    I am Wilder's biggest detractor and even I say he would have beaten Grant, who was just a converted footballer.

    And Golota is, what? Who was the bigtime fighter that Golota beat?

    Wilder has been elevated to God like status since losing to fury...

    Wilder would kill Grant, Grant had heart and skills, size but.after the Lewis loss he never recovered. His confidence level, really lowered. Having Teddy Atlas screaming at him while Domick Guinn was knocking the $hit out of him didn't help.

    Grant's biggest problem was that he kept a low left hand and could get drilled with right hands by anyone with reach. That's your answer.

    Grant is tailor made for Wilder and I’m a big Wilder detractor.

    Grant VERY craftily walked Lennox into what should've been a controversial DQ loss. Wilder could never do something like that. He would just get knocked out the legit way.

    Golota was brilliant.

    That being said, Grant winning against anxiety-ridden, crestfallen Andrew by merit of having stupid endurance and durability doesn't mean he can replicate it against Wilder.

    But to be fair Golota did beat the snot out of Riddick Bowe twice who was considered the number 1 Heavyweight at that time.

    Yeah Bowe was a bit past it and they wern't official wins for Golota, but realistically Golota didn't lose those fights because of Bowe and Golota was clearly the dominant fighter in both encounters.

    Golota also deserved to be champion vs Byrd and Ruiz but didn't get a fair shake from the judges.

    DQs are losses. There is nothing else to be said about that. He blew it.

    I’d favor wilder. Might be some good action while it lasts though
