Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder Fears His Power Might Kill Someone in The Ring

[Sid-Knee]

I find it strange that Wilder would fear for the lives of opponents when he's happy to fight hand-picked bums and low level fighters who don't have much in the way of competing against him, but runs from any threat in the division who can compete.

Very strange.

Oh no, wait, he's just talking **** as per-usual. Nothing to see here.

Up the comp and see how fast that fear goes away.

Don't lie, you know his fear would increase. But not due to hurting people with his punching power.

So, you admit that those titanium steel rods used to repair your right hand may be giving you an unfair advantage, eh?

[NahMean]

Well he should fight someone with a pulse then. He’s sooooo worried but all he does is fight cab drivers.

Maybe I'll eat these words when Deontay fights a top tier opponent, but I think he has a sturdier chin than what you guys give him credit for. I think he can box in the moments he actually needs to, and I also think he can display a somewhat competent defense when he needs to as well.

I look back at his fight against Stiverne, where he pumped his jab continuously and still had Stiverne on ***** street multiple times in that fight. That was Wilders highest caliber opponent, and he utterly destroyed Stiverne in the process. Wasn't a KO, but it was still satisfying to watch.

I think in some weird way he understands the caliber of opposition he's currently fighting. I don't doubt Wilder would fight Wlad, Joshua or Fury, and honestly the only one out of those 3 that I have reservations on is Joshua atm.

I wouldnt wirry about it if I Were deontay. I've watched him connect on guys with clean shots over 9 rounds before he got the stop. Real power, concussive power will stop you when it lands. It wont take 9 rds.

[SN!PER]

Floyd, please keep teaching Joshua defense.

We don't want to see him too badly hurt.

Wilders power would kill someone like bellew

[Earl-Hickey]

I've seen guys take repeated powers shots flush off deontay with no real bad effects

his ko of szpilka was pretty brutal but he's got a glass chin

wilders power is good but not all its made out to be

I'm sure your opponents will be safe deontay. They can always quit if the heat gets too hot in kitchen if ref don't save them from your lethal weapons of destruction.
