Does Wilder have a good chin?

[QueensburyRules]

Or not been tested much because fear of his right hand. In his title fights outside of Ortiz 1 in the 7th round I don't he has been hurt or buzzed. He rarely takes good shots or gets hit clean.

Will anybody ever force him into a Holyfield Bowe type fight? Or does his reach and right always protect him from a war?

- -Sloppy defense has cost him more brain cells than $ made.

Already been dropped 2x by low level journeymen.

Ripe for a breakdown!

So who are/were the best HW chins in your opinion?

Currently Kownacki, Parker and Ruiz.

[leeroy84]

Ortiz, Fury, Brezeale, Ortiz, Fury.

How’s he being protected???

Old man, ex fat coke head, who? and even older man....

This Fury fight, Wilder is finally facing a tricky opponent, and yet it all depends on which Fury turns up.

VERY protected.

Wilder isn't even the best heavyweight at the PBC.... the blob that KO'd the robot bodybuilder would eat Wilder with no training camp.... and i dont mean literally.

I think he is a skinnier guy, usually lighter than other bigger dudes, so I think he can be hurt (obviously as he's been buckled a couple times and down against Sconiers).

But he keeps himself in great shape, don't hear of him abusing his body and such, great fighting spirit that he can hardly hold back ...my feeling is that it's not a great chin, but still well preserved. It hasn't been cracked yet ...and the fact that he takes care of himself means that going to take extra to really get him out. ..the extra should be body punching against his skinnier body


I think he felt Fury's body shots in that first fight, he slowed considerably from a couple of those, I think if Fury wants to really try for a KO, more body punching and better leverage overall, more grinding might get him further to that goal.

To say he doesn’t have a great chin at this point is just lying to yourself.

To say he has a great chin at this point is just lying to yourself.

If he gets by "Pillow fist" (the same "Pillow Fist" who destroyed the guy that King Kong "Boogeyman" couldn't) a second time, then he needs to face some real competition.

Any of the WBC top 10 will do (Apart from Ortiz III - PMSL really??? ****ing 4th??? for what??? lmfao)

EDIT - Hell, take Ortiz out of the current WBC top 15 rankings and each and everyone of those chaps has a shout at being Wilders best win!... just ****ing wow, and this is the champ???

So you’re saying in a matter of 7-8 seconds fury’s legs would have went from being totally gone to not even slightest stagger?

I don't see why that's difficult for you to believe...have you been in the ring? Been staggered?

[SN!PER]

Deontay's victories are driving people crazy. He defies everything that they thought they knew about the sport of boxing. They just can't believe that this wild swinging, skinny black man from Alabama is the #1 heavyweight in the world.

[Marchegiano]

I reckon it's okay. Wlad survived some big punchers too but I wouldn't call him a solid chinned guy.

I reckon he's got a damn great chin for the present era. Who can punch? If Joshua fights him and hit him clean and often and can't KO him then who the **** else is there?

I don't see why that's difficult for you to believe...have you been in the ring? Been staggered?

yes and yes. if someone is completely short circuited, it generally takes a bit longer for their legs to come back...especially after 12 full rounds when the body is tired. i don't think fury's legs were ever gone in that instance. i think he got in an awkward position reacting to the right hand and was hit with the left hook when he was off balance. they were solid shots, but i don't buy that fury was "knocked out".
