flubby to be fair to him does seem a hard guy to keep down, he came back from the dead a few times v wilder

its too bad wilder has such a small sample size of fights against good competition. oh well. biggest puncher ever though vs bums. a great honor

its still pretty good, ggg was good at that too

ggg has 9 kos in his 14 fights against top 10 competition. seems a lot different than 2 out of 6.

[daggum]

can someone explain this to me? i heard he was the biggest puncher in boxing history. did that come with the qualifier "against unranked bums" and should that be a mandatory addition whenever someone says that about wilder? i say yes

[daggum]

if someone ko's 100 unranked opponents will they supplant wilder as the biggest puncher ever?

using the ring rankings. helenius and spilzka were not ranked and stiverne was only ranked in the first fight in which he was not ko'd. so wilder has a grand total of 2 ko's against top 10 fighters, and that was the same guy...weak as hell but keep pretending guys like helenius were legit opponents if you want.

37 year old with a 15 year pro career and hes ko'd one top 10 opponent. maybe hes so dangerous everyone avoided him....oh wait no he ducked everyone good his entire career and the only good opponent he fought and lost to, he thought he was fighting a shot out of shape version. whoopsie
