Part of what potentially makes Deontay special is his athleticism. His ability to move for 12rds last night was one of the more impressive things I've seen from a guy that big in recent memory. His foot speed for a guy that big is freakish. Adding weight may hurt him in both areas.

Lets be honest. Vlad would have put Stiverne to sleep lastnite. I like Wilder but Vlad has too much experience. He also still has legsComment

I'll be honest right off the pit.
What excuses will this new American "champ" use to avoid the most dangerous and real CHAMP of the Heavyweight division?
People calling him legit when the consensus is the Heavyweight is loaded of 90% fat bastards and 9.9% pretenders and hype jobs while the true 0.1% the US media ignores.
Come back to me when that new chump boxer actually steps in the ring against the reigning undisputed Heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.Comment

I agree. Wlad still has the edge in power and the reach and accuracy to land on Wilder. It would do be a great fight to see and one that needs to happen sooner than later.Comment

So 90% of Wlads fights were against fat bastards too right? being as though he fights in the same HW division as everybody else right? and 9.9% hype jobs right% So by your math, Wlad has also yet to prove himself against legit competition. Maybe you are the one ignoring the .1% true dangerous threat that is Wilder, and putting too much stock into Grabimir Clinchko.I'll be honest right off the pit.

Well since Vitali isn't actually doing anything in the Ukraine. (You guys do know he's not running for any office or helping the cause right? We are all clear on this.) maybe it's safe to say that now that there is a legit America threat, Vitali thought it would safer to pretend to be political figure and give up the belt, rather than getting slaughtered for it.Comment

It amazes me he doesn't have a strength and conditioning coach in his camp. One problem with a bulking routine I wouldn't want to go fight a tough fight like a Fury fight or a Klitschko fight with the new body. He would need to take a fight with a no hoper veteran like a Briggs or somebody like that to see how his body feels carrying the extra weight.Comment
