    It’s actually the opposite. You trolled by saying Wilder. Tell me who the top ten all time h2h guy in the division is who Donnie Nieties drew with and dropped multiple times.

    All this **** is badass btw.

    edit also the ~5 years of undefeated IBF holding Bute ultimately ended up being pretty bad considering how it all unraveled and the dreadful Andrade long count situation.

    People have said Joe Louis and Mayweather BTW.

    In comparison Wilder isn't as controversial as Wilder's resume is commonly criticized.

    If it were heavyweight specific, he’d be fair game. If it’s all of boxing, there are worse.

    You're getting worse :lol:

    Wilder is a standout pick. YDKSAB but at this point the entire forum knows this. You are also a bottom feeder troll who loves to be the modernistic agitator.

    Wilder flittered around beating barely anyone worth a mention before running into a very good fighter who put him in his place three times. Dropping someone doesn't win fights and despite all these KD's he still lost every time out. Anyone with half a brain and not related (not you obviously) knows Fury beat him comfortably first time out and was robbed.

    Back in your box, there are much classier and worthwhile posters for me to interact with vs the village idiot.

    I've assessed that it was upsetting to you that Wilder drew with Fury. Fury was not given standard treatment by the ref for being knocked unconscious and left with a draw, which is the only instance of a challenger being knocked down in separate rounds and failing to knockdown the champion, but somehow not losing. The tail end of Wilder's reign was very impressive between the Ortiz wins, ko of Breazeale, and draw with Fury. Ortiz would beat guys like Norton and Patterson with ease.

    His style is simple. Outbox the opponent and knock them out.
