Sure he could. Look who Walcott lost to. He managed to lose to Rex Layne who clearly is nowhere near Beterbievs level Louis didn't beat Charles...
Why is any evidence required given Baers abilities? This isn't a skilled big man like Lewis
He did a far better job of facing his contemporaries than Fury. That's not up for argument Guys from his era like Chisora and Fury fought well...
The big hitters of Sharkey's day were the size of today's light heavyweights and cruiserweights For whatever reason the big men failed to...
That's complete nonsense. You prove yourself the best by beating the best which he didn't do post Wlad. I can just as easily argue Kabayel was...

If you look at the ratings of guys who campaigned exclusively at heavyweight I think you will find them more accurate. Okolies high rating is due...
Boxrec is flawed in terms of rating people who moved up in weight but much better in terms of people who campaigned in the same division their...
You don't have to fight at heavyweight to be reasonably favored over certain heavyweights. His performance against Usyk was better than the...
Doesn't mean the rating was accurate. Why can't you accept that ratings are sometimes not accurate. I'm allowed to disagree with other people's...

It doesn't mean they were correct in their rating. I don't have him top 3 for that period Maybe not even top 5
People subjectively thinking he was top 3 does not make it so. He could have proved it by beating Povetkin or Parker but he didn't
Sure it's open to question. Wilder doesn't have the wins to lock himself in the top 3
AJs resume is similar to guys like Tua and Ruiz Ruiz has wins over Holyfield, Johnson, Rahman, Oquendo and Golota which seems similar to Joshua...
