    I think he is appalling. He is knocking everyone out because he is fighting rubbish opponents. If you fight Kid Thunder 25 times, you are likely to be unbeaten after 25 fights.

    His power is very good, even though he's fighting below par fighters.

    The exciting thing is that some of the time when you fight below par fighters you come across a tough journeyman that's hard to stop, (Glen Johnson's role now) so in his 26(26) wins, someone must have had a chin.

    It means that although he may not have the defences of a Wladimir K or the thought process/tactical approach of a Lennox Lewis, he can change a fight with one punch and has a chance against anyone.

    26(26)-0-0 and he's 27, he should be more in the spotlight, and you'd imagine if he was "that good" he'd have done more.

    Yeah, but much bigger, I think that'll help Wilder if he ever faces a Klitschko.

    Price would wreck him. Has power, but he's fighting puddings.

    You got the wheels turning there. Nice. Wilder is really a complete mystery. He and Stewart both fed on the comfort of respected backyards and more than a few hapless bar room bouncers. But I think Stewart was much more composed...better at putting punches together and had already had a couple of 'Oh shit' moments where he had to come off the floor earlier in fights. He had that hurdle jumped. I honestly cannot remember Wilder being hit square on the chin yet...he has everything his way and its not entirely because he is so good but more so by verrrry careful design. Telling is that they said lastnight that he and Price had been thinking about a match for 3 years I hope that was not accurate. Anyone can see ko's if they are feasting on tin men and late subs. One plus though Wilder WAS much more patient to start. He took his time. His form is gangly and loose so hope he gets it together.

    I couldn't help but notice the irony as you mentioned Stewart. Both he and Wilder fought for that Wbc Intercontinental-who cares trinket. Wilder beat a former jr college B ball player lastnight and Stewart went to war, bled and stunned a young Evander Holyfield for it before being taken out, in his 24th.

    Saw him for the first time over the weekend. When I saw him take a guard I couldnt help but think if this..

    When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough
