As a fighter and now as a trainer, Malik always sounds so viable, but as soon as it gets into the ring, he’s come up short

[@renegadebrad7448]

True he talks like a very wise master but master has been guiding Wilder to defeat after defeat lol

[@MaccaveliPL]

​@@renegadebrad7448 well, Wilder always been a limited boxer. You can only do so much as a trainer with him.

[@user-cw6sk3yg9q]

Sold few fights one with wilder where he took a dive and quitting against Delboy mans was throwing fights

[@leehaslam5751]

He wont he will get knocked out by Zhang

[@leonardcharles59]

Scott's attitude is much, much different in this interview. He knows that Wilder's talent is very doubtful and limited and that he lacks the discipline to beat fighters who have a good ring iq and can set up punches, which Zhang does. He isnt fast on his feet and gets tired, but does Deontay Wilder know how to exploit his shortcomings? That's what he'll have to do to win. Outsmart Zhang , get him to waste his energy and then finish him or he loses , maybe badly.

[@petermontgomery8707]

I would back AJ in that but people got to think 4 fights back 3 fights back people were saying AJ was done.Looked poor in the Franklin fight,looked very ordinary in the helanius fight.Hes knocked out 2 guys,one average,one a novice and now he’s the greatest fighter on earth.If wilder were to ko Zhang in one everyone would be screaming he’s back.Could happen(doubt it),Zhang is a southpaw and Wilders the big right hand

Wilders pace is taylormade for zhang, you have to keep zhang moving and turning thats when your chances will come. Wilder has no footwork and has completely forgot how to throw a jab. I expect zhang to stop him Wilder is a shot fighter, a shell of his formerself

[@chimezieaghadinuno]

Malik Scott should be better as a friend not a trainer. Deontey should look for himself a formidable trainer.

[@tonysa2337]

I am sure Malik Scott is a good 'friend' to Wilder; they're both bigoted morons who fantasise about violence, hurting and killimg. The lack of humility and the way they play the victim card and make excuses when they lose iis revolting, but also hilarious.

[@marvinwashington2600]

[@DONTTAKEITTOTHESTUPID]

Malik Scott doesn’t have the experience as a coach to combat Team Zhang’s game plan.

[@richs4358]

Sounds like you know what you’re talking about.. what’s the gameplan?

[@thebigdogg2866]

Malik Scott has as much brains as wilder does 😂 all Scott does is rub wilders ego

[@DONTTAKEITTOTHESTUPID]

@@richs4358 Stay calm, win the foot-fight, and throw that left hand straight down the pipe. Zhang will quietly walk Wilder down and dip to his right, out the way of Wilder's right hand, and throw that big straight left to either hurt Wilder or get him off balance, and then come back with that clean-up right hook. I'm rooting for Wilder, but this is an easy win for Zhang if he presses Wilder the first 4 rounds. However, if Wilder somehow survives, then he has a chance for the win. I just don't think Malik Scott has the experience to prepare Wilder for the monster, silver medalist Zhelei Zhang.

[@clancyyoung9994]

You’re gonna get him KOed with the big boys. Wilder got his 1st taste when he fought Fury. He’s not beating Zang. 212 against 290.. Wilder is done as a heavyweight. He should take the maiden voyage and be the face of the new Bridger weight division.

[@Charlie-yu9ce]

​@clancyyoung9994 you just limited your own abilities with that mind set. Warriors never worry about weight. If you was to face a guy 90 pounds more then you, you will automatically lose thinking like that. Get your confidence up buddy. Have a good day

[@clancyyoung9994]

@@Charlie-yu9ce look size matters if you're participating in the sport of boxing . Fury is by far the most skilled of the big men. Although I am a fan of Usyk and believe he deserves everything he's earn. I don't think he has much of a chance against Furys skill height weight and length. I'm 66 and have never seen a big man like Fury have such fluid movement and the ability to completely change his game plan at any moment in a fight. Every single person that has hurt Fury has regretted getting in the ring with him. Why because they get beat the fk up. I'm not a fan boy with any Fury mania agenda . After seeing the best and studying the sport that's my opinion. Swim without getting wet is the goal and it's amazing Fury can do that with the size he has.

[@G-Man78]

[@hamdanfalcon]

@@MorningWoodFairy that’s another scenario, but either way, I think it will be fun to watch I’ll be laughing both are awkward

[@Azad_2024_]

It does t need to be that simple tbh. If wilder plays to his own strengths gastank, speed and power he can deffo beat zhang. However if it's the wilder who turned up against parker then zhang will smoke him. I'll hold my fire on placing a bet actually right up until the ring walk. I'm a wilder fan but I'd be concerned the wilder from the parker turns up again in which case zhang wins with ease.

[@hamdanfalcon]

@@Azad_2024_ we saw what happened with Joe Joyce if you don’t move consistently side to side which makes Zhang gasses so quickly, Wilder moves backwards with no head movements I just don’t see Zhang not landing, he carries POWER so any touch will have effect on Wilder with them skinny legs. For me Zhang KO with 3-4 rounds

Malik Scott has no idea what he's doing! But that's to be expected given that he was one of Wilder's knockout victims. When Wilder turned up to his 2nd fight with Fury all bulked up, I knew Malik was clueless. Wilder should pay up for a real, experienced boxing coach.

[@jamestaylor841]

It was the 3rd fight and it was arguably his best performance out of all 3 I don't agree with this he needed to lose weight after that. That was the best seem him fight ever I reckon if could of gotten used to carrying that extra weight he would be in a better spot then he is now. He's given up 40lbs atleast in every fight he's had

​@@jamestaylor841best performance? He won the 1st round and the 4th(only due to the 2 knockdowns) the rest of the fight was absolutely terrible...

[@Le1fur]

​@@jamestaylor841the weight was almost entirely in his upper body, it really was badly distributed and didn't do anything positive, rather only made it seem like he was punching with a rubber suit on.

[@freezhollywood]

@@jamestaylor841ya he had to bulk up he was just too top heavy. All tht muscle should’ve went to his legs. Then he lost all tht muscle. It’s like he depleted his body. Kinda like Roy when he went back down to LHW. Roy looked weak. So does Wilder now.

Very clever man.. making more money as a trainer with the 10-15 percent cut in wilders fights.. a wilder as lost to fury.. Parker.. in vegas an Saudi money.. now another Saudi money fight.. blokes killing it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@afroissuez292]

He talks too much.. Wilder talks too much.. So, they go to training and feeling excited because they sound good and convincing when they talk. Everyone needs to remember that Wilder’s biggest win was against old man Ortiz.. Wilder has never ever beaten any elite fighter.. Check his resume; most of the fighters he beat were ranked 9ver 300, over 200 and over 100.. He might be lucky in this over because he’s fighting someone who doesn’t move at all and doesn’t step up the gas because he doesn’t wanna get tired. If Zhang could work on cardio and get really fit, he will blow wilder away in 3 rounds. Again, wilder too might be too keen to impress and walks into those Zhang’s heavy hands and the fight is over. The reason I said this is because wilder has no boxing skill AT ALL. Fact!!
