Deontay Wilder "No Old School Fighter Could Beat Me, I'd Knock Out Prime Mike Tyson"

Nah, fuck that. We know it's untrue, because he has KO'd let alone even fought, NO ONE NEAR the caliber of those men. Given this fact, we know that Wilder isn't over-confident; he's just full of shit.

lol Wilder is as old school as it gets. He's just several inches taller than the boxers of the past.
Otherwise he's very very lean and light in weight just like them and swings very wildly just like the old timers(depending on how far you go back in time).Comment

Tyson resume is pretty ass man, just just be honest he lost to all the top level fighters he faced and lost badly at thatComment

Wilder has a puncher’s chance in any era. I’ll give him that. The guy hits damn hard, there’s no doubt. One good shot could spell lights out. And, like Ray Corso said earlier, his height and unorthodox movement make him a handful. That said, prime Tyson folds Deontay in half. Mike tends to be overrated by most casual fans, but at his peak, Tyson was basically the complete package. Solid defense, very hard to hit clean. Relentless and energetic aggression. Speed and concussive power in both hands. Highly skilled. And let’s not forget the intimidation factor. Grown-ass men, larger than himself, professional heavyweights, were scared to death stepping into the ring with that animal. My guess is, Deontay would be no different. The moment he saw the speed and aggression up-close, felt the that first shot, even if one just whizzed within a centimeter of his head, he’d fall in line. Wilder’s just talking shit. It’s ok. This is boxing. LolComment

I watched Tyson’s rise and fall as it unfolded. What you say is true, but Mike was like a comet. He was the youngest heavyweight champ ever, received attention like very few boxers ever have, and just couldn't handle it. His peak was actually very brief. Tyson was tearing through everyone so easily that everyone, including himself, truly believed he was invincible. The only men that heard the final bell against him only managed to because they literally held on for dear life. The overconfidence came early, and so did the slacking. Enter Buster Douglas, a **** conviction, and it was all over. By the time Holyfield showed up, it was no longer the same Tyson. And forget about Lennox. I believe peak Tyson would’ve beaten both.Comment

I saw Iron Mike from Steve Zouski all the way to
Kevin McBride, LOL . Although Wilder might hang around
For about 4 rounds by the half way point he goes night night. The problem with Wilder is he has zero head movement and it's always in one spot. Hook to the body & head and that's all she wroteComment
