Deontay Wilder - Could He Just Step It Up A Tad? Empty Deontay Wilder - Could He Just Step It Up A Tad?

Post by AlexHuckerby Sun 17 Jun 2012, 5:09 pm

I mean granted, they want to bring him along slowly, but how slow do you have to bring him along?

His next fight is against Owen Beck, who has lost his last 7 and is 36. Now, ok, I'm all for bulding someone up slowly and not putting them into title fights before they are ready. However, surely they could put him up against someone who can throw back? Just someone who will ask some form of a question on the real stage, not talking about euro type level opposition, literally am talking about some form of half decent domestic type opposition, just a bit worse than a Sam Sexton type of fighter.

Why do they seem to just want him to face real bums, constantly? Surely by now they should be giving him something that ask SOME form of a question.... Right?

Golden Boy are waiting on the Klitschkos to retire then they will release the Bronze Bomber on the World. For now he will just keep beating up the morbidly obese and elderly.

But surely during this time he could be learning a bit more than he is, without making major waves.

I agree but they seem to want to hold him back unless they know something that we don't like he is an alien or something. Who knows.

Very strange for someone who looks to have talent to still be fighting at this level after 20 odd fights.

I think the sooner he fights someone decent the sooner he will be on Wlad's radar which is something his promoter will want to avoid at all costs. Wouldn't be at all surprised if his sparring is more competitive than his fights.

Well, I desperately hope he's learning stuff in the gym, because otherwise he's literally just stagnating.

Also, surely he can just not bother to fight Wlad, pretty similar to what actual Top Ten ranked HW's like Povetkin and Fury etc. are doing.

I agree with this comment, the Yanks love a golden boy and a young, cocky, undefeated heavyweight will instantly connect with the viewers. For all their talent in the middle weights the Yanks probably crave for the next best heavyweight more than us Brits. To say you have the best fighter in the world is something they've been wanting to do for years. It's like the Olympics, you can be the best at 400 or 800 metres, but what draws in the biggest crowd and the most amount of interest is the 100m, to see who the fastest man in the world is.

It hurts me to say but, i see Wilder outworking Fury and outfoxing Price.

His matchmaker should be fired, he is the most hyped boxer around today. He has a decent amatuer background getting a bronze medal but are so afrai to move up competition. He has fought only obese fighters or cruiser weights and a couple ex LHW journeymen

These days if you stick your head even a little above the parapet, you get called out by the Klitschko's. They really will target anyone who looks half decent. Not really their fault, they're just scratching for any worthwhile matchups.

Povetkin etc. seem to manage to avoid a K Bro fight and has FAR more credentials than Deontay Wilder will even if he does decide to take on 3 or 4 domestic type opponents, so I'm pretty sure he can just say no to a fight at this stage and not get too much chucked at him.

He has a lot of hype, but personally I see him as a US level fighter (as opposed to Euro level). No great shakes. His version of the Ali shuffle is hilarious. Two left feet.

I'd be surprised. Decent amateur background. Heavweight bronze in 2008, whilst David Price got super heavyweight bronze.

Mind you, by the time he does step up in class he'll be ready to retire!

I just feel that being fed a diet of stiffs is detrimental to his development as it could lead to him becoming complacent over his oppostion and over-rating his own abilities. He could find himself in serious trouble the moment he takes on someone who will take his shots and fight back.

Your record is only as good as who you have fought and beat. Its an old promoters trick thats been going on since boxing began to line up no hopers to make their fighter look good and con the public into thinking they are watching the next big thing.

Even great fighters like Ali and the Sugar Rays lost but that was because they were fighting the best fighters in the world and not journeymen that the likes of Price, Harrison and Fury are matched with.

I almost got excited when I heard he was fighting against another unbeaten boxer, however I've just checked out the guys record on Boxrec (sorry)

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=398870&cat=boxer

He may be 13-0, but only three of those fights have been against fighters with more wins than losses!

C'mon Deontay, step it up a tad!

Didn't he almost get taken out by Harold Sconiers? He's built like a HW Tommy Hearns and may have the same weaknesses in the punch resistance department because of it.

I read an article on wilder(pretty sure it was trustworthy) pretty much stating they planned to have 25 fights(against easy opposition) before stepping up the level. This was to make up for a relatively short amature career, even though he won that bronze. Will try and find the article for anyone whos interested.

This guy he is fighting does have a decent win against Hamer on his record to be fair, but a few MD against no hopers.

The guy is useless. Poor footwork and balance. All arms and legs flailing like a 1920s boxer. useless. The moment he steps up in anythng resembling class, he'll get found out.

Jeez that article was one sided. I don't disagree the guy is among them with the top prospects in the HW's, but stating he could beat Price and Fury with just a right hand is ludicrous, I would prefer to see him against a live opponent preferably, rather than just stating he's the best and it's not even an arguement.

Deontay Wilder is the real deal...He would be the one to dethrone Wlad if anyone could.

Wilder has openly stated his desire to fight Tyson Fury so im sure he will start stepping it up soon.

PBF to be fair fury has been saying he wants to fight all these top fighters and snds up fighting the rogans/maddelones out there, so wouldnt put to much weight behind what wilder said. That being said i would back wilder to take out fury, as fury has shown he can be susceptable to the overhand right and wilder has a HUGE overhand right!(still cant shake the image of him being floored by that obese guy though, was hilarious!)

He called out Tyson Fury, that would be an interesting matchup. He is also helping Audley Harrison get ready for David Price.

That sounds good to be fair, at least he seems to be showing his intent to step it up, but going from journyeman to Fury is a bit of a step... Maybe a bit too much of a step up, I know I created this article to say that Wilder should be fighting at a higher level, but going up against a guy who is about a fringe world level contender at this moment in time and is at least (Ranked) in the top 10.

From journeyman to fringe world level contender is a massive leap, I would at least have liked him to go to a Vinny Maddalone type of guy, to at least see what happens when he lands and the guy doesn't fall over straight away.

Wilder has fought dross, but given his age and lack of experience I think the 25 fights plan seems fair and pretty smart.

For what it's worth I'd back him to beat Fury, who doesn't make great use of his size and looks fairly open to a right hand.

Whatever happens, presuming they all have desire for it, Mitchell/Price/Wilder/Fury could all provide some interesting fights in the next few years.
