Deontay Wilder all time heavyweight ranking were does he stand?

I believe Bowe has one win over a Ring-ranked top-five opponent in his career.

Because Holyfield wasn't ranked in the Ring top 10 when Bowe won the third fight.

Golota may have been #5 when he was disqualified in the rematch with Bowe. Otherwise, I think that's it.

It's really fascinating how few wins these guys have when you apply the same standard of measure (the ALMIGHTY Ring top 5 opponents) to them as people do to DEONTAY WILDER.

I sure hope all these top 100 ratings reflect use the same criteria for everyone.

 

He stands at the bottom, on his knees, begging for inclusion.

 

Looks like Ken Norton cracked three wins over Ring Top-five ranked opponents.

(Thanks to Duane Bobick and his top five Ring rating.)

 

When Bowe got to throwing down he never had the form of a beginning boxer, atleast he could throw a punch straight. Wilder looked like a young amateur whenever things got heated.

Byrd would have him tied up in knots.

The fact that Wilder even won a title just goes to show how that current crop of Heavyweights was a dismal pool of talent.

 

Liston and Wilder both had careers that culminated in crossing paths with a heavyweight who was near the top ever h2h. Liston embarrassed himself twice whereas Wilder got a draw in one of the fights and almost knocked the other guy out in 2 of 3 fights. And I also think Luis Ortiz would sweep Liston's opponents fairly easily until running into Ali.

 

It's clear that Wilder does something to your feelings. And Bowe looped his right hand anyway.

 

There's little suggest that Holyfield was better than Fury h2h.

 

There is no rule that beating a guy with a better resume is better than beating a guy who is better h2h. You invented that.

 

He certainly does.

Are you some how implying that the crop of Heavyweights that he came up in were some how superior, rather than inferior, to the crops of Heavyweights that came before him?

 

Fury is the only guy in history to outbox Wlad. He wasn’t worse than Holyfield.

 

Luis Ortiz was one of the best ever to not win a title.
