Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Fres Oquendo
Wilder could be 60-0, doesn't make a difference until he fights someone with a pulse.
He is now a name fighter and could callout any top heavy, but will continue avoiding a real challenge.

Jefferson was a nice guy and decent fighter. Don't remember him having power like Wilder though.
I hope Wilder pans out. He's exciting n could revitalize the heavyweight division. He's still a long shot at this point but one Oquendo at a time he's getting closer.

Seriously though...Wilder hasn't done anything remotely in the same stratosphere as impressive as that against a "live" guy on a serious hot streak. Kos are a dime a dozen when you have literally never faced harsh adversity and had to go the distance or comeback. Wilders 23rd fight was in some truck stop casino where he spent 5 minutes whispering and hugging Owen Beck in the corner after he quit on the stool.

Damn that was a good KO by Jefferson.
Owen Beck is a former world title challenger! Least, I think he was against Valuev lol
