It's unlikely anyone can beat him now. He is old and maybe old age and a real good challenger will someday beat him before he retires. His chin is his weak link but he is smart and skillful and has learned how to protect his chin. He is a great puncher with both hands and has one of the best jabs in boxing. That's a hard combination to beat.
Is there any heavyweight who can relly beat Wladimir?

No probably not, to beat him you need to be an aggressive guy with long hands like Wilder you isnt afraid to throw punches, Wlads biggest fear i think is someone who doesnt respect an opponent and comes in smoking.
I think Wilder could KO him if he caught him on his chin a few times and managed to avoid wlads clinch and didnt hesititate, but wilder is unproven yet so i dont knowComment

Lots of guys in the heavyweight division can punch so it's not about that, the real issue is, no one is smart enough, or skilled, to land effectively and beat wlad. Also what's coming back is a bazooka so it's hard to generate any sort of effective gameplan.Comment

Seems like most today cannot punch hard. Wilder and Stiverne can but they are WBC fighters. Povetkin has some power though.Comment

He has gotten by everybody for a long time. I think it just depends on when father time catches up to him. Fury would stand a chance and I will not say about Wilder until after Saturday, but other than those guys, I see no one coming close. He has found his rhythm and has been untouchable the last decade(barring the first Samuel Peter fight).
At this point, he is hall of fame bound and will go down as one of the best, most accomplished. I would love to see him break a few records before that happens though, which he is close to doing.Comment
