Bermane Stiverne – Deontay Wilder: Fight Prediction

By Carrie Riedel

This is inevitably going to be one of the best Heavyweights fights we’ve seen in a while. May very well also be the shortest, due solely to the skills and raw power of both fighters, regardless of totally different fighting styles.

Personally, with Wilder’s reach, I think he can take the powerhouse Stiverne with a few quick, clean and solid landing punches. But, he’s going to have to start this fight quick and end it quick. Wilder must “B. Ware” of his opponents explosive power and find that sweet spot first.

Bigger (mass) doesn’t always mean better.

Whatever the outcome, cheers to both athletes and I look forward to the fight!
