Wilder sends him to the shadow realm and he won’t return! the brits is right....there’s only one Tyson Fury and Wilder’s right hand is the deadliest single weapon in boxing!
Any capable boxer could defeat Wilder if they remain focused for every round but Hunter is not favored here on paper ,he gets sloppy in spots . I’ve always said the thing with Wilder on paper anyone can just say he will land and win at some point even though that’s not how boxing works ,but I’d take Wilder unless he really looks terrible against Fury which is very poss even though it’s a different kind of fight .
Hunter fought Bakole who is far bigger then Wilder and can also punch not sure why you guys think he’s some defenseless small guy who never fought bigger fighters ?
Until Wilder proves himself against top guys, I will roll with the better boxer.
If Hunter can hang with Povetkin (Gold Medal winner) I give him a good shot to out box Wilder.
Wilder's career was smoke and mirrors, so until I see him beat legit fighters, I will bet against him.
Wilder's boxing skills are questionable at best, so he will struggle unless carefully matched against fighters on the PBC payroll (Ortiz, Arreola, Washington or Breazelle).
I think it's a close fight. I'd root for Hunter but it's hard to favor him right now. Its interesting to me because I think if you put Wilder in the ring with any other fighter before the trilogy, Wilder comes out to make a statement. Dangerous fight on both sides no matter who it is.
Hunter would look slick and be schooling Wilder 8 rounds to 0, then Wilder will randomly land a right hand, his first landed punch of the night, Hunter will collapse face first on the canvas, out cold, the referee will count to 10, they will bring oxygen and a stretcher and Wilder will do some funny dance and yell "bomb squad"
I pick Wilder by KO. I don't think Hunter is very good and I don't think he will ever win a world title belt. Wilder would win on points if it went the distance but it wouldn't. I think Ortiz would beat him and so would Ruiz and Parker..Hunter is about a number 10 or 15 contender but nothing special. He is not that fast or a big puncher or a great boxer. Just a pretty good fighter.
Wilder would win but it wouldn’t be easy hell Hunter was even able to confuse Uysk before he caught on and almost closed the show.
I wonder how would a Hunter vs Ortiz fight go. I could see Hunter win because of his elite stamina but he’d probably get hurt in that fight like he did the Povetkin fight.
Hunter is more than capable of outboxing Wilder, but if the naturally bigger Wilder lands his atomic bomb of a right hand, I don't see Hunter getting up.
