    The fact that almost everyone picked him to lose is enough proof that Stiverne was no joke when compared to Wilder leading up to this fight. It's easy to say otherwise now, especially for idiots.

    No, a lot of people picked Stiverne not because he's any good, but because he was tought to be a live body (but he showed up as an ashtmatic zombie), and because obese middleweights and cruiserweight with antishock gloves were able to put Wilder down.

    Wilder is still untested. His refusal of 10 millions :admin to fight Povetkin, his statement that he wants no part of Wladimir this year, confirms so. He won't even fight Tyson Fury, smh.

    Stiverne was a top 10 fighter, it is now reasonable to have Wilder in the HW top 10 possibly as high as about 5th due to how easily he dealt with Stiverne.

    He has passed another test and we are yet to see how far he can take it.
