In his last 4 fights he’s fought in front of a live audience of around 350,000
He’s unified 3 (4) World Title belts less than 5 years after his pro debut
Is selling huge PPV Numbers across the globe

Wilder in 40 fights has fought just one live opponent however, even he is in his late 30s and on heart medication who’s drs wanted him to pull out of the fight on medical grounds just 24 hours before fight time.

Please, tell me who’s taking on all comers and who’s the con man holding a title hostage?

 

Wladimir is Wladimir.

Povetkin is the best non-Klitschko HW of the past 15 years and still the #3 when Joshua beat him.

Parker was definitely top 5 when Joshua beat him.

Whyte win ended up aging very well.

And then he has Takam, Breazeale, and Martin as decent supporting wins beyond that.

...I hate the guy but it is quite a resume.

 

Well it isn't exactly fair to count them as world title challengers and to use that credential as Joshua fought them to give them that credential.

But yes. Very good resume.

 

so he and his team are too stupid to hire the proper type of sparring partners?
