    Also Felix Trinidad and Thomas Hearns had pretty low KO % in the amateurs

    I don’t disagree, nonetheless, headgear is generally going to mean less headshot ko’s

    This. Wilder like Foreman got the bulk of his boxing experience as a professional.

    1) I never Wilder didn't KO everyone on it.
    2) Ortiz is about as past it as Mercer was, he just hasn't been in as many wars. Mercer had a better chin
    3) Wilder's résumé is much, much worse

    Ortiz is ****. He loses to Chageav and Chambers. And he loses to about 5 guys who Wlad beat and didn't KO. He loses to Pulev as well

    You either don't know anything about boxing or worship Wlad Klitschko if you think that's true.

    Wilders power is about the only thing he has proven in his pro career thus far. At least give him that.

    Pulev and Peter would be target practice. If it's the version Wilder got, Haye and Povetkin might beat him. Iggy and Byrd would drop decisions...Ortiz doesn't lose many rounds.

    Regardless of your personal opinion, Ortiz is one of two dangerous southpaw heavyweights to have existed. The other one demolished Wlad Klitschko.

    That's fair, I don't agree with it but I don't have to and can see how you've got there, so cool. But to your other point I'd say Byrd and Moorer were both tricky opponents (so in a way dangerous) Byrd has a win over Vitali Klitschko and Moorer over Evander Holyfield
