    Nothing about beating pianeta, lepai, mormeck, brock, ancient Rahman, cuddling POV, failing to make a statement against Haye and boring us to tears against whoever else does it for me.

    his loss to sanders makes wilders to fury look like nothing.
    People will remember wlad for his losses and mediocre defences

    Some of these people are the ones who Fury fought when they were 10 years older.
    Wlad's resume is way better then Fury's
    No comparison.
    He did fight some scrubs, but fought a lot of champs and top 10 fighters as well unlike Fury.

    if you put wilder against every opponent wlad fought they would come out with similar records I think.

    4/5 ko losses, decision or two and a lot of wins by ko

    Not even close.
    Brewster Wilder TKO5
    Wilder won't be able to deal with relentless pressure and power
    Look at Golota fight
    He also beat Wlad in first after taking bombs.
    Peter Wilder KO 5
    Iron chin, power with some skills vs glass jaw with no skills.
    Peter dropped prime Wlad 3 times
    Haye Wilder KO 10
    Ibragimov Wilder Ibragimov KO or UD
    Chagaev UD
    Povetkin KO 5
    Wilder can't fight and can't punch while going back
    Byrd Wilder Byrd UD after making Wilder look stupid
    Old Rahman Wilder 50 50 fight
    Thompson Wilder Tompson UD
    Good boxer with good chin takes him to school
    Mcline Wilder Wilder KO
    Old Mercer Wilder 50 50 fight
    Sanders Wilder Sanders by highlight reel KO
    The rest Wilder can defeat, but struggles
    However, Wilder would duck most of these fighters and fight his regulars like Shpilka.
    Could also lose to Chambers or Pulev.

    thats just guess work.


    Old Rahman, come on man, did you watch that fight. Even Lennox was appalled Rahman was allowed to fight in that condition.

    old mercer come on.

    thompson might make him work but he would get caught, price nearly had him gone twice.

    Im not saying wilder wouldn’t lose, but the records would be incredibly similar

    Price fought a 40 something Thompson.
    I think he was 42-44 when they fought.
    I don't think their record would look similar at all.
    Wilder ducks most of them anyway.
    And guess work is what you say about Fury, who only beat a 40 year old and no skill Wilder, but you assume he is a complete package. There's no proof to that at this point.

    you just pretty much agreed with me in your previous post. 5 or so losses.

    he waxes people wlad loses to and loses to people wlad beat. Would be very very similar.

    I mean after 27 fights and Olympic gold wlad was still fighting men with losing records also.

    No, I didnt agree with you. I have Wilder losing to most of the top fighters Wlad fought.
    You either didn't read my post or you see what you want to see.

    Same Shpilka who got KOed by Chisora in 2.
