    Hard to say. Neither Fury nor Ruiz are proven big punchers, but they've both stood up to decent punches before, so I'd say both have more or less average chins.

    WBC heavyweight champion. 10 successful title defenses. Knocked out everyone he fought as a pro, except for the current WORLD heavyweight champion who he is fighting again in October.

    Yes, why on earth would I be a fan?

    Some of you guys aren't the sharpest tools in the shed.

    I've seen a lot of fighters bashed when they were active and hailed as greats when they were retired.

    I remember arguing with dumbasses who insisted Tua was going to stop Lewis because Lewis had the worst chin of any heavyweight champion ... and I argued with them when they said no ATG had ever been stopped twice with one punch, therefore Lewis wasn't an ATG.

    I disagreed, and they called me every name in the book.

    Now, Lewis is considered one of the top heavyweights ever. And all the guys who argued with me changed their tune or people just quit listening to them ... like they won't be listening to any of you.

    Wilder has a better chin than Joshua. Anyone with a brain can see that.

    You'll figure it out. There's always a last person to cross the finish line.

    Hey, chill the eff out. I like DW. I just don't suck his schwantz like he's done some amazing things.
    Oh sure.... lay out the blanket accomplishments... that's fine. But all he'd done has come with possibly the worst HW resume in a long while for a guy who held titles as long as he did. He was essentially the HW version of Andre Berto.

    Wilder MIGHT have a better chin than AJ... but that jury is still out. AJ's people didn't stop him from fighting Wlad like Wilder's people did a while back. If you can't see that after Wilder's last fight, maybe you need to stop being the scarecrow...

    Wilder is never going to be remembered like Lewis man. You need to lay off the sauce.

    A one trick pony that avoided anyone with a pulse on the way up before beating an ill paper champion. He then went on of the worst runs of defences of any heavyweight titlist in history refusing to fight even the likes of Dillian ****ing Whyte. The biggest successes of his title run were the beating of a 40 year old never was in Ortiz in which he was saved in the 6th by NYC's bizarre rules and getting a robbery of a draw against a recovering Fury who then completely dismantled him in the rematch he came in actually looking like a man ready for a professional fight.

    Wilder's going down as a coddled hype job with a big right hand.

    And the last place finisher appears to be ... Sugar 88.

    "Coddled hype job" or the next lineal WORLD heavyweight champion, with 10 WBC Heavyweight Title defenses already under his belt, who may be able to claim (once again) that he's knocked out every man he fought as a pro (we'll find out in October).

    Seems to be a MASSIVE gulf you haven't crossed yet. You are really slow to recognize what's in front of you.

    Better catch up. October will be here quicker than you realize.

    And Wilder has a better chin than Joshua, which is what we're supposed to be talking about.

    This is really embarrassing Dub. Like at this point laughing at your one eyed fanboyism just feels mean. You know the stats you're quoting are hollow misrepresentations of what actually occurred yet you can't stop spouting them like we're all missing something.

    He was a coddled hype job. His run as WBC champ was awful and he only ever fought people there was no demand for him to fight pre-Ortiz who at 40 years old and still yet to do a great deal as a pro was his biggest test which with the help of some weird rules he managed to come through. He then thought Fury had nothing left and when he showed otherwise he had to have some really controversial judging bail him out, then Feb 22nd happened and well, we saw who he really is in the scheme of things.

    It's funny how you think we're in for a reckoning come October when that's when the curtain gets brought down on the Wilder dog and pony show.

    Yeah, that sure was a weird one, and I haven't seen it before or since, so it's certainly something which isn't typical.

    This was Wilder's take on what happened and Ortiz's issues with it:

    "They need excuses. Every time a person lose, you notice how they need some type of excuse. We get this in every fight. What is a few seconds?"

    A resume, by definition, is your previous experience. (It's literally the definition.)

    Nobody mentions Chisora's resume, for example, without bringing up his fights with Vitali, Helenius and Whyte, etc. And he didn't win any of them.

    Why is Chisora fighting Usyk next. Because of Chisora's BIG wins over Zakaria Azzouzi and Senad Gashi?

    Use some common sense.

    If you think Andy Ruiz was ever the WORLD champion, then you need to ride home, son.

    I agree with most it clear wilder has thebweaker chin of the two as AJ has fought much, much tougher opposition.

    AJ dropped by
    Wlad
    Ruiz
    Briefly hurt by Whyte (AJ was back in control of fight less than 10 seconds after this).

    Wilder dropped by
    Scroniers
    Nichols
    Fury
    Hurt by Molina
    Briefly hurt by Breazeale (Wilder KOed him shortly after)
    Badly rocked by Ortiz and put on on wobbly legs

    The answer is clear.

    Source: Dillian Whyte lol. I'll take Banks word and write that off.

    AJ got dropped pretty damn hard by the shell of Wlad.
