    i doubt it. he is not very charismatic and has a boring personality and nothing charming about him. also his KO percentage is extremely overrated considering all those KOs were against either shot/past prime fighters and journeymen. he finally stepped up against stiverne and his power looked mediocre.

    i think he loses to povetkin, fury, joshua, etc. and wlad complete ends him.

        If he wins he can be a superstar. He has an engaging personality. He is downright funny and could do some sort of comedy work. That said he needs to win to crossover to the mainstream. Boxing is too underground for a nearly man to become a superstar.

          We has to deliver in the ring. If he continues to knock people out and he can knock out some top Heavyweights...it doesn't matter what anybody thinks on this forum, HE WILL BE A SUPERSTAR! But again he still has a long way to go, he has to beat Molina impressively tonight of course, after that, take on Povetkin. He beats Povetkin impressively I think that will not only shut a lot of people up but they will have no choice but to including myself who still have a lot of doubts and questions and need to be answered by him. I do think he has a great trainer in Mark Breland who is teaching him some things like that Jab which was outstanding vs Stevernie.

          Beating Povetkin and/or the winner of Klitschko vs Fury will make him a Superstar. He is a little goofy though, don't like the silly Dancing I see him doing but all that won't matter if he continues to knock people out

            I'm not a fan of Wilder

            But I'm a fan of boxing and would like to see him bring the attention of the American audience back to the HW division

              Irrespective of the quality of foes, Wilder will/is almost close to being a superstar...provided he fights on Sho. I don't believe fans are gonna buy PPV for Wilder V tomato cans.

              Wilder V Klitschko/Fury etc can sell on PPV though.

                Let's see an attractive, beast looking American HW that KTFO s everyone. No chance at all of being a star.

                If he becomes the champ he will be the biggest thing in boxing and top 3 sports star worldwide. No doubt about it..

                  No question about it.

                  If he beat Povetkin believe me, a Wlad or Fury fight would do huge numbers.
                  Tyson was spectacular and produced some of the most amazing KO's ever. Wilder doesnt have that same superstar quality. There are KO's and there are KO's.

                    he doesnt have the skills or the personality, dude is annoying as ****. he will be a fairly big name though, win lose or draw he will always be in exciting fights with memorable KOs. people are dying for that in the HW division.

                      I agree but an American heavyweight beating someone good, the country will go crazy over him.

                      Most people even casuals know Klitschko is top of the heap. When they are not, it's a new game.

                      I am not saying he will do it, but if he did, it would be HUGE.
