    Fighting stronger competition per the numbres in less fights can only be more positive. If you can match such numbers in under 31 fights, you will be included in such a list. It is only fair. Povetkin is miles ahead by this standard.

    Its impressive, but not in this analysis. This one puts Wilder career on a hard comparison vs legends and lesser fighters...

    That means you did it few times less...Those last leading to 31 might be a loss

    I respect Inoue, Ioka & Loma for going that route...I will respect them more if they keep it up till 31 fights

    I strongly oppose limited fights careers...as its not in line with what we want, more tests = more fights = proof of superiority

    Thanks for adding to list Mongoose! Didn't realize how good of wins both Povetkin and Peter really are for Wlad!

    These are very exciting times then, Povetkin being only 4 fights away from being the greatest 31-1 HW fighter of all time.

    Mongoose this applies to any prospect, I encourage them to fight more often...Lots of prospects can be great if they face big competition and fight more often :boxer

    Not good to put down anybody, let them try to do what Holyfield did :boxer

    I think they were very good wins but I wouldn't put much stock into this formula.

    How long did Wlad take to have 31 fights? 2.5 years? How long did Wilder take? A full 5 years and he is yet to fight anyone with a pulse.

    Someone needs to add Nico Valuev who was an impressive 31-0 also.
