Lets have it real, Deontay Wilder is a glorified bum.

[New England]

Wilder is certainly not a bum. Still he has to be tested.

Here is a list of amazing fights that I would love to see Wilder in :

Wilder vs Mitchell

Wilder vs Charr

Wilder vs Thompson

Wilder vs Chisora

Wilder vs Pulev

Wilder vs Fury

Wilder vs Haye

If Wilder is able to beat Mitchell, Charr and Chisora, he would definitely deserve a title shot and would be consider as a serious guy. But for now, he's considered as a untested talent.

agree. i want to see him prepared properly for a chisora, mitchell level guy. he needs an iron chinned journeyman to take him rounds.


hell, i'd even liek to see him fight zack paige if that guy is still kicking. rounds.

the point i'm illustrating is that wilder is not a unique quantity. i know that's hard for you brits to believe, but it's the truth.

But we are talking about Wilder's career/boxing progression.

Why are overseas posters so obsessed with Wilder?

In America hes an afterthought. FFS let it go.

Hickey and Dirk post about him more than anybody else.

The brit's are more obsessed with Wilder than any American. I find it funny.

Wilder will be the next David Price. I just don't see much aside from a big right hand.

I hear the Brit's bringing up Fury, who's not bad.....but what would Fury be in the 70's or the 90's???

All this talk just illustrates how down the heavyweight division is.

Well David Price has big time stamina issues, that has been his downfall so far. Against Thompson the 2nd time he got so tired he wasn't able to punch anymore. The referee stopped Price while he was still on his feet.

If Wilder has the big time stamina issues David Price has he could possibly be "the next David Price", but not so far. I'm sure Deontay would have learned from Price's losses to Thompson too. From watching how the fights went.

Not quite, I've only seen the **** fight twice or something.

How dare we talk about a fighter who fought last night on a boxing forum we should be focussing on Matts vs Garcia, canelo vs mayweather and fury vs haye 24/7.

if he were "deontay buckland" from the shire, or wherever you limeys live, the brits would be ****ing the drums so f#cking loud.

And you yanks would be rightly calling us up on it...

Fury is undefeated with less fights and beaten way better people and most Brits don't even rate him.
