    Ever.

    My money's on a prime Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis or someone explosive enough to close the distance and shatter his glass before he's even in the fight.

    Somebody with a jab, size and footwork.

    Any heavyweight boxer with good footwork would give him a boxing lesson.

    But I agree

    Yeah, ever, never, wever. I don't think Tyson is a bad matchup for Wilder though. Lewis is worse.

    Tyson obliterates Wilder
    Wilder has glass, poor footwork, a severe lack of defence and only one punch, which Tyson wasn't really hit by much anyway
    I can picture Wilder sitting there uncomfortable at the press conference before screaming BOMBSQUAD as loud he can as a confidence booster before Tyson just turns and looks at him coldly and says
    Shut the **** up

    And he does and goes on to get KOed

    Yes. Wilder's skills, while getting better, aren't a huge improvement over his amateur days. Bet says he will never face Romanov in the pros.

    Corrie "The Sniper" Sanders (RIP) would've snuck in there and ko'd Wilder.

    Even Povetkin (in his prime) would have knocked out Wilder
