Does Razor ~©SPARK©~ the Atomic Windmill?
Wilder would not face a big puncher, it is in his contract that he issues to his opponents. They are not allowed to hit him.
Smart management there then. Good moves by his team. Other boxers should be so smart. It may start a trend.Quote:

HE CANt do anything so different in the rematch AND he's 6 mos older.
Had Ruddock owned a right hand instead of thinking he was good enough to name his singular punch, it may have worked out for him. That said Wilder shits himself and runs back to the car before actually knocking on Ruddocks door for a date ;D .
Hahaha. I pictured it and burst into a laugh. Wilder shitting down his leg. Ruddock with the cold stare. "BOMB SQUAD!!!". BWAHAHAAAAA. @Quote:

Deintay should've busied himself knocking out Briggs, Areola, Povetkin, Heleniis, Joshua, Haye, etc....
What an inactive piece of SHITTTTTTT
Wasn't Stiverne a good puncher? Wilder beat him fairly easy.
Not the Smash good, Stiverne has fast hands but not necessary a lot of power.Quote:

Ruddock is totally overrated , he lost every big fight he was involved in and his best wins are over Phil Jackson and the fossil Boneclutcher Smith.
Lost to Tyson twice / Lewis / Morrison he was totally overrated.
Yeah Wilder would beat Ruddock
probably knock him out fairly early
You are forgetting Razor nearly decapitating Dokes as one his best wins.Quote:

Dokes was shot by then , he didn't recover from drugs and the Holyfield war.
Ruddock never beat a top fighter in his prime.
Dokes was get a load of kudos after the Holyfield fight, he was very highly rated.Quote:

Bonecrusher was only a couple years on from a career high, and would still have another decade in the sport post Razor. That was another very good Ruddock win. And as you mentioned he also beat the then highly rated prospect Phil Jackson too boot.
From late 89 to Lewis three years later, Ruddock would be a very warm favourite to 'smash' Wilder.
He would have also served himself better if he hadn't kept them in his pockets and actually stepped to the side the entire fight. Molina and Szpilka were lesser punchers and clearly bothered Wilder more.Quote:

Ruddock could probably take a Wilder punch and survive. Could Wilder take one of Ruddock's?
It's anybody's guess.

Ruddock started out as a decent boxer & I'd pick this earlier version to beat Wilder, but he later became a one armed, one dimensional slugger who was drunk on his power & frankly, he was next to useless.
Wilder lives right up to his name normally by being crude & wild, but he did show against Stiverne that he can box a bit.
I'm inclined to pick Wilder, but I don't say that with full confidence.
