he's been boxing for about 10 years now. most of the top fighters on the planet have been boxing since they were kids. wilder started when he was 20, and damn near a grown man.
i actually think he's a coordinated athlete. certainly more coordinated than tony thompson, or even arreola. being a coordinated athlete and knowning how to manage and coordinate a 6'7" body in a boxing match are different things. it takes men fo that size, a long, ,long time to learn to box, and it's because they have to do so much more "coordinating" than a 5'7" jr welterweight with a foot and a half less reach.
i don't tink a lot of you guys are used to watching HW, frankly. power, jabs, chins, and size rule the division, not head movement, activity, and foot movement, the way you see in smaller weight classes.
