So does anyone think Wilder can beat Wlad?

I also think his power is seriously over rated too, his jab looked great but he was putting full force into those right hands and the one punch power simply wasn't there against a bona fide World Class fighter.

He took a few good shots but don't see him taking Wlads power

I don't think Stiverne was out of shape, he just has a soft body type and isn't use to having to throw so many punches. He went the full 12.

Bermane Stiverne's issue is his style is 100% counterpunching so if you dictate pace and distance he'll struggle. Ray Austin was outboxing him until he got caught. That said BWare IS a good heavyweight, he may not have fought a smart fight but he's a good fighter and I think he'd give troubles to a guy like Dereck Chisora, he'd be tough for Bryant Jennings, he'd be tough for Glazkov, he'd be tough for Andy Ruiz Jr.
