Even before this fight I thought anyone trying to hype Fury/Wilder as the top 2 in the division clashing to decide the HW king was seriously reaching. Wilder was never no2, hes probably not no3. I reckon if he fought the rest of the current top 15 he would almost certainly pick up multiple losses.
I honestly didn't see that. Was it someone credible, or was it someone like j razor? I surely didn't elevate him anywhere near that level even though I felt he should've been ranked #1 at HWT.
You definitely didn't but others did, you have to remember that you're a lot more level headed than the rest of Wilder's fan base.
There were definitely Wilder fans claiming he was a borderline ATG, especially after the whole equalling of Ali's ten defences. If you can't remember that then you haven't been paying enough attention bro.

Stop lying and over exaggerating. No one claimed he was the best HWT ever or an ATG. Yes, people picked him to beat other HWT's. That isn't a big deal. You don't remember anyone credible making that claim about Wlad either.
I get that Fury won and his fans and Wilder haters are going to celebrate. I'd do the exact same thing. Just stop lying about posters claiming he was the best HWT in history.

Gtfoh your lot were hyping him through the roof. He was gonna knock everyone else out easy, hardest puncher of all time etc, all based on beating a bunch of crap opponents. We all said for years that wilder was ****e but u lot knew better didnt u!!!!!
Yes, a lot of us were predicting him to beat the other top HWT's in the division. That isn't the same as claiming he wad the best HWT ever or an ATG.
furys only notable wins are a aged wlad and a very very limited fighter in wilder that only had power and can not even through a legit combination. the only reason the wlad win is so big is because he reigned so long but that was only due to a lack of good comp. wlad was way taller than most of them and as soon as he found someone as tall with some skill he lost. HW has been this way for ages now.
Way you guys were gassing him up thats what it seemed like. He was going to ko fury in 1 or 2 roubds before first fight, was gonna knock out joshua easily which is why he apparantly ducked him, hed also demolish whyte and was too powerful for usyk. If all of them predictions came true he would be one of the greatest of all time. Also remember people saying hed have kod wlad and wlad was lucky that fight never happened.
