    Don't forget to vote. Multiple votes will be allowed.

    I am going to do Wlad's best wins. Someone may have a dark horse that they want to throw in--a Ray Austin, Eddie Chambers, or Calvin Brock, but I think, considering that Mercer and Brewster were well done by the time he got to them, the best are:

    Byrd I
    McCline (I will stick by this)
    Thompson
    Peter
    Ibragimov
    Chagaev
    Haye
    Povetkin
    Pulev

    No Wilder hate on this one. I am just curious what people think and am not even going to throw in my vote.

    Thanks.

    There is not a single fighter you listed that wouldn’t get there heads absolutely decapitated before the final bell rang. Wlad fought the worst of the worst.

    I guess you did not see in the opening post when I clarified that I was asking about Wlad's best WINS.

    It pays to read and not be too sarcastic up front. But thanks for contributing and your opinion is respected.

    Yeah if you gave them a handicap like a sledgehammer or a hunting rifle. None of those guys beat Wilder under Queensbury rules.

    Wilder beats some of them and likely loses to others. Let's be objective and realistic. No fanboys or haters needed.

    Most of them are very capable of beating him. Being capable of winning and actually winning are different things, of course, but If we're talking the best versions of these fighters, then I'd probably pick Byrd 1 from 2000, Chagaev from 2007-09 if he boxes like he did against Valuev and Povetkin in Russia to likely beat Wilder imo.

    Thompson at his beat is 50-50, Haye at his best more or less the same, Peter in 2005 was unbeaten and strong, but a little slow and unpolished. Wilder struggles in these. He might get the KO/TKO wins in the end or maybe not, but I think these are solid tests for him.
    Wilder isn't really that skilled an overall boxer and his chin and balance isn't that great, but he's tall with long arms, has some heart and is a dangerous puncher. (Fury in the rematch pushed him back, outmuscled him, showed him little respect, was first to the punch and didn't allow him time to set. He then punched the **** out of him.)

    I'd pick Wilder to likely beat the versions of McCline, Ibragimov (who boxed timidly vs Wlad) and Pulev that WK beat (and the second version of Byrd from 2006 that Wlad stopped.)

    Realistically he’s a favourite over all of them, most likely KO’s the lot. Fury is just on another level to this bunch.

    Loses to

    Iggy
    Byrd
    Chagaev
    Haye
    Peter
    Pulev

    Might beat

    McCline
    Thompson

    On his absolute best day that is and assuming they're all past 35 y/o like the only 2 world class fighters he's beaten were. Call it 1 out of 9
