I honestly don't see Wlad fighting EITHER of these dudes (he was eager as hell to fight short ass Stiverne for the belt), mainly because he's not doing any drug testing......plus he doesn't want to share the dough. Also, I know BOTH of them saw that jab. If Wilder sets either of them up and follows with the straight right hand it's over.
What da hell you talkin about man.
Wlad said not two days ago in an interview,Wlad was more vocal about Stiverne's chance as he knew Wilder from sparring,he also said he can give it but not take it.and now we have Deontay saying he dont want the champ next,surprised much ? I'm not !
Stiverne could not tag Wilder all night,he could not negate the range in the one instance he did manage around round 5 I think,Wilder looked visibly shook.
I'm not hating on Wilder,he looked superb ladt night,credit where it is due.he fought the perfect fight against the smaller guy.Fury is perfect seasoning in preparation for Wlad,he will be facing a guy with a huge reach who will have the benefit of having a larger reach than Stiverne has as Wlad.
Wilder now has a signature win,which is great for him as he now commands the respect he deserves,I'm not sure he deserved any before this with the opposition he was facing at 32 fights in I believe he should have long since finished facing those guys after his 15-16th fights.
I honestly believed Wilder had been over cooked,I thought his soft touch opponents would lead him into danger when stepping up against the world class Stiverne.what a great fight,how many saw a points decision coming with no official knockdowns.the money to have been made last night.
