So, Deontay Wilder?

[killersheep]

Have been sitting here logging the last few weeks of shows and rewatched his last 3 few showcases.Nice size...very thin for 6'7,legs....he does not seem to plant his feet with over hand right.Long punches but falls in.Need to see him catch a few stiff shots.Getting a major push and very visable but should get some off air time and develope....I always try to think of some past early prospects and ask yourself....what were you thinking while they KO'd the early padding fights and how they turned out when it got deep?They should take their time with him.

The curse of being the only US OLympian with a medal, ALL of his fights will be televised.

I would like to see him in with a bit tougher opposition. Nothing serious but someone who can at least take one right hand before hitting the deck. I would switch it up a bit. Put him in with every type of oppenent. A slick left hander, a brawler , a boxer. I guess similiar to what Ray Leonard started with.

No doubt.Especially as a heavyweight representing the States.I just hope he doesn't go all Michael Grant on us.Have not noticed if he has dropped this annoying habit but in his early go's.....he would do this thing with his right hand after it landed.Sort of slowly 'draw' it up and back in an exaggerated fashion,trying to be showy or something.

It's too early, i doubt his own camp even knows what to think of this guy yet. so far the guys he's fought he could have saved time and beat them over the phone
