Wilder 7/4 on at bet365, not a fight I'd wish to bet on, interesting.....

I'm going with Wilder. But would not be surprised if he gets laid out

Not a confident pick but Stiverne seems the more proven commodity.

50-50 as this poll suggests, tough to call cuz either man can KO the other at anytime

Logic suggests Stiverne has better technique & he should spark wilder but I'm taking a gamble & think if wilder can use his height and reach and stay composed he should be able to take advantage of Stivernes lazy style by keeping it long. Wilder ko

Who knows though

I hadn't really had an opinion on the outcome of this fight but just watched an interview with Wilders trainer/manager and he pointed some things out I hadn't considered. Like does Malik Scott beat Arreola? Theres a good chance he does and thats Stivernes best win. Liakovich just made Ruiz look like shit.

I think Stiverne may get a shock at how often he gets caught here and see him getting hurt and stopped early.

Am right there with you, sir. I'm thinking the guy who gets there first, wins.
Fight nite is going to be very disappointing for half of us.

Should we send out condolences to all those loyal but misguided Stiverne fans early? lol
I'm hoping Wilder takes care of business fast.

Sitting on the fence, VD?

What a fucking loser!

Wilder but a tough fight. Both of these guys think it's a must win. Either way, I don't think the two of them together can take Wlad.

Wilder has gotta do this. It's now or never.

"1-2-3, knockout by Stiverne"

Hey Wilder is the antithesis of Muhammad Ali!

Gotta go with Stiverne, Wilder looked too emotional at the weigh in, looked the combination of angry, scared and upset.

Stiverne is a good counter puncher. We will see if Wilder can take a punch.

This isn't a Tyson/Berbick moment. Nor an Ali/Liston moment.

What really bothers me about Stiverne, he's not busy enough. He has to work Wilder hard with head and body shots. He can't give Wilder a chance to get set. If he stands back looking for a opening he may get caught and early. So work rate is the key. As I said before sometimes Stiverne is lazy. He better not be for this fight. He can make it easy or hard for himself.
