    Gatekeeper Chisora, dangerous, he was dangerous with a record of 36-14-0 xD had no chance against featherfist Usyk, lucky he didn't fight animals like Briedis, Gasiev or Opetaia, as it would be Briedis vs Charr 2.0...

    Resume Chisora, but actual wins Wilder. How can you be good at boxing if you lose important fights one after another?

    Wilder would definitely have at least half a dozen more losses on his record if he fought anywhere near the calibre of opponents that Chisora has. As many people here have said, Wilder was the only American heavyweight close to the top level; they had to protect this and the belt. His run of defences is farcical and is up there with any of the "Eurobums" who never left their hometown. As soon as Wilder fought anyone remotely elite, it was Fury coming off a 3-year cocaine binge, and he got a gift decision, then got completely steamrolled in the rematch.

    If we're talking legacy, though, Wilder held and defended the WBC belt; that is legacy, and that puts him ahead of Chisora. Chisora would probably have beaten many of the names Wilder did, too, but the game and the measurement of legacy are about marketing and image as much as they are about resume and valour, for some reason.
