Wilders performance good or bad?

[deathofaclown]

The man lost 6 rounds in a row to Ortiz and was set to lose the 7th too. Thats got to be seen as bad. That is a schooling, that is seriously losing the fight. If he has an off night, pulls a muscle in his arm, hurts his shoulder or hand or just cant seem to land a clean one he is up sheet creek without a paddle.

BUT.

Wilder didnt even try to win any rounds, just stalked and stalked with that sledgehammer ****ed and ready to go and even 6 rounds down out of 6 he remained calm and ****. Another opponent down looking like hes just been hit by a train.

So how do you look at it? I certainly look at is a a very risky game plan. But i think we are all in agreement Wilder is not a technically sound Boxer so its tough to win rounds when your getting out boxed so why not play to your advantages which in Wilders case is fast and sickening right hands.

Do we have to say it was bad and good at the same time?

Good and bad, you’re right.

I’d have to lean on the good side though. The truth is Wilder can’t outbox guys like Ortiz or Fury, so why even try to box with them and leave yourself open more? - Wilder doesn’t need to do that because of his equalising power. His style v Ortiz actually keeps him out of danger for the most part.

So i’d say it was a smart performance, he played to his strengths, as limited as they might be.

It’s risky of course, it would be a very risky gameplan against a fully fit Fury that can move for 12 rounds. It’s easier to get away with it against Ortiz who slows after 5 rounds. But really, that’s why Wilder v Fury is an intriguing fight isn’t it?

It certainly not good for his fight with Fury, I hope he atleast tries to win the fight with Fury without just relying on one punch. To be fair on Wilder Fury could have lost that last fight with Braun Strowman, he got lucky.

Extremely poor , Fury will get the win and the Wilder fight showed his chances don't look good at all even if you thought he would win before. Southpaw Fury would win easy.
