    Sure did. But judging from the rematch, its buster douglas all over again until he gets another top ten win.

    Parker's best win during his title was probably Takam or a young andy ruiz whose best win at the time was Liakhovich maybe? So his resume isn't even as good as Wilders. Ortiz is better than anyone on Parkers resume. I think Parker is arond #6-#10 in the heavy's but he needs to start facing some live bodies.

    I think that Fury's win over Wlad was such a high level win though that it immediately bolsters his resume, and if he beats Wilder, thats 2 inform champions. That alone is better than a Wlad with no titles and inactive, Povetkin with no titles and out of prime and Parker.

    Quality over quantity when it's the weak heavyweight division so Ortiz and fury equal all the weaklings Joshua beat and both fury and Ortiz would be favored against anybody Joshua has faced because contrary to what Joshua fan girls say he never fought the best or beat the best so if wilder does beat fury than he's easily the best or its fury

    And Ortiz best win is Jennings, who's best win is on par with Ruiz best win for the time of the Parker fight. But then Ruiz went on to win three of the major belts and Jennings retired. Jennings and a 40-6 Thompson are the best names on Ortiz resume.

    Lets do it as this, best wins on resumes:
    Klitschko (Fury), reigning world champion and former Olympic champion and ATG-material.
    Klitschko (AJ), former world and olympic champion and ATG-material.
    Povetkin (AJ), former world and olympic champion, only loss to Klitschko.
    Parker (AJ), current world champion.
    Ruiz (AJ), current world champion.

    If Wilder were to beat Fury or vice versa I'd place it on the third top spot on the list. Wilder for beating a former world champion, or Fury for beating a current.

    Then I'd put Whyte (AJ), Chisora (Fury) and Ortiz (Wilder) at the same level. Wins over untested contenders. Maybe I'd give Fury the nod because he beat Chisora twice.

    What is so bad here is that so many are taken in by an 0
    Arguably many believe Fury had already taken the 0 of Wilder but because the official decision was a draw instantly it degrades a fighters resume to the fans on here

    If we went by who many felt won it could be read if Fury wins again against Wilder, Fury would have a resume of wlad, wilder, wilder again, chisora twice, hammer, Cunningham
