Despite being somewhat obstreperous outside the ring I don't think he fights with a 'crazy' attitude. He looked like a docile little lamb against Jennings and was fighting weary against Mike Mollo. Now he's facing someone who hits much harder than anyone he's faced, has several inches in height and reach on him, and isn't shot like Adamek or a clubfighter like nearly all his other foes. Of course mediocre Molina hurt Deontay and gave him some issues, so it's not like Artur can't do the same, but I'll be surprised if AT doesn't get knocked out.

As for the undercard bout, I like unproven Martin over always unimpressive Glazkov.

As for the crazy, so far he's been supposed to beat everyone he's faced, now he's being written off and that can bring out the crazy...then again I really don't like Wilder and think a good shot on the chin will be the end of him...

Odds are still dropping. Down from 8-1 to 4 1/2-1.

this ko was as predictable as Haye's.

Wilder's next defence has to be serious...he's scraped the bottom too long now
