Wlad would easily beat Stiverne

[Tam Seddon]

Bermane had a great fight with Arreola he landed hard, he followed up, and he closed the show.


I did notice that Bermane liked waiting out Arreola. B would move against the ropes, absorb an attack and then fire back once Cris was tired, or if there was an opening. Those openings won't be available the same way vs Wlad or vs Wilder. Arreola didn't move his head much and he was easy to find to the body...that's going to be considerably different than Wlad or Wilder who don't have big beer bellies on them, there will just be less area to hit.


I hope the guy continues to be a strong tough fighter, but I also hope he makes a unification bout soon.

Those tactics for sure wont work vs those two. I think hes too slow to do anything really, hes got power but with no size or speed hes not going to keep that belt for long.

unbder wlads rules it would be a carbon copy of the rest of his defenses

in america it might be interesting

Ha, I hate to say it but he doesn't deserve a world title, we criticize Wlad but Stiverne will not last 3 with either Klitschko. Vitali wants it back he can have it back inside a few short months.

Klitschko would do him harm. Imagine if it was Wlad or Vitali that had him against the ropes that many times?

Joke champion, at least he has 15 minutes. He should avoid Klitschko, Wilder and Fury.

the only way stiverne wins is just going straight forward and trying to knock him out. he cant fight the same fight as he did against arreola because wlad will just keep him on the end of his jab.

Stiverne would knock Fury spark out. Fury wouldn't be getting up from a Stiverne right hand.

I'm interested in its historical significance but from a style perspective its a cautious safety first fighter verses a possum. It could prove to be about as exciting as watching the mating ritual of dragon flies on top of pond scum on the National Geo channel. Or because of that we could get a shocker with one or both approaching this fight differently. After all, it would be for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world.

I say IF Wilder can take the belt from Stiverne, and I think he can, then we would have a heavyweight unification bout worth getting excited for.


Truthfully, I'd like to see Wilder take on a good world class opponent (Chisora, Thompson, even Charr) first then face Stiverne.
