    WIlder has 40something Ortiz and the Canadian near 40 year old Stiverne, plus some nobodies.

    Ruiz has prime AJ and shot Kevin Johnson , amongst other shot guys.

    Who has the best wins?

    Ruiz. Beating unified heavyweight champ in the manor he did makes Wilders wins over Ortiz and Stiverne look like idiots.

    yeah I have to agree.

    This means Ruiz is the best American HW on paper. Wilder is number 2 American.

    The question is, can Wilder regain his number 1 American HW status before he continues his climb to becoming world number 1?

    Maybe on paper, I’m holding judgement on who the best US HW actually is for now. Ruiz looked great but I’m holding fire until after the rematch.

    Beating a unified champ or a 50 year old with heart problems?
