... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
... After that one round farce of a fight last night against Scott, we still have NO IDEA of his long-term fighting ability, or his chin or his heart.
If it was a fix, which I feel that it was, we were robbed of knowing if Wilder is still a worthy guy worth fighting at the top level and getting title chances.
That fight showed us less of Wilder as did the fight with Sergei and all the others.
We saw "some" things with Firtha, and a little glimpse of what he was when he faced Kelvin Price, but that's it....
I would love to see a Mansour, Pulev, Chagaev, Fury, Chisora, Thompson, Haye and/or Ortiz/Perez/Solis fight for Wilder.
Please line up Solis, Thompson, Chagaev or Pulev. These are guys still hungry to win....
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
Arreola will test him. Arreola will beat Stiverne and will pressure him and make him work. He's not going to take a dive.
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
Is he not fighting the winner of Perez/Jennings? Thought I read somewhere that was the other eliminator.

Nope that was it last I heard. Unless they change minds after that farce. All he does now is sit in his highchair and wait..
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
Just watched it on youtube.
That is the most fixed looking stoppage I have ever seen!
The left hook was an arm punch and Wilders right glove didnt even touch Scotts head! It didnt even force Scotts gloves to bang in to his head!
What a fucking joke and how fucking embarrasing!
Watch! It was orchestrated.

Then wait.... and his next fight if either Perez or Jennings, odds are it's Jennings, WILL be the test of tests.
I'll go with Jennings.
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
Scott was being very friendly to his best friend. One day Wilder will step up the competition.

I don't see how that could be fixed. If it was fixed, it was the worst performance I ever saw.
One thing was clear to me, Scott was not eager to engage.
Too eager not to engage....

That's the trouble with the division I guess, there are just about no solid, tested guys who will guarantee rounds against anyone anymore. I don't think a single person you just listed is on a higher level than Malik Scott, whose to say Wilder doesn't blast them all out and invite the same criticism.
I feel Bryant Jennings, Arreola, Stiverne or Povetkin would be the best opponents for Wilder at this stage. The winner of Mansour/Cunningham or Fury/Chisora would also be great to see.
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
Chris Arreola I would bet heavily on to KO Deontay Wilder.
Natural fighter
Good skills,
Great stamina,
Hard chin,
Mentally tough,
Hefty
Fast
Tall
Big cracker punches (singly and in combination)
Wilder can't match that!
Arreola is a real fighter and boxer.
Wilder is a good prospect but one that will ultimately fail against this calibre of opponent.
Re: ... and yet still about Deontay Wilder:
We might just prefer mysteries in this division because we're not satisfied with most of what we see already. Is there a Santa Claus and how do planes disappear are mysteries worth the time ;D , with heavies fans want statements and answers.
