    Officially Wilder has been beaten once, just once, people are talking like he has lost 5 on the spin and is 45 years old.


    Let's see how he looks when he comes back, AJ was battered by Ruiz Jr and QUIT, he came back and did well.


    Wilder has the power to clean out any Heavyweight on the planet, the power is real, he will always have a chance and if he has learnt from his humbling then he can come back and reign again.

    Fury developed the blueprint of how to beat Wilder.

    I don't think there's many that could pull it off.

    It's not even a certainty that Fury and pull it off again.

    People who could - everyone in top 30 COULD. We should not forget that almost anyone he fights outboxes him until he lands. So lots of dude COULD.

    Aside from AJ and Fury

    I would also back Hrgovic and Usyk to definitely beat Wilder, if they fought in July. No danger about that.

    So that is a total of 4.

    Some would say Andy Ruiz, but his punch resistance looks to be an issue now. So that one is 50/50 - as perhaps he cut the weight too quickly and needs to put a bit back on to improve his punch resistance.

    Yeah people thought that Ruiz found the blueprint to beat Joshua as well and favoured him to win the rematch.

    Joshua sort of reinvented himself for that 2nd Ruiz fight.

    I don't think Wilder can do that but you never know.

    Wilder still has a nuclear right and is always in shape. He's game.

    I don't think there are many guys out there with the attributes that would them to do to Wilder what Fury did in the 2nd fight.

    He looked awful and needs to sort his footwork out, no way could Fury have done to Usyk or several other top heavies, it was so one-sided, it was actually pathetic.

    Forgotten about? Anyone can build a resume of 40 KOing legit trash cans and old men.. He got to where he is doing that a frauding the casuals.

    He has not proved himself at all. He's athletic and has a right hand, and that has worked against cans. Absolute joke people are trying to give credit to the guy

    The only thing is Wilders only weapon is the right hand. That's all Ruiz would have to train for because Wilder is useless in every single aspect other than. I think Reynoso is talented enough of a coach to ingrain the movement required to avoid that one punch from Wilder. Granted Ruiz is hittable but Wilder only has one weapon. Id love to see Ruiz pummel that skinny legged fraud
