    He will be up there in discussion of biggest punchers of all time. Hes still limited there because he dont have much of an inside game


    But his resume sucks, he like isnt even top 30 all time of heavies. theres just too many other guys out there that did more

        wilder couldn’t get the win against a 50% Fury in the first fight and a 70% Fury in the 3rd fight. He’s a good heavyweight that could beat a few greats in history but he’s not an ATG
        Ortiz didn’t pass his physical in the first fight . He was and is well past it now ,Ortiz probably beats Wilder had they fought before 2017 .

            Wlad Klitschko was the true top puncher unified champion of this era actually prior to Fury ,he even knocked out Wilder in one of his camps . Wilder unfortunately has gathered more notoriety just because he’s absurd . Klitschko is a prime example of an ATG not just inside the ring but out , Wilder reminds me of a little kid in a grown mans body .

            Wilder vs Joyce is what I want though ,Wilder has yet to really defeat a proven puncher who has no health ailments . I’m still saying he has a suspect chin ,what keeps him up is heart though that being said he’s not an ATG and champions of their era usually deserved that status but I don’t see it here .

                No. He beat mostly smaller guys. Need to see what he can do against someone else other than Fury, Fury made Wilder his *****

                    He might go down as technically the worst HW world champion in history.
                    It's literally like watching somebody who can't box but just has a huge right hand. That's pretty much what he is.

                      Of course not.

                      is he one of the most gripping fighters to watch? Yeah, you just never know if he’s going to land a ridiculous shot.

                      He’s also been part of a great trilogy in terms of rivalry and pure entertainment, but reality the difference in quality between the two was never that close.

                      Like him or not, people will look back on him as a very entertaining knockout artist and giving people entertaining nights, but he’s not an all time great fighter.

                      His power is real though.

                      Still, people talk about people like Vitali as a great fighter and his resume might be worse than Wilder’s.
