As for his style yes he is a brawler. He is not refined as a boxer, but I don't think Povetkin nor Joshua could make him pay for that either. Everyone said Stiverne would finally expose him as well and yet he still won. Povetkin needed drugs to stay in the game like Fury. Klitschko is scared to throw a punch anymore against anyone. Like you said his fight with Fury was the worst fight I've ever seen and that's the truth. I think Klitschko landed like 52 punches for the WHOLE fight and I'm not exaggerating either. Boxing refs need a red and yellow card like the refs did in PRIDE Fighting in Japan. You got the red and you lost 10% of your purse to PRIDE.

Wilder has showed he has a chin and he has shown he is not going anywhere any time soon. He definitely has shown he has the power to put most HW's to sleep.


i believe you. his outspokenness is part of his job,to sell the fights. he seems to be a dedicated family man,so i don't doubt that he's good peeps. have you spoke with his family about what they think of his career,and rise to become HW champ? do you live in the same city as like,he does? it's true he's moar of a brawler. particulary when he sees an opening,or senses his opponent is hurt,he fricking flails his fist like a madman,but his strength is his number one leverage.he has the advantage of his height,and being 1 of the hardest hitting HW's,in terms of KO power.he could be getting his a** kicked,but at any time in the fight if he lands,he could turn the fight around and win by KO.like,did you see his last performance against gerald washington? he was doing prety bad job boxing,but once he landed cleanly the fight was over. same with the arthur spilka fight. he did well against Stiverne,that's his only win that wasn't by KO. i'd like to see Wilder fight other top competitors.you're right,povetkin used Roids and i cant fault Wilder for declining to fight him. who would you like to see Wilder up against? how do you think Wilder vs AJ would go? i fully expect AJ to win on saturday. Klitschko barely landed any punches against Fury. 52 in an entire fight is like less than 5 punches thrown per round.prety sad. it's obvious Klitschko wants to go out with one big payday,and it's a passing of the torch to the new HW king.whats your prediction for the fight?
