WBC Heavyweight Title fight

[victor-romeo]

I never think much of a fighter who earns a higher reputation by actually losing.

IMO, Wilder has done actual stone 0 up to this point. He never punched an opponent who was attempting to win. He never boxed an opponent who was attempting to win. He never took a punch from an opponent who was attempting to win. Some of his opponents even look like they were paid to take a dive, and were selling the KO Hollywood-style. If there was a doctor taking the vital signs of these opponents before the fight, it would just be 32 guys with no pulse. Being that he's done absolutely nothing of substance, his record might as well be 0-0 right now. Earning a reputation from losing narrowly to a top fighter counts for a lot more than earning a reputation from doing absolutely not a single thing at all. If he's a hair worse than Stiverne, then that means he's maybe #6 or #7. If he's as big of a fraud as Seth Mitchell or Audley Harrison, which he still might be given that he's done nothing up to this point, then he might not even really belong in the top 25.

I don't know much about Audley Harrison but to the rest of what you wrote the gist of it is correct.

Wilder is the favourite according to the sim public.

one day to go.

Stiverne:239
Wilder: 219

Wilder seems quite light for someone his height, but looking at his legs it becomes more understandable.

[Boxing Prospect]

As mentioned Wilder looked scared... I think he realised he's getting hit back this time around...

I expect the Haitian Hurricane to blow Wilder away in short order, but this is boxing. Anything can happen. I hope whatever it is though we aren't complaining about being robbed the next day because of some stupid freak accident.

An 18 inch thigh absolutely pathetically thin...

I hope Wilder can keep his knees healthy.
