I don't think Wilders resume is really any better than someone like Pulevs to be honest. Wilder vs Pulev might be an interesting debate
Vitali beat 5 guys you could reasonably argue were top 10 heavyweight while Wilder beat 2 so I would give him the edge
Charr likely isn't a top 25 heavyweight I can't imagine any reason for Fury to fight him.
What's to stop them from knocking Wilder out first? The big hitters like Lewis, Tyson, etc could potentially take him out early. And plenty of...
I think Sharkey was clearly prime in 1928 and 1929. In addition to Kovalev, I would classify Callum Smith and Caleb Plant as reasonably...

Sanders is likely 6'2 1/2-6'3. A lot of heavyweights heights from that era are exaggerated. But I doubt Sanders is naturally much bigger than...
Sharkey was under 200 pounds generally for his best performances and even when older and past his prime still generally came into the ring under...
A lot of Vitali's best wins at heavyweight are over guys who really are no bigger than cruiserweights of Usyk's era in terms of muscle mass. I...
Many of Sharkey's heavyweight opponents were no bigger than todays rehydrated light heavyweights so I think in terms of Caneo's era it makes more...
I think there are guys at 160 and 168 who enter the ring in the 180s. So some of the guys Alvarez beat at lower weights were likely heavyweights...
thought this might be a good matchup
Ali was shot and lost to Leon Spinks in his very next fight. How is that supposed to be impressive on Shavers part? Beterbiev might well beat...
Holmes did destroy Shavers beating him twice, and winning virtually every round. By todays standards Shavers is in fact a small-medium sized...
