    Because Wilder did not fight good fighters when he had the title.

    After Klitschko and before Usyk the best 5 were in order:

    1) Fury
    2) Ruiz
    3) Joshua
    4) Wilder
    5) Parker

    imo.

    All trolling aside, the top 3 between the two Ukrainians are irrefutably AJ, Wilder and Fury.

    Povetkin has a better career resume than Wilder.
    Parker has a better resume than Wilder.

    But this is the first time in 9 years you'd definitely place Wilder outside the top 4 of the division.
