    ATG?, Straight after 2 losses and a robbery that Dick Turpin would frown upon

    Wow, how the bar has been lowered.

    no. 3 losses or no wins in those fights, or against hall of fame fighters cannot make him an ATG

    Yes.

    Fury > Wilder > Usyk > AJ

    Even Fury thinks Wilder is #2.

    I'd be very surprised if you somehow became an ATG from an uncontroversial knockout loss.

    Leon Spinks is greater than Wilder.

    Wilder only good win on his resume is Bermane Stiverne 1. Ortiz is another Can gatherer.

    He'll possibly be remembered as a huge puncher, maybe the hardest hitting of all time but he's not a great.

    For me he belongs in that list of Legendary Punchers Foreman, Shavers, Mike Tyson, etc.

    There are many fighters with better resumes and quite a few that could beat him H2H.

    But because of his insane power and fighting spirit he would be dangerous to any fighter from History. He would always have chance against anybody.

    I detect trolling.

    He took massive punishment from Fury and went out on his shield. Respect for that.

    But, he is no where near ATG status. That is simply insulting.
