Overrated if he is being ranked top 10, but I don't know if that is a consensus these days. I would rate him similarly to Mike Tyson
The vast majority of his title challengers were journeyman/gatekeeper types though. I feel he should get credit for beating world class...
The biggest issue with Wilder is how terrible his resume is not losing to Fury. Objectively those losses are not that bad. However his resume is...
Head to head doesn't really equate to pound for pound ability. The light heavyweight version of Hearns might beat the welterweight version in an...
Usyk was consistently fighting the best at cruiserweight. That's probably a harder task than fighting journeyman at heavyweight. At heavyweight...

It doesn't take a genius though to see that Frazier's aggressive come forward style and propensity to take a lot of punishment might not bode well...
Delahoya and Pacquiao were fighting in different weight classes than Mayweather during their primes so a prime vs prime matchup wasn't really...
Fighting Frazier is hardly a ridiculous fantasy as Liston himself felt Frazier was stylistically perfect for him. He probably wanted a shot at...
Fighting Cotto, Corrales, Marquez, Alvarez, etc isn't cherrypicking. When he moved up he took on and beat the reigning champions. Where is all...
Clark was good enough to beat Leotis Martin.
Floyd largely fought the best available. If he's missing prime ATGs it's not due to ducking rather them not being available. This argument just...

That's based on complete guesswork though. Fact is he was never lineal and never the consensus number one heavyweight. Moorer on the other hand...
Wilder has fought very very few world class opponents. He is nowhere near dominating his own era. And how is he unskilled relative to someone...
