    Okay, Foreman wasn't fighting at that point.

    What about the others I mentioned?

    Wilder has struggled with C class fighters, and only his huge power has bailed him out.

    Yes, his power is special. But nothing else is.

    Lots of HW's were better than what he is.

    It doesn't mean that Wilder could have replicated Evander's performance.

    Go and watch the Ruddock fights and then come back and tell me that Wilder would have been favoured.

    Based on what?

    Nothing.

    Let's have a reality check.

    It took him 11 rounds to dispatch Duhaupas.

    Your opinion on how entertaining the fights were is completely irrelevant.

    Wilder has done nothing to have been favoured over Vitali.

    Better question is which boxers were better at 50 than Ortiz is now.

    I dunno if Wilder hit harder than Morrison. I bet they are close.
    Considering the competition, Wilder weakening or KOing some with illegal blows & rabbit punches, but with speed & range landing more unexpected shots...
    There is no indication who hits harder in absolute force.
