Why do some people pretend anyone at HW could beat Wilder?

What we're you watching, Ortiz looked like what he is in the second fight, an OLD MAN.
Yes he was outboxing Wilder, guess what, Eric Molina outboxed Wilder.
Ortiz is a bum who's only good win in his entire career was Bryant Jennings.

Wlad, Vitali and Lewis would be problems for any HW's in history.
Liston: Great finisher, intense psychological pressure, strong, great chin, punches in bunches, great jab, defensively ok, could fight all ranges.
Vitalie: Horrid finisher, no real pschyolgical presence to speak of, strong, great chin, occasionally can throw a combo, decent jab, Defensively ok, only really fights from the outside.
So, this gives you an idea of how Vitalie would probably do against a great heavyweight fighter.

Failing to close a fight because you don't have enough stamina to keep an attack going for more than 2 minutes is a sign of a shot fighter.
In the second fight Ruiz looked old, slow and shot from the first bell. Yes, he was outscoring Deontay, but only because Deontay was doing nothing except wait for an opening to land his big right hand.
In that second fight Ortiz landed jabs, he was winning rounds like he should, and as a smart fighter, if you win the rounds with the jab, why risk the bigger punch? As far as the first fight, Ortiz was no different than many fighters in the division today who lack the ability to fight 3 minutes of every round and tire in the later rounds... what is AJ's excuse? Or Whyte's?

Ok so lets look at Vitali. I think he was better than his brother, and had some decent qualities of durability, chin, power... Now compare him to Liston (bare with me) and you will see what the long game looks like, when evaluating what a fighter is capable of. I use Liston because Liston has some similarities with the unrefined style, psychology and development of a fighter like vitalie. Both men were durable, big, strong, had power and could fight. Heres how a comparison would look after watching tape, evaluating competition, etc...

Ortiz looked good to me that fight. He was constantly throwing the jab, working off the jab occasionally hitting with the cross... I mean you really think he looked like a shot fighter? We can agree to disagree.
I’m beating you 11 rounds, you KO me in the 12th. I suck. And the fighter who got the KO also sucks, because he lost 11 rounds and his power won him the fight.
So both professional fighters suck according to the guy on the couch.billeau2 likes this.

That's being very selective. For one, you don't need to be a good finisher to win a fight. On top of that, if Ali's KO of Liston happens today, every says Liston is packing glass. Let's put it this way, Tyson Fury beats Liston whether he fights off the back foot, like he did against Wlad, or on the front foot like he did vs Wilder. Liston could only dream of having the variation and skillset of Tyson Fury. Way to much bias goes in favor of these olden day guys.

He'll be easier to beat now that Fury has shown how it's done. Wilder will need to adapt because previously his opponents, including Fury in the first fight, relied on out-boxing him. That was a failed strategy because, as Wilder puts it, he only has to be good for a second of each fight. Fury showed that he can be bullied on the inside if a fighter can slip the right hand to get there.
