Pure entertainment value and excitement, fights that kept you at the edge of your seat Wilder has the upper hand in my opinion
Joshua vs Klitscko was a great fight
Wilder vs Ortiz was great and
Wilder vs Fury
I'm not a fan of either guy, this is my unbiased assessment so far
I agree with this in terms of the whole fight but I think Wilder v Fury will be more memorable
Given where fury was at going into that fight, the outcome may be more improbable, but aj vs wlad was the most exciting hw fight in years at that point and started to bring life back to a division that felt dead.
AJ vs Klitschko stands out for AJ while Wilder vs Ortiz and Wilder vs Fury stands out for Wilder, these are facts that Wilder had 2 Fight of the Year contenders in one year against solid opposition while also have a Knockout of the year contender and would’ve had 2 if that corrupt ref Jack Reiss would’ve did his job and signaled an end for an unconscious fighter!
So Ortiz is more competitive than the likes of Povetkin, Whyte and Parker? If so, who exactly is it that he's beaten in order to prove it? Because in all fairness, until he gets a decent scalp on his record, I'm not even sure that he's any more competitive than the likes of Chisora and Takam, yet alone any of the aforementioned names. Get outta here with this bs.

What do you mean by Wilder has the upper hand over Joshua? I get you are saying he is winning in exciting fights by the score of 2 to 1 but in what sense does Wilder have an upper hand? Having 1 more exciting fight than Joshua puts him in a better position how?
Joshua could roll right over Ortiz and Fury easy and then what? Its still 2-1 to Wilder? Still got the upper hand?
what you shhhmokkin
As an English boxing fan who actually loves all 3 top boxers I disagree completely with the 1st mention on this regarding Joshua and Wilder opponents.
First off Joshua fought a few top undefeated boxers in Parker...Whyte,,,,Breazedale....these 3 were top heavyweights....all 3 still top eight ranked.
Then we can argue he fought povetkin and klit who may have been slightly past best.
I see Wilder as the biggest 1 punch ko of alltime but ability in the ring is awful...Ortiz schooled Wilder till old age set in and Fury outboxed him....
Wilders opponents are limited at best bar these 2...I aint taking nothing from wilder as punch wise he is sensational but his actual opponents v Joshua do NOT stack up...
If these guys fight it is a 5050...I see Joshua fighting the Parker tactics again behind a jab and Wilder swinging for the heavens getting out boxed completely...
I am speaking here as a neutral as I honestly love both these guys but silly posts saying Wilder had 2 and Josh 1 shows you are limited .
Fury is awkward and is not a puncher....but Joshua has the skill set with power and had Fury been a power puncher this fight would have ended early...Ortiz and fury both showed he is easy to outbox and out point....yet Joshua will bang...
My only slight issue with Joshua is he has no head movement and if he gets caught it will be square on with a massive side temple hit and if this lands it will be game over ..interesting replies guys ....but lets keep it real when posting not a ridiculous post like this
smh so what exactly the point of this thread?
in 40 fights, wilder has had ONLY TWO vs actual competitive opponents
Joshua has had 22 fights, unified twice, defended 7 times, fought at least 8 top 10 opponents. but they aren't as "exciting" because he always finds a way to get them out early.
1.The point of this thread that is just my personal observation and opinion,that's all it is
2. that's still one more competitive opponent then joshua has had
3. That's because his oppositions was decent but not good enough to pose a threat, and you knew he was supposed to win and likely going to win, which he also did.
smh so what exactly the point of this thread? trying to change the narrative only works when there aren't established, objective facts.
in 40 fights, wilder has had ONLY TWO vs actual competitive opponents, in which he basically needed miracles to win. never mind the fact that both opponents had no business being in the ring at the time, but yea, he's fought "killa after killa" doe.

Wilder vs Fury was awful. All what happened was fury got up from a strong hit? What was entertainment other than that?
lol, you're kidding, right?
I know you always want to have something negative to say but at least think before you respond or start a thread.
Lol wilder has him losing his mind.
Was Wilder-Fury exciting? It wasn't even competitive. A 1 sided fight with 2 knockdowns.
