Wilder is good and manages to get KO's and wins against either over-matched, or slow, straight-up fighters who try to box him from the outside.
I am a Fury fan and spent the whole fight against Wilder screaming at him to go inside on this guy, pressure him, lean on him etc He did outbox him but got caught twice and gave Wilder the draw in his backyard, which was always going to happen. OK, it wasn't the best Fury and took him 4 rounds to shake the rust off, but Wilder got his two KD's which is fair.
Why do people who fight Wilder stay in the danger zone and never make sudden and explosive moves on him? pressure him inside? Fury didn't do it because he was not 100% and tried to beat him at his own game, got caught twice and gave Wilder the draw..... Ortiz, Spzilka .... they all end up the same - crumpled on the floor!
I might be laughed at in the comments to this particular comment, but I have never seen any one put it on Wilder and pressure him, take away his range and punch and drag him into a dogfight...... Chisora or Wallin or Povetkin style.... someone who comes forward and just tries to land bombs........
I need to see Wilder in against an opponent who will pressure him, stay on his chest and take away his distance.... put it on him, is fast, explosive..... it is the only way to beat him other than Fury outboxing him and dodging his punch for 12 rounds (which no one would put money on including myself).
Ortiz was absolute Dogshiat in there... do not be fooled by the scorecards which makes him out to have done well.... Wallin did better in losing rounds than Ortiz did winning them..... slow as treacle, both hands and feet.... no pressure at all..... just pitty-pat boxing and let Wilder box comfortable for 6 rounds until Wilder landed a nuke on his dome lol

Fury fought the right fight vs Wilder, why would he try to get inside on him when he is taller and has a longer reach. Wilder head hunts and he kept his head out of range most of the fight. If Wilder was smarter he would go to the body but hes over 30 and aint changing his style now.
Ruiz is really the only good fighter with the style OP is talking about. Yes it would make sense to not stay on the outside vs wilder at the tip of his right hand. Fury in fact did well because he is the only guy with a longer range who could counter while being outside wilder's range because he fights tall. Fighters may have planned on closing the distance with wilder but felt his power and backed down, the kind of power he has even if they are blocking and the right hand is partially landing they are feeling that power and its something like they never felt before, get scared in the moment.

I would bet my house on Ortiz beating the version of Povetkin that AJ knocked out with zero hesitation.
