His chin could be suspect. I saw david haye catching him with a clean right hand in sparring and it looked like wilder froze for a sec..
Bigger man George, bigger punch!

There is a chin problem with Wilder.
2 short clips below, only about 1 minute each, worth a look.
Wilder turned pro Nov 2008 at 23 years old.
Here he is 9 months earlier, Feb 2008, as a 22 year old Amateur getting knocked around and down by Evgenyi Romanov (born in 1985 same as Wilder.)

David Haye sparring Wilder in 2013. Haye was rocking him.

Quite easy to see the liability and susceptibility in this fighter.
Bur hey, Wladimir had some chin issues until Stewart joined him in 2004 and gradually worked out the kinks in his style, developed him, helped him learn to protect the vulnerable chin.
Who the hell invited FAT TUB OF LARD ASS, James "Big Mac" Toney to butt (pun fully intended) in to the conversation?? Go back to your dinner plate, you slurring clown. Only way Toney beats Wilder right now is in an "All-you-can-eat" contest at the neighborhood greasy spoon.
so wilders promo team are lining up a fight with toney..... bit of a crap fight but whatever... he's never been stopped and hopefully makes wilder work for more than 3 rounds
Yeh but it's probably the biggest shot he's taken from a respected heavyweight Mikes always wearing in on the sleeve and really Wilder needs to hear it. You can expect detractors and doubters in the fans but Wilder should take stock in the underlying perspective. It's ironic coming from a guy who also knocked over a truck load of guys in quickies coming up but Mikes saying until you've faced fire and taken a punch it could just as easily say everything about the level your people feel your really at as it does your protected puffed up ko power.
I really feel more and more the powers in charge are trying to walk the china shop through the bull herd with Wilder. I don't see him learning or working a whole lot all that much and it's going to catch up badly when his punch is actually slipped and he doesn't know how to get outta the way.

I think Tyson has the right to say anything he wants, also. I also think he should show some class, unlike the rest of us. LOL He is a promoter, businessman and hopefully a mentor who should be trying to project a positive image along with some good advice.
He had a great chance to do a lot of good when he was younger and for whatever reasons it didn't work out. I hope he doesn't let a second chance slip through his fingers. I'm hopeful this squabble, if there is one, is a one time thing.
Mike Tyson an honest, truthful promoter and businessman. Yeah!!
Mike Tyson a hot tempered, loud mouthed, headhunting promoter and businessman. Hell no!!
Bullshit! Utter bullshit!
Mike won the WBC title within 2 years or turning pro!
The level of fighter that Wlder is stagnating on 6 years in to his pro career is the level of fighter Mike was facing within his first year! Jesse Ferguson beats everyone that Wilder has faced.....
At the same point in Mikes career, 6 years in, he had beaten 3 seperate defending belt holders and had defended all the unified titles 6 successfull times (something no other fighter from any division has done).
Mike can say what the fuck he wants. Hes on everyones greatest list, no matter where, hes there.
Until Wilder gets beaten we cant judge him to much , he will have to step up soon , he has nowhere else to go .If he fails then we will judge him.
Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .
