Campillo went down 2 times vs Cloud, well we now know you can read Boxrec but you obviously did not watch the rest of the fight. Boone lost to Stevens sure but had also just steamrolled some guy named Adonis Stevenson pre Kovalev fight
Not sure why the age of 27 is a point other than that it stacks your deck. Considering Kovalev did not turn pro until he was 26 and had all of 8 fights by then...where as Wilder popped at 23 and has essentially fought his whole career by 27All he did is manage to extend his list of professional stunt men, ghosts and part time dog washers to a lifetime. Cheers champ.
I was quite impressed by wilder today... looking forward to seeing if he can get to the top and what he can do in the future ! I hope so anyway.
God you are a moron,cause I actually watch fights you think it's boxrec, what Boone got 18 losses, but you think that's a good win huh? Anyway if this was a Euro you would deep throat him but he's black so he can do nothing right.
Let me ask you this moron who has been around boxing longer Broner or Wilder? Deontay got a ton of time.
Onetime does have a point. Lets keep Wilder in perspective. He has a total fight experience, amateur and pro, of less than 150 rounds. As a pro...less than 150 minutes experience. If he was ranked or given a cheesy title shot at this point then I would be on the bus of criticism as well but the guy is greener than a brussel sprout. He took up the sport in his 20s as a basketball reject. I know us Americans want a great heavyweight right now but lets be realistic. Dude needs some years still. He really hasn't learned enough in his pro fights because they average less than 2 rounds per. I know its risky but if I was his trainer I wouldn't be wholeheartedly against him carrying an opponent or two. I bet we can take a poll right now and find that many of us have more fight experience than Wilder.

It really does bug me, Wilder is not being stuffed down our throats and not one person on this board builds him up, so why this need to knock him down. It would be like me picking a Russian prospect and insulting him. Deontay is fighting on ShowBox and learning how to jab from Lennox, but what do you expect though these are the same people who claimed Danny was scared of Lucas.
I agree.. I saw on the show last night he only had 35 or something amatuer fights and he managed to win a medal at the olympics, thats not bad... His pro career has been a bit odd and not really that impressive at all and his windmill punching v harrison was rather amusing but I thought he looked like he has something fairly special v the white wolf.. Wilder has fast hands and he looks to be able to generate nasty power fairly easily, finished of the fight last night very well but he clearly needs to start fighting guys who have boxing skills, I would think Kevin johnstone would be a great opponent for him, he's a runner with fair skills and would make wilder work over far more rounds than he is used to doing but it seems like his going after arreola or mitchell next, which would be a better win if he emerges victorius but i tihnk he would learn less than fighting kingpin..
Fuckin A sonYou really are a special kind of simple aren't you. You brought Boone up, and for a 10th fight given what he had faced, shown, and off a huge upset it was a very tolerable opponent as a measuring stick. Numbers don't mean shit, its the substance and circumstance. You want durable guys who have faced quality to get those rounds. 15-0 can be an echo chamber and you can also ko 15 john does learning natas. Hell of alot better to see in early on then be scrounging for it tip toing around the edges and still looking on your 30th fight for fucks sake! And piss right off with your racial hang ups and homoerotic pro tips and opines. Write a fookin book.
