good its time to start getting some work in, lets get througha few more tomato cans and lets start picking up better opposition

He has 21 fights & isn't fighting 10 rounders yet.... He is developing too slowly

This guy is the biggest hype job in boxing.

Price, Chisora, Fury & Helenius all face tougher opposition at half the fights Wilder has had.

Talk about a padded record.

David Haye unified a division in 21 fights, Wilder is still at the same stage most boxers are at in there first 5 fight.

As soon as he steps in with anyone decent he will get found out.


Can't remember Paul Williams just getting fed on cans.

I wouldn't be surprise if they try and go for Marciano's record.

Price, Fury, Helenius, Chisora and Solis all fewer fights than Wilder and all would beat him.

Wilder isn't a "hype job" because no one's really hyping him...

He sure gets a lot of coverage for someone that has not fought anyone of any note an would be lucky to be considered a top 50 heavyweight boxer.

Probably because he's an Olympic medalist.

However, he only had a total of like 14 amateur fights or something like that (Olympics included) and started boxing like a year and a half or something before the Olympics.

They've moved him too slow for my taste, but he doesn't really compare with the guys who had long amateur careers.

Another Audley Harrison then.
