    Solid top 10

    Knocked out every man he ever faced

    Tried to fight all the best opponents even though some ducked and some failed PED tests.

    The hardest puncher ever

    Most feared since Tyson

    The Ortiz win is the best win of his generation imho a prime unbeaten skilled ferocious power puncher who the entire division avoided except Deontay.

    He's done everything you could ask of him and doesn't have dodgy losses on his record like most of the rest of the top 10.

    Around the level of Bruce Seldon. Ok fine, let's say Frank Bruno and that's insulting Bruno.

    Lol. Wilders placement is somewhere between Anthony Hembrick and Frank Bruno

    If Wilder retired they might as well shut down these forums. He's one of the most well liked boxers here and ESB would become a barren wasteland without his great accomplishments to speak about

    Possibly the 2nd best HW from Alabama ever. (Holyfield #1)
    Retired Audley Harrison.
    Participated in the most memorable draw of 2018.
    Maybe the best record of all time against HWs from the Caribbean who are approaching 40.

    Not a bad legacy at all.

    He would be somewhere in the top 50 ATG.... if he beats AJ, Fury, Usyk and gets to 50-0, and retires, he can be top 10 atg maybe
