    Take your "Charles Martin would beat Wilders ass" outta here you Joshua **** gobbling alt. Y'all keep saying he never beat a top 10 heavy and can't find a list that lists the top 10 heavies lol.

    Cant find an archived list of Heavyweights on the WBC's website: http://wbcboxing.com/wbceng/ratings but the IBF: http://www.ibfusbaregistration.com/ibfusba_02APR2014/index.php/ratings/ibf-ratings?view=rankings WBA: http://www.wbaboxing.com/wba-ranking and WBO: http://www.wboboxing.com/ all allow you to search their rankings by year and month to find the relevant fighters. The Ring annual rankings can be found on Boxrec: http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/The_Ring_Magazine's_Annual_Ratings

    At a cursory glance through the archived rankings it would appear that the one top 10 Heavyweight Wilder has fought and beat is Stiverne.

    I don't know why people compare fighters in terms of "18th professional fight," "25th professional fight," etc.

    When Wilder first turned pro he was often fighting once or twice a month. Yeah, he was fighting shitty opponents, but that's normal for your early couple years.

    It's true though. Wilder did start particularly slow. Especially for an Olympic medalist.

    If Joshua and Hearn are ducking why is Wilder the one demanding "50/50 split" and for the fight to be in "the home of boxing"?

    It would also be wise for Americans to stop knocking Hearn, he's the only guy out there at the minute who looks capable of reviving the US market.

    Joshua has three titles, Wilder had one that he didn't even earn! Sconiers knocked Wilder down and so did Nichols! Joshua will knock Wilder out! Wilder is a total fraud, has never fought a legit fighter period!

    3 and a half years into his career, Joshua faced wlad in a unification bout.

    3 and a half years into his career wilder faced Jesse oltsmann, i think he was a wino from the alley

    Assuming you're addressing the comment about Stiverne being the only top ten fighter Wilder had fought; I said "at a cursory glance", which meant I hadn't looked in detail. I'll do so this morning for your benefit. I have not included the WBC rankings because I cant find the archived rankings:

    Bermaine Stiverne - January 2015
    • 6th ranked Heavyweight by the Ring Annual
    • not ranked by the IBF because he was WBC Champion
    • not ranked by the WBA because he was WBC Champion
    • not ranked by the WBO because he was WBC Champion
    Eric Molina - June 2015
    • not ranked in top 10 by the Ring Annual
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBO
    Johan Duhaupas - September 2015
    • not ranked in top 10 by the Ring Annual
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBO
    Artur Szpilka - January 2016
    • not ranked in top 10 by the Ring Annual
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • 12th ranked Heavyweight by the WBO
    Chris Arreola - July 2016
    • not ranked in top 10 by the Ring Annual
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBO
    Gerald Washington - February 2017
    • Ring Annual not yet available
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBO
    Bermain Stiverne - November 2017
    • Ring Annual not yet available
    • not ranked in top 15 by the IBF
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBA
    • not ranked in top 15 by the WBO

    (They might have all been top 10 ranked by the WBC but I cannot verify that.)

    Cleary not the same and you completly miss the point. Hearn isn't really talking about the opponent at 19 fights his talking about the difference in drawing power. If Wilder after 39 fights was selling mil ppv's and filling arenas no comparisons would need to be made. The reality however is he isn't.

    Mike Tyson was the biggest draw in the sport!!!
