    Not aged well this? Wallin would lose to Ruiz, Povetkin, Wlad, Parker, and maybe Whyte. You have got another prediction horrendously wrong.

    I stick with my original call that Wallin was AJ's 7th best opponent after Wlad, Povetkin, Whyte, Parker, Ruiz and Pulev.

    I didn’t particularly rate Wallin as I saw the Sokowlowski fight, but Fury fans have been hyping him up so presumably they were really impressed by Joshua.

    Merry Xmas and I hope you are pleased to get this out of your system.

    Joe Parker has been defeated by three British level fighters Joyce, Joshua and should be red faced with a loss to Dillian Whyte if you needed any confirmation about his ability. Hughie 'The Skirt' Fury was not much worse against Parker and he is very poor.

    Zero elite traits in any of the 4 British Fighters above with the exception of a Joyce chin until smashed by Zhang.

    Context is a word rarely understood - Wilder is an old man at 38 having fought 1 round since Fury 3 against a prime Xmas Pudding Helenius.

    Yes Wilder virtually retired himself and looked 10 times worse against Parker than Ricky Hatton on his comeback against Senchenko or Scott Harrison against Liam Walsh, who both would have wiped the floor with these opponents in their prime.

    Parker has always been and will always be around British Level Heavyweight level who like Joshua is a Vacant Belt pilferer.

    I would add that Tony Bellew v Wilder next would be a 50/50 fight for me as Wilder is Toe Haye territory now.

    Appalling Wallin was no better than Hector Avilla or Dr Matt Legg from Eastenders.

    Wallin's only decent win at heavyweight was Gassiev who has just made the leap from Cruiserweight.

    Somehow managing to land a punch on Fury, resulting in a cut, made people view him as Prime Iron Mike Tyson when he really is worse than Charles Martin.

    Wallin looks on a par with prime Dave Allen.

    Parker is a legit proven World level HW and unlike Wilder has beaten World level boxer unlike Wilder who's never beaten one before.

    Parker and Whyte both have superior records to Wilder, it's not even close.

    Parker and Whyte are very poor opponents for any decent Heavyweight.

    Their proven world level HWs with better records than Wilder.

    What does that make Wilder?

    Apart from Ruiz, where are Parker's wins against World Level Opponents?

    People on here claim Joe Joyce is shyte and he obliterated Parker, absolutely obliterated him.

    Fury v Whyte at Wembley says it all about Whyte - British level and that is being generous.

    Ruiz is better than anyone Wilder ever beat.
    Takam is in par with Ortiz.
    I'd back Hughie to beat everyone Wilder ever beat apart from Ortiz.

    The question to you Mitch was simple - apart from Ruiz, where are Parker's wins against World Level Opponents?

    He's beaten Ruiz and Wilder that makes 2 wins against world level opponents.

    Wilder although I class as world level, is yet throughout his career to beat someone of that level.

    How can you consider Wilder in such high regard? Yet think such little of two guys who have better record than Wilder, one of which just beat Wilder and won every round.

    Takam to me is one of those fighters who is a good test prior to stepping up to challenge for World Titles and will find out any chancers like he nearly did with Joshua.

    The sad thing is that Takam is a great fighter when Joshua scrapes past him but on here he is a glorified journeyman when either Joyce or Bakole stops him.

    Hold on you have banged on about Wilder not being World Level for years then you suddenly state he is a World Level Fighter.

    Have you consumed a few today?
