    Wilder was never brutally embarrassed by Purrity or a golfer

    he never quit against any of the middleweights he fought.

    Unlike Vitali.

    To be fair, that Golfer would kill Wilder in quicker time than it took him to destroy Wlad.

    If you're asking "best opponent," then surely Price.

    If you're asking "most impressive performance, then Price, Abron, Long, and Arnold all showed skills that wilder has, (defense, footwork, jabbing, etc) which the haters try to pretend don't exist.

    Not saying he's fought anyone really good yet, of course he hasn't, but he's given some very respectable performances within the "cabdriver" limitation. There are morons on ESB who constantly claim Wilder never even fought anyone with a winning record. It's truly bizarre.

    ------------------------

    FWIW, while none of these guys were even top-100, all were decent fighters:

    Kelvin Price 13 (KO 6) - 0

    Kertson Manswell 22 (KO 17) - 5

    Jesse Oltmanns 10 (KO 7) - 2

    David Long 11 (KO 7) -1 -2

    Daniel Cota 17 (KO 10) -3 -1

    DeAndrey Abron 15 (KO 10) - 6

    Shannon Caudle 9 (KO 8 ) -0 -1

    Ty Cobb 7 (KO 6) -1

    My point is he has fought NO-ONE in 27 fights.

    There are fights out there yet his people have not taken them. I wonder why??

    Take the path of least resistance, eventually slip your way into a title shot against a weak champ when the time is right, then whine about people not giving you enough credit...this formula has been proven to work.

    Please name these mythical fights. I'd be fascinated to here about them.

    Several guys have flat out turned him down, such as Tyson Fury and Bryant Jennings.

    GBP stopped the Wilder - Jennigns fight, but hey I wouldn't let Deontay fight on a Main Event card.

    That's a laugh. When your opponents are routinely failing to rank within the top one hundred I think it's safe to say you're not taking on the best out there.

    Deontay as improved since harold, he is just a better fighter now, if he was the same fighter he was against Harold he would have been KO'd by price.

    Wrong, that is the other way around, Fury's people turned Wilder and GBP down.
