Hunter is the last hope of American heavyweights

[BangEM]

1-Wilder only lost 1 fight

2-There are million of boxers waiting around in gyms now

how small minded are people?

The millions have been in gyms for over 20 yrs now and there's none that's great.

Your best is a bum that cherrypicked his way to the top.

Who was the last great American HW? Bowe? He had one great performance. Tyson? That was 30+ years ago. All the other recent American HWs either cherrypicked their way into a title, like Wilder, or were exposed when they stepped up in competition, like Mitchell or Kownacki.

Oh goodness I remember the Seth Mitchell hype train.

I'd take Wilder to KO Hunter in one round. I still think Wilder beats anyone except Fury.

[Citizen Koba]

I'm a fan of Hunter, he's gritty. Wilder could get stopped again and he'd still have the power to take Michael Hunter's head off.

Good dude Hunter as well if I'm any judge, comes over well in interview and seems to have a great attitude, got a lot of time for him, but he's not big enough and not skilled enough to compensate for his lack of size. He's a legit handful for anyone outside of the top 3 though, be great to see him in with Hrgovic I reckon and I'm sure he could hang fine with Whyte or Parker... hell the Usyk rematch would work for me too.

Lmao phuck no he's not anyone's last hope. I like Hunter, but he's **** average. There'll be more after Wilder, who knows when, but Hunter ain't it.

I’m gonna laugh my @ss off if Wilder beats Fury.

And Ruiz was born in Cali and grew up here. Don’t know why he’s listed as from Mexico?

He just drew with Povetkin so I'm guessing you'ee right he's at least Whyte or Parker level. That's not bad those are all top ten guys.

Yeah, the Rid**** Bowe who was 104-18 in the Ams with an Olympic Silver Medal and 3x Golden Gloves, and who was 7-1 against Current or Former World Heavyweight Champions.


one great performance.

America probably still has the largest talent pool in heavyweight boxing 'They will always produce half decent heavyweight fighters'.

Andy Ruiz Junior on his night would beat 95% of the heavyweights in the game 'Too bad his work ethic is terrible'.

Last hope for what ? Boxing has a steady top group , the best U.S heavyweights are yet to come and they come with a punch . Conto is the better fighter with more potential who can hit hard which is crucial having the abilities to put a hurting on someone in a moments time vs giants today .

Hunter is sloppy at times and doesn’t hit with direct power, but he caught Povetkin cold so you never know ? Conto by a fairly large margin has a higher ceiling then any current U.S heavyweight I can remember .
