Comments Thread For: Breazeale: Negron is a Stepping Stone To Deontay Wilder Shot

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

"I think fighting a guy like Carlos Negron is a stepping stone to getting the fight with Deontay WIlder. He has similar size and stature, so it's like a rough sketch for the title fight. I want to stay in rhythm and dust off any cobwebs there may be so I'm active and ready when the Wilder fight comes.

"Carlos Negron is a big guy and someone that size is going to have a good jab. I know he has a strong amateur pedigree. We have similar records and we stand eye-to-eye. This is the first time I've fought someone his stature and size. But I don't think he's fought the same quality of opponents like I have at the pro ranks.

"This is the heavyweight game and one punch can change everything. I plan on landing that punch on Saturday night.

"This is a guy who stands tall and has boxing skills. He's an 'ABC' fighter. He throws a lot of 1-2s and that's what Deontay Wilder does too. I'm only chasing the belt because Deontay Wilder is running."

I used to be mildly interested in a fight with Wilder.

Now, I am not interested in his fights at all, really. I see him as 'B' level and Wilder has way more interesting fights all next year.

This guy doesnt deserve another title shot. He needs to beat some top 10 contenders.

Breazeale needs to tighten up that defense... before facing Wilder. I love the behind the scenes beef with Wilder and breazeale, that always makes for a interesting grudged match... now, with that said, breazeale, u need to stay active and keep calling Wilder out.. but the chinese have a saying "Beware what you wish for!"

Well, not really, you fought Joshua who’s the same height... and what happened there?

[Andre_parker1]

Joshua was the same size and he whooped him from pillar to post

[Dramacyde]

Wilder would turn this guy into Adonis Stevenson

Wilder is 210 pounds naturally....he's Not the same size!

Wilders not the same ability , skill level and the only thing remotely similar is power to Joshua. Wilder is not Joshua and looking at the Molina fights each had gives you how vastly different they really are if we're comparing same opponents !

“This is the first time I've fought someone his stature and size” I was referring to breazeale's statement here,perhaps if you had read the article then you would have understood

Well if that's the case it makes your post even less plausible because YOU'RE insinuating Negron is another Joshua who will do the same because he's the same size ?
