Jay Deas wants Deontay Wilder to fight Charles Martin next

[Master]

Yeah Povetkin's listed at 6-2, which is quite "shrimpy" next to behemoths Wilder (6-7) and Fury (6-9). If Wilder worked feverishly on his boxing skills and using his jab like you alluded to, he very well might keep Povetkin honest enough to go into the late rounds and win either by late KO or decision. But I think Wilder's spectacular KO victories against lesser opponents have not given him the incentive to think he may have to hone his skills. Dangerous against someone like Povetkin.

Povetkin looks more muscular now and probably hits harder. He will work Wilder harder than anyone else he has faced.

Oh yeah deffinitly Povetkin should be Wilders hardest opponent and probably would beat him if he fights like he has been but I dont think he will. I think he will fight very cautious and move. The question is, is he good enough to do that for 12 rounds without getting caught because even against Stiverne his defence just consisted of shutting up shop with his gloves up. He doesnt have much in the way of defensive skill as in head or upper body movement.

It would deffinitely be an interesting fight if they ever actually both decide to go ahead.

Wilder will likely fight Martin next

Wilder is officially the biggest pussy heavyweight champion of the world.

Vitali should cash in his emeritus status and take on povetkin for the wbc belt if wilder dumps, the mayor of kiev vs russia would be great fun at this point of the ukraine russia disagreement :S
