Gerry Cooney vs Deontay Wilder

Post by zuru »

Everyone has their opinions but in no way shape or form can I envision Wilder winning.Cooney would attack and if Wilder tried to slug he'd be knocked out.If he tried to move,Cooney would walk him down and take him apart.Wilder would avoid this fight like it was the plague.He don't have the size,skills or heart to fight Cooney.

Wilder by early ko. Bigger puncher, better athlete, tougher, more heart, etc..

Wilder by KO. Cooney just had no tools of avoiding at taking Wilder's clean punch.

I kind of think the opposite.Wilder has not the skills and Cooney is by far the hardest puncher he's ever faced.Rewatch Cooney before you dismiss him.Speed savagery and brutal power.Ramrod jab and wicked body attack.Cooney was very underrated.

Cooney enjoyed his length advantage aside from tremendous punching power. But without that advantage, Wilder splatters him.

Wilder by first round stoppage. There's a huge difference in talent between these two fighters.
