    Lets all say something good about Deontay Wilder

    He is the American World Heavyweight Champ and dude is hitting his prime, so i want us all to say something good about him. I know he has a lot of detractors(Im one of them) but lets say something about him or his fighting style they like. I'll start:

    I love the way he throws his punches. As a common man i find he throws punches similar to the way I throw punches. Wild swinging haymakers with no technique. Its great to see when he throws punches because it makes you feel like you are back at your favorite watering hole drinking a beer and you see two dudes fighting flailing away throwing wild swinging punches at each other.

    Wilder is the common man champ.

    Who's next with their compliment of Wilder?

        My observation of him is that he is a very difficult opponent to gauge.
        He is very long and his "wide" punches are very difficult to defend
        with consistency. The fact that he is not a "text book" technical style adds to his awkwardness and being able to defend against. Watching him on TV is not what his opponents are seeing and if you can't understand that then you've never boxed!

        This kid has good head movement and he can counter punch however he is erratic and I believe vulnerable to a solid pressure offense.
        Just because a fighter isn't going by the book with form and style doesn't mean he can't be effective.
        I think this kid is a handful and I want to see him in there with
        Parker, Joshua then Fury. I think he has a shot against all of them.

          He's very good at windmilling and having chicken legs.

            Wilder is a good dude, being a true father to his daughter unlike 70% of black fathers.

              He only windmills when he finishes opponents, generally his punches are straight

                    He gets excited when he has his guy hurt. It's not technically sound, but it gets exciting and refreshing to see guy get so blood thirsty.
