    Idiots on here talking about Wilder getting hurt as a young prospect with a pic of it for his avatar his words mean nothing.And even Haye's trainer who has really seen him in sparring says he has good chin.Taken shots from Ortiz and not going down the guy has a good chin.Is it a Ray Mercer chin ?No but to talk about his chin when the matchup involved Bruno?????His chin was made of glass(he did have heart).Boy just as ****** as ever.Nobody that has fought him or sparred him or any trainer who has seen him has said he has a bad chin but the idiot of him fighting as a novice(he only had 25Am fights)and getting knocked down somhow thinks he has a bad chin.Still here spouting your idiot opinions.

      there's nothing wrong with wilders chin. people say you're only as good as you're last fight, but will pull up some footage from 10 years ago to prove their point.

        Who ever made money betting on Bruno? I called Tyson by KO in three in the rematch which deserves no credit. Even at this point Bruno is a footnote compared to Wilder.

          Yea over and over and over.Mercer had an all time chin and he got dropped by pre steroid Holyfield who was a not a big puncher at heavy.But he ate up Lewis and Morrison, Cooper shots like their were nothing you can always nit pick.A young Ali got dropped HARD by little Henry Cooper but took Foreman,Shavers,Frazier ect.

            Bruno outboxes him, comfortably.

              There's a difference from having a bad chin and one that can take the punchers of one of the hardest hitters at HW. Bruno was a massive puncher, Wilder would get stopped. He hasn't got an Oliver McCall chin.

                Strange fight, both have each others weaknesses. Bruno lacked stamina and Wilder cant defend jabs. I have to give a very slight edge to Bruno rewatching the Lewis fight. I don't think wilder defeats him on that night. Bruno liked that triple jab in the face and he would eventually land a right hand and Wilder doesn't react to punches well. The only time I ever seen Bruno dominated was against Mike Tyson who's 5 levels over Wilder as a fighter. Lewis also landed some mean shots on Bruno and he kept coming and was winning .

                Lewis was a very calculated finisher ,that's how he put Bruno away and it was actually an upper cut with a overhand right a very tactical finish ,if he could out box Lewis he'll outbox wilder which means its going to late rounds either way. . I also like the wilder fans insulting AJ as Frank Bruno 2.0 ,Wilder cant even get the majority nod against just Frank Bruno. Ha

                  Frankie was a decent by the numbers fighter and this is a fight that could genuinely go either way - have to assume Bruno gonna be winning the boxing match, and his jab would give Wilder plenty of issues, but ultimately I think Wilder's lack of orthodox technique would be difficult for Frank... I'm guessing that at some point - probably later on as Frank starts to slow down - Wilder's gonna land something big.

                  I can't recall seeing Frank coming back from being badly hurt to win a fight, but I think he'd have to here.

                      I'm genuinely disgusted with how biased some of you so called boxing fans are. Bruno would be the #1 HW in this era. Wilder in the 90s wouldn't even be a top 10.
