Could Eddie Futch or Emanuel Stewart make Wilder more technically sound?

    There's a saying that if you spend your time working on your weaknesses then the best you can hope for is to become average. Whereas working on your strengths can make you exceptional.

    I'm not sure there's ever been a better example of that than Wilder.

    Could you create a better version of Wilder? He's pretty close to perfect for what he is. Fights the way he can win.

    But I still think an exceptional puncher loses to a very good boxer/puncher 8 times out of 10.

      Anyone who knows boxing would know a guy like steward would fix many things on wilder he was a master at reforming guys like Wlad and Lewis . You cant be serious if you are saying Steward couldn't fix Wilders mistakes wheather its one or multiple ones.

      from the corner? absolutely not. again, cornerwork guides a fighter from round to round. it doesn't teach him how to throw a left hook without winging it from left field, or telegraph his right hand.

      read my other posts, the idea that he could improve over several fights with a better trainer than mark breland is covered.

      cornerwork is just overrated and given too much attention. it's a storyline that developed when microphones and later HD cameras were able to give you a glimpse into the drama and the interaction that takes place in between rounds. yes, it matters, but it's not going to take the wildest HW champion we have ever seen and turn him into lennox lewis.

      the key point of being successful? yeah right! only time that is the case is when a fighter is horribly cut. good cornerwork can save a fight then. and that's the cutman! that is the only time anybody coming out of the corner is the most important man in the ring!
