According to 80% of this board, just about every fighter in history would be a bad matchup for Wilder. And some non fighters as well. Give the man a chance for God's sake. I mean I know you guys want to see Klitschko and Povetkin dominate until they are 80 but damn. Give it a rest.
Prime Sam Peter was a hell of a fighter, probably in the top10 of the last decade. Nothing wrong with picking him over Wilder.
Peter was like a rhino. Big, slow until roused, immensely powerful and good at going in one direction (straight at his opponent). He was never meant to be taught boxing strategy - he just needed to SMASH. Then he got a coach that thought it a good idea to teach him how to box, thus overwriting a simple dominant purpose and introducing confusion into Sam's limited brain. That was ultimately his undoing. Prime Peter would mow Wilder down and most likely do it in a highlight reel fashion.
Top 10 of one of the weakest decades in boxing history the 2000's. He's decent, but that still doesn't mean he's a lock to murder Wilder. He never had Wilder's height, reach, or speed. HE was easy to hit as well. I see no reason he'd be a lock to beat Wilder. He actually was similar to Stiverne physically.
