Deontay Wilder is. . .

[bojangles1987]

From where I'm sitting Wilder hasn't improved at all since his debut. His punch technique is god awful and he doesn't have a jab. His footwork is mediocre and the jury is still out on his chin. I have no words to describe Wilders resume.

I'm just speculating but it feels like Wilder has bought into his own hype and maybe thinks he is the complete package now. I mean who wouldn't when you've knocked over 31 of your 31 opponents and you don't register that they were total and utter bums.

Below are some of the fighters I feel would school Wilder in no particular order:

Wlad
Haye
Fury
Chisora
Thompson
Povetkin
Jennings
Arreola
Stiverne
Pulev
Perez
Banks
Browne

From what I've see of Wilder, he would go life and death with the likes of Manuel Charr and Seth Mitchell at this current time.

I don't see Wilder ever improving enough to be a serious contender and his career is going to blow up as soon as he steps in the ring with a contender/fringe contender.

He would obliterate Seth Mitchell. That dude has the glassiest of all the chins.

Yea that's why I said 'life and death'. If Seth had some semblance of a chin. . .

[Derranged]

lacy was sheer trash, he had even worse skills than wilder and no talent whatsoever. dude just couldnt fight to save his life, completely useless. not comparable to wilder in any way.

Yea sure....

... Worse than Tye Fields.

... Worse than Tye Fields.

You go too far, sir. Be reasonable.

....Will never see a decision he's past that point where he's only going 10-12 rounders now, I really can't see a scenario where he doesn't KO or get KO'd.

He's not polished so he's vulnerable/unknown past the middle rounds but with his range/power seemingly ever increasing confidence he's dangerous for anyone not named Wlad as of right now.

Would you say Wilder has improved? And if so, how?

why wouldn't he be dangerous to wlad? a tall long fighter than can reach his glass chin before he's able to clinch. sounds dangerous to me. the thing is wlad doesn't actually have any defense aka parrying punches, head movement etc...his defense is holding but wilder is so long that it's gonna be difficult to get to him and hold. wlad might be able to take wilder out before wilder takes him out but that kind of strategy is surely dangerous

[DetroitFast]

Alot of people dont see him as a legit HW contender yet because...well he's just not proven himself against elite level HWs, BUT you have to admit he has true KO power and his athleticism/size makes him a threat to ANYONE in the HW ranks if you ask me.

I bet butter bean would knock out wilder with in 4 rounds
