next Olympics, when Anthony Joshua turns pro, watch out for him. Every British trainer is saying he's the truth, could go as far as Lennox Lewis did for them. I know that's a stretch for an amateur, but he looks legit from what can be seen of him on YouTube. He has loads of potential.

                    Anthony Joshua, IMO, can go incredibly far. His chin worries me though. He looks like a Brick ****house but can he take a big shot?

                    Either way, I'm sold on him already. He's in shape, he's young and he reps Britain.

                    Can't wait till he turns Pro.

                    EDIT - I've heard his chin is sound but I've seen him wobbled.
