    I guess it depends on how you view it
    Good question
    Wilder was an undefeated world champ but Whyte arguably has a better resume

    Wilders best wins I would guess are
    Ortiz
    Ortiz
    Stiverne
    Washington



    Whytes I would guess are
    Parker
    Povetkin
    Rivas
    Browne

    I think Whyte should arguably be rated higher in that he imo has a greater resume but I think the Wilder win would be deemed greater due to Wilder being an undefeated champion

    In answer as I see it. Whyte I think has the better resume and would be rated higher but in terms of how I think the fight would be viewed think the Wilder win (this is based on the assumption that Fury beats Whyte) would be a bigger win due to the hype surrounding a big undefeated puncher and world champion

    I'd say Ortiz and Parker are the same level, and the other opposition aren't really worth considering.

    Furys win over Wlad was the best win in HW boxing since Lennox Lewis TKO'd Vitali in 2003.

    12 years between them wins

    Its been 7 years since Fury beat Wlad

    Wilder sparks Whyte, he would just come lumbering forward and Wilder would put one of those right hands through him.

    Wilder is the better win.
    Although Whyte's resume is better on paper, there are a few too many asterisks on them.
    The Parker win shouldn't have been a win, due to the headbutt KD and Parker not getting recovery time. The Rivas win should have been a NC due to him being on a prohibited substance. And then we had the 1-1 split against Povetkin, with the win being against the worst version ever.
    Maybe Whyte actually beats Wilder, but we will never find out probably

    Such a cheap remark. All top level boxers are on the sos. Look at Rivas ffs.

    Wilder is the better win. Wilder would decapitate Whyte and Joshua.

    Joshua sleeps Wilder badly. If eric molina rocked Wilder and Fury had him constantly rocked, AJ by viscious out cold ko

    Joshua has been rocked countless times and he has lost to a previously thought non-puncher in 5'11'' obese man Andy Rice Pudding Jr.

    Wilder showed that he is incredibly tough. He would embarrass Joshua - sorry.

    Wilder is the better win imo. Similar resume to Whytes but without the losses. It will also depend on how Whyte does against Fury as Wilder had his moments in 2 of the fights and I'm expecting Whyte to look lost in there.

    I don't believe that, and basically it's already been proven to be a false statement due to some top boxers starting to use late in their careers and becoming better and stonger afterwards.

    But even if... Whyte got busted, which means his win should have been scrapped from the record books. I don't care if Rivas went full Holyfield and somehow slipped through, he wasn't caught, Whyte was.
    And the argument of "he didn't know he took it" doesn't hold any water either, because it was in his system so he was doped up.
    Same thing goes for the Fury/Hammer situation and Teper/Price. All HW wins that should have been NC's.

    Is Wilder a fast combination puncher? No, hes a plodding stiff bum with no boxing ability, he'll be looking for 1 shot, AJ by KO. Out cold dont care about heart

    If Fury beats Whyte, which he should, I would consider Wilder the better win. Fury's best win would still be Wladimir Klitschko, IMHO.
