    If you are using a fight Wlad had at age 39 as evidence of anything by that same logic wouldn't we have to count Wilders losses to Zhang and Parker as proof they would always beat him? We can't pick and choose when to count past prime performance can we

    We wouldn’t, because Wlad was on pfp lists and undisputed, whereas Wilder was beltless and accepted to be slipping already, especially against Zhang.

    Two guys with quick, crappy reigns and one guy with no reign at all.

    Wilder might not even be greater than Bowe if you leave out the Holyfield fights lmao

    Wilder has like 3 ranked wins and they all suck. The only elite guys he ever faced were at the end of his career because he avoided everything relevant in the division for years and he lost to all of them.

    I’ve upset you yet again with cold logic. It would be easier on you to simply stay off the forum and not have your feel good logic disturbed.

    Sure buddy, keep believing Wilder's legacy on the same level as a guy who beat Holyfield twice lmao.

    also, is your definition of 'cold logic' is just two lines with absolutely no context? And not even mentioning Wilder himself?
