    Wilder is the only fighter in boxing history to reach 31-0 (KO 31) doing it vs better competition than Wlad (who failed to reach 31-0) or Foreman

    Boxrec Rates Wilder 8th.
    IBO pre Scott rates him 11th.
    Those are very in depth computer rankings, and many would say even they leave a lot to be desired in terms of absolute accuracy.

    How is that relevant, we have a thread exposing guys who feasted on chronic losers in the bottom vs guys who faced the best on top

    If you complain, you are more than likely on the sour grapes juice diet, a favorite of those who never reached 31-0-0 :|

    If not then you are on the Tomatoe paste diet & don't want the list to expose someone special who is knees deep in Tomatoe paste :oops:

    If it makes you feel better...There is nothing you can do about it, just lay down and try to enjoy it...I will try my best to be as pleasant as possible

    Surely you don't believe a fighters record shows exactly how good they are. (opponents)

    If you suck at counting, the list shows that Wilder KTFO 31, stayed undefeated facing better competition than Wlad or Foreman...If that fact irritates you, you just have to deal with it :deal

    It's interesting that, among modern boxers, Ali and Leonard each led their respective weight classes in comp win/loss percentages, and by a wide margin, at least for the early part of their careers, and both had Angelo Dundee as their matchmaker.

    Then all 15-0 opponents are equal. Check.
    All 20-5 opponents are equal. Check.
    All 15-30 opponents are equal. Check
    Also in every single case a 15-0 opponent will be better than a 20-4 opponent. Check.
    Derek Chisora is not as Good as Damon McCreary. Check!
    Woo! I figured it out!:shock:
