    Arreola is riding a dangerous high off of this, when put into perspective, rather unimpressive victory. I think Arreola underestimates Wilder's power and comes in thinking repeat performance only to walk into a bomb of a right hand that drops him.
    It's funny because Mitchell is a live body compared to the people Wilder fought

      Hope so and not sure why everyone is so confident Wilder knocks him out, hes hugely unproven, shown virtually nothing & has a questionable chin.

      This is a legitimate test for Wilder.

      Does Wilder hit as hard as Stiverne? I wouldn't bank on it

        Well the 100 percent KO ratio is daunting... but seriously... of all the times to say this..... look who each of them fought.

          Mitchell is athletic yeah. That's pretty much it.

                Look at the tale of the tape and KO%.

                Wilder would've made even shorter work of Mitchell than Arreola did and I'd give him little credit for it too. Mitchell has no business being in a boxing ring.

                  Why you pointing to KO%?
                  How about you point to quality of opposition?
                  His losses have more luster than Wilder's resume

                    Sounds like a great fight, doubt it goes past 4 or 5 rounds. No matter the outcome though I don't think Wilder is ready for the Klits just yet.

                      I'm not giving him no credit for beating Mitchell?
                      Arreola has a very high K.O % himself and against competition light years ahead of Wilders.
                      Hell if Mitchell fought those scrubs Wilders been facing he'd of probably had the same record himself.

                      Everyone he has fought has stood right in front of him. Not one has even attempted to take that right hand away.

                      I just haven't seen anything from him thus far and could probably name 10-15 HWs who would do the same to that level of competition.
