    How could it not have plummeted? About 2/3 of the boxing community thinks he got his ass beat by a guy who who had to lose 130 pounds and kick a coke habit. The mysterious nature of the verdict seems to confirm what a lot of us have been saying all along: the fix is in for a fighter that someone (for some reason) thinks can be a cash cow.

    Wilder is now clearly the #3 at best, probably number 6 or 7, cooked judges be damned.

    his stock wasnt that high to begin with. check out youtube, how many 'LOL' threads/videos there are about wilder's punching form (or lack of). quite unskilled for a guy as high up as he is. some guys are considered 'punchers, not boxers'. wilder is the rung below that. like...'toughman competition skills, not a puncher' or something.

    Probably stayed the same? I mean, most people didn't rate him highly anyway, some will be surprised he managed to drop Fury and/or go the distance.

    Fury's has obviously gone up.

    Down, and it will go lower if he faces Joshua.

    Well it's really about popularity so? Yes we all know he lost the fight, at least im putting it in my correct predictions. Other then that his stock can only grow because he didn't have much to begin with...lol

    only his groupies rated him, this performance just confirmed what the rest of us already knew.

    He has dropped to number 3 and Tyson Fury has risen to number 2.

    Now we need to see Tyson Fury vs AJ for the number 1 spot

    Down. His enablers are having a hard time defending this fight and considering he was viewed as the number 2 heavy in the world and now should really be viewed lower his stock has dropped.
