    You mean Obama Bin Ladin?

    Was he a boxer? He wasn't an American.

    He was born in Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico and is listed on BoxRec as Mexican.

    And before anyone asks, Bermane Stiverne is listed as Canadian.

    From the UK looking in, would have to say no1 wilder needs to stepped up though
    No2 malik Scott but needs to learn how to count to ten
    No3 tiger Thomson, just because of his post fight interview after beating price,when asked what's next for Tony, his reply was going home to break his wife's hips, classic man, OK boxer to ,age against him.

    Many people are on the fence about Wilder and eager to see him tested.

    No one knows how good he is because he's not yet been in with any decent journeymen or fringe contenders.

    Malik Scott or Chris Arreola... That would be one helluva fight actually.

    Arreola, but i'm not enthused with that answer.

    Wilder, may be real, or just hype as many fear. Needs to step up and answer those questions.

    Will see this weekend if Jennings can take a step up.

    Sad state of Afairs when Thompson is the best HW.

    Id put Jennings, Cunningham, Wilder , Scott, Banks all before him.

    This Thursday, we'll have a chance to see some undefeated up-and-coming US heavyweights on Fox TV:

    Gerald Washington
    Dominic Breazeale

    and perhaps the Michael Hunter fight will also be televised.
