Wilder is 40-0-1 with 39 KO’s and he’s 33 years old and 6’7” in height. The Bronze Bomber didn't start boxing until his early 20’s but proved to be a quick study as he earned a Bronze Medal (get it Bronze Bomber) in the 2008 Olympics. In his toughest fight to date (by far) he was fortunate to get a draw with Tyson Fury (my opinion.) Yes he did knock down Fury twice, but consensus scoring had him losing 8 out of the 12 rounds. Maybe I’m biased because I predicted Fury to win by decision and took the fight to go over 9.5 rounds. He has big, one punch knockout power especially in his right hand. When he gets an opponent in big trouble, he looks like a 5 year old fighting his older brother as he swings wildly and recklessly with both hands. He tends to flick a powerful, accurate jab to control the action but has next to no foot movement. Avoids punches with head movement and sports “iron in his chin” and has excellent recuperative powers. Movement and quickness are his kryptonite.
Breazeale is 20-1 with 18 KO’s. He started boxing at 23 after being a college quarterback for Northern Colorado. He was a U.S. Olympian in 2012 (lost in the prelims). Has faced a list of “Who’s Not” opponents and lost by KO in his only significant fight to Anthony Joshua. I’m not sure how many times he was sacked as a college quarterback, but his footwork is not only slow but I would describe it as ponderous. He has a stiff, quick jab and insists on only fighting on the outside. He looks to counterpunch and fights back strongly after getting tagged. Has a questionable chin as he was down in fights against Masur, Ugonoh (and down and out) against Joshua.
Prediction:
Expect a jabbing contest as each fighter stays on the outside and headhunts. Wilder struggled early against Gerald Washington, another tall, strong, big punching fighter (played college football as well.) I expect Breazeale to have early success counterpunching Wilder. But Wilder can end the fight at any moment with one big right hand. Unfortunately, Breazeale doesn't have the foot movement, ring savvy or chin to stay with Wilder for 12 rounds. The question for me is how will Wilder win? I think he wears Breazeale down and stops him inside of ten rounds.
