A 12yrs old will have less bias & ask for the Top 10 ATG HW list, then place Deontay Wilder where he thinks he belongs. The old generation nostalgic bias ruins the best unbiased minds, let alone folks who hate Deontay Wilder. This type of question is best asked when a boxer is no longer boxing, then we can do the math, as of now Deontay Wilder is somewhere between the GOAT & Single digit HW ATGs, depending on his career goes from. We already know that Wilder is ATG-bound, has the world records that distinguish him, what remains is the very hard part, can he defeat odds? can he beat the GOAT H2H Heavyweight Tyson Fury. Can he capture the fans imagination by another title defense KO streak, it all depends on Wilder career, he plans to fight 10~60 more fights depending on how soon he is acknowledged as the GOAT.
I had him as the Goat, but now he’s # 2 on my list , just behind Kevin McBride who has a win over Mike Tyson.
He couldn’t beat wallin and couldn’t do sheet to old shot wlad. AJ will prob beat that fat overrated clown.
Undefeated & Fights up to his competition...James Toney & even Marvin Hagler had this habit. Its not something they can control.
