Wilder's Head is Too Small--he will LOSE!

I think most people would be surprised if either of these guys stood up to the others best shot, that's what makes it a fun fight. Have a really hard time seeing much ebb and flow for the same reason though! Will Stiverne be able to throw a reasonable amount of punches instead of looking for the one perfect counter, and is WIlder even capable of winning rounds from the outside?

Yep, it is a pretty small head. As far as heads go, it is a kind of SMW proportion perched on a very long, lanky frame. Will that be the difference? I could not say for sure, but phrenology is one of my interests and believe a small head indicates higher intelligence and is a sign of enhanced evolution. All these fat, big headed heavyweights are not the way to go if you want smarts, speed and range. However, they can thump pretty hard and if a small head is clubbed you can get some of the most spectacular KO's. In the film Mars Attacks, I felt the small headed aliens were presented in a mean spirited way and similarly I think Brockton might be approaching it from a Hollywood entranced angle. Sometimes the small heads can be moral, resiliant and devastating in the boxing ring. Paul Williams and Thomas Hearns are other examples of the small headed brigade. They were very good and could throw long punches and hurt people, but sometimes they could get absolutely bombed away and that gives some evidence to support Brockton's thesis. The big heads like Baldomir, Valuev, the cave troll, the rhino, and Dennis Lebedev look very intimidating, seldom get stopped, but you can outbox them as they lack the co-ordination, speed, and intelligence of the future evolved being boxer type. It should be a fun fight.

Even though I am backing Stiverne and I maintain he is an excellent boxer and all that, there's one thing @p4pking already alluded to that shits me about him and lets him down a bit.

His workrate sucks!

Now I understand better than most that a 240lber with as much muscle as Stiverne can't produce the kind of output as a smaller HW even if he IS conditioned really well.

But his output is often downright lazy! Being cerebral and not wasting shots is fine but he should apply more pressure than he does! If so, he might find he creates openings for smashing counters more often than merely waiting for a mistake.

The Haitian knows how to smash-in lil' pea-heads who knock out schizophrenic civilians like zelenoff.

His head is to small,did you think of this when you were taking a dump,
because all great thinkers need inspiration.

I realize there is no scientific basis for thinking that a bigger dick or head or nose or ears or shoulders means anything at all. But when I saw Wilder's head in comparison to Stiverne's massive noggin, I got this sudden feeling Stiv would smash that lil' walnut in.

Just wish we could see their bare feet, you can tell a lot about a mans fighting ability by the length of different toes.
Teddy could explain it better, but it has something to do with leverage and real estate.
You know what I'm saying! Lol

I'm a 13 with hairy, veiny feet and a big toe that resembles a potato. Do I have potential?

My head is quite big too.

[Max Power]

Manny is a little less slighter naturally built than Mayweather.

If Money can perfectly counter Manny with a big shot like the "lightening in a jar incident" then he could knock him out.

That's a FAT chance.

MOST likely scenario is Manny overwhelms Money for a UD win, possible late KO, based on real performance assessments.

Offensive fighters like Manny of course are open to more upsets. But they ARE upsets!

Was that a russet or sweet potato? Teddy says length does matter😉, and he's undecided about the fat head in this case. Lol

No, Wilder will lose because he's hittable, windmills his punches, and doesn't use his reach.

People say Wilder wins because of his reach. Attributes mean nothing if you don't use them properly.
