So, they are gonna run away the entire fight?


Nobody possesses the skill at HW to "take away" Wilder's Golden Gun...aint no good defensive fighters at HW. They would have to literally back up the entire fight to get out of reach of Wilder, which would make them look like they're running :manny:






That's a valid option....but you would have to risk giving up YOUR chin to try and land on Wilder's:mjpls:

You don't have to be a runnerfor the first. Look at someone like Ward, he doesn't run but he is a master of defusing fighters' strenghts.
Hw doesn't have Andre Wards though that's true.
I can see Klitschko pulling that off against Wilder though. Idk which one of them has a longerjab but the difference shouldn't be big abd Wlad mastered over the years how to completely utilize that jab. Fury outjabbed him but Fury has that awkward movement which Wilder doesn't have and even he didn't connect much on Wlad it was a pretty dull fight.

As for the second one I think Joshua could do that if we don't find something very bad against Wlad. Joshua typically puts on the volume early on.
Of course Wilder can't be written off against anyone though, if he connects that right clean it's probably over for anyone.

yep that's my other thought too...he's vulnerable but who can do it? IDK if Joshua is skilled enough, idk if Fury is sober, if Vlad is able enough, is Parker experienced enough, is Whyte big/powerful enough?!?!?! :lupe:
Forget Fury man, dude is 300 lbs + he won't come back

You already responded with what I was going to say:heh:

Fury outjabbed him but Fury has that awkward movement which Wilder doesn't have and even he didn't connect much on Wlad it was a pretty dull fight.

Fury beat him by making a circle around the ring....Klits cant deal with movement at all from someone his size. Look how tentative he was against Fury. He barely let his hands go, and Wilder has 5x the power fury has. Wilder would HAVE to move though, or Klits will bomb him out imo.

As for the second one I think Joshua could do that if we don't find something very bad against Wlad. Joshua typically puts on the volume early on.

Joshua has to beat someone that's at least a B fighter before I start talking about how his skills translate to the top tier HWs. His best win is Breazeale.


Of course Wilder can't be written off against anyone though, if he connects that right clean it's probably over for anyone.

True, but I think if Klits (and if Bruno is actually legit, him too) connects with a right hand on Wilder, it may be over as well. I don't know. I really think it will come down simply to whoever can deal with the other's power better.

Ortiz, Joshua are like 50/50 fights for Wilder. I'd pick Joshua to win tho.

Whyte, Chisora, Parker, and Haye would be underdogs but live as Hell. I think Haye could beat him.

Wilder is like Stevenson in a sense that he has his glaring ass weaknesses, but his strength is a huge advantage and hard as fukk to deal with or take away.

It's easy to say, bait Wilder and roll or smother his right hand to render it ineffective. Out jab him and go to his body consistently. Yeah that is good in theory, but that nikka is talented an athletic as hell. Plus he's tall as fukk with Mr. Fantastic reach. Most of all Wilder is a game emotional dude. He knows when he's struggling and will slug it out on some fukk it type shyt just to will his way to win. Mcline would do the same shyt from time to time and give nikkas hell and he ain't as quick, talented, or as athletic as Wilder.

Regardless of the flaws, big talented, athletic boxers that fight tall are a handful to deal with.

nikkas acting like Wilder is Lance Whittiker or some shyt. :mjlol:

Shinsuke Yamanaka Too Good, Too Strong in KO of Carlson

As everyone had predicted, Carlos Carlson was no match for “God’s Left.”

Shinsuke Yamanaka mauled the Mexican challenger and retained his WBC bantamweight title with a seventh-round technical knockout victory at Tokyo’s Ryogoku Kokugikan on Thursday night.

Yamanaka (27-0-2, 19 KOs) defended his title for the 12th consecutive time, breaking a tie with ex-WBA super featherweight champion Takashi Uchiyama for the second-most title defenses by a Japanese boxer. The 34-year-old is now one win away from equaling former WBA light flyweight champion Yoko Gushiken’s national record.

“I’ve repeatedly said this, but I’m not dwelling on the record,” Yamanaka said after the bout. “I’d just be pleased if my fans have fun with my fights.”

Yamanaka controlled the pace from the beginning and sent Carlson to the canvas five times, all of the knockdowns coming in the fifth round or later. But Carlson was tough and kept landing back on his feet. He desperately delivered some blows on Yamanaka in the fifth round, but the champion regrouped, relying on his effective jab.

Referee Ian John Lewis stopped the fight 57 seconds into the seventh round when Yamanaka knocked Carlson down for the second time in the frame.

It might have taken a little longer for Yamanaka to end the match than people had expected. In fact, Yamanaka said that he did some things he would have to reflect on while he displayed some positive things.

“I wasn’t really able to put the full strength on my blows early on,” Yamanaka said. “But I made adjustments to it as the fight wore on.”

Yamanaka added that he need to do better in clinching Carlson (22-2-2) when the challenger came at him aggressively.

Yamanaka’s trainer Shin Yamato praised his boxer for not letting Carlson seize the momentum when he landed some punches by smartly changing his game plan in the middle of the fight.

“‘(Carlson) was tough, came back up every time he took knockdowns, and attacked on (Yamanaka),” Yamato said. “But (Yamanaka) changed his boxing and ended up beating him. He wouldn’t let him have the pace. It’s really incredible that he switched his style of fighting during the fight.”

One of the biggest changes Yamanaka made during the fight was starting to use his right fist more frequently, not his signature, devastating left.

“My corner told me to go more with my right, so I did it,” Yamanaka recalled. “And it led to the finish (with my left). In the seventh round, my right was good from the beginning, and when I use my right better, it usually leads me to land my left.”
