    Deontay makes him seem even older and slower than when Fury faced him.

    I see it play out, kinda like after 3 rounds, Deontay starts to get bored and shoots a lot more punches, Wladimir don't he keeps firing one shot at the time, falling so far behind on points. Completely demotivated by the fact that he is losing again, to someone who's the same size, making him doubt himself.

    Deontay Wilder possibly stops Klistchsko or wins a very wide decision even in Germany.

      I don't know, but i'm guessing the implication is Tyson Fury being the best?

        I noticed some slippage in the Jennings fight. Fury just confirmed that Wlad can't pull the trigger anymore.

          Tyson Fury is the best, but that has nothing to do with this topic.

          Personally i predict a brutal KO for Dr Steelhammer. Wilder doesn't possess the boxing skill to keep Wladimir at range and stop him unloading his big shots. He doesn't have the head movement or fainting skills to take Wladimir's jab away from him.

          Wladimir establishes the jab early, starts to bust up Wilder's face. Both his eyes end up closed, and eventually walks into a big left hook and gets knocked senseless.

          Don't get me wrong, i do feel that Wilder has a punchers chance, especially with Wladimir's dodgy chin, but that's about it.

            I would pick Wilder simply because Wlad doesn't know how to fight on the inside. It's actually disgraceful that Wlad has been boxing for how many ever years and he still had not developed an inside game. I believe Wilder has a longer reach too, so if Wlad wants to stay on the outside and throw his jabs and his overrated straight right he will get marked up too. Easy win for Wilder. Wlad was never elite.

              Wilder hits hard but not as hard as his record suggests, due to the very poor quality of opponents he has faced, and Wlad's chin is not as bad as some people think.

              Wilder would need to catch Wlad clean and flush to KO him, and I don't believe he has the boxing skill to be able to do that.

              I think Wlad would do his usual thing against Wilder, controlling distance with footwork, winning rounds and slowly breaking the opponent down with his jab and right cross.

              Wilder might settle for losing on points like Jennings, or he might go for broke at some stage, which would almost certainly lead to a KO win for Wlad.

                I'll have to see where Wlad is in the rematch verse Fury

                For now? Depends, but both can win

                  I think Wlad would knock him out. Wilder is not as good as Fury. He was in hard fights in his last two title defenses against unranked guys nobody ever heard of. Wilder is not hard to hit and he has been hurt by guys that don't have the power Wlad has in both hands. It could go either way but I pick Wlad to land the KO blow sometime before the final bell. Wilder might be ahead on points when Wlad KOs him. Wilder could also KO Wlad if he gets there first with a big punch.

                    Wlad by KO.

                    Styles make fights. Lumbering, old Wlad had difficulty against Fury. He would murder Wilder.
