    Okay let's go through the resume and see all the guys that could have potentially knocked Wilder out and blemished he's flawless unbeaten 40-0 record:

    Ortiz (no suprises here)
    Stiverne (Power puncher/experience)
    Gerald W (Similar dimensions/ athletic)
    Chris Arreola (experience)
    Artur Szpilka ( experience/ power)
    Molina (since he nearly did ko Wilder)
    Malik Scott (notable sparring guy in boxing, can deliver a punch when needed)
    Johann Duhaupas (Experience/ ranked)

    I omitted Audley Harrison because he is big and experienced but so pathetic I can't force myself to put him on this list, he just disgusts me as a British native.


    So there's 8 guys who could have legitly stopped Wilder at some point, and the other 32 had a punchers chance.

    :lol:

    As far as I'm concerned Wilder, Joshua, and Fury, have earned HOF much much more than some of the ****s already in there.

    As long as Jem Ward is a HOF'er take yer ****in' pick and justify it however you like.

    HOF can eat ****.

    So out of those 8 guys, 7 of which are pretty terrible and the other being a pensioner all nearly had Wilder out of there. Well if Wilder finally finds his balls and signs to fight AJ or Fury there will a body on the record. His own.

    You are indeed a casual fan! ..Is the only thing I can reply with to your comment...

    I prefer to discuss the RELATIVE quality of the CURRENT era than to cry, and moan about how everyone is low quality and a bum ..and how there's only 4 guys that are worth talking about because there is no top 5 yadda yadda.

    AJ-Wilder is a good fight, Wilder can drop AJ easily... EASILY...

    outside of AJ who else can beat Deontay? Yeah that's what I thought.

    Usyk will give wilder a tough fight. Tyson fury could beat him. That is probably about it.

    Well I have no idea what you have based your logic on, 2 years is long time for ring rust in Tyson Fury's situation, and you favour him going against the top 2 guy in the division?

    Ask ANY boxer in the world... they will tell you how much a 2 year absence destroys your performance in the professional game.

    As for Usyk..? No one denies his ability, but he is unproven in heavyweight division... just because he has sparred/fought one or two heavies doesn't make him a legit contender in the weight class.

    Heavyweight is a different ball game, 220 pound Usyk aint the same as a 220 pound Wilder. Wilder is big a rangy and very explosive so he can hang with the big boys.

    But we will see...

    He's a paper titlist in a terrible division who has 2 wins against top 10 ranked opponents.

    At this pace, he'd need to be 70-0.

    I said that fury could beat wilder not would. Usyk is unproven at heavyweight but it is a fight that isn't beyond what usyk can achieve.
