It is a fair point... One has to look at the film. Wilder shows explosive tendencies that catch his opponents. Also, a lot teeters on the image one has of Ortiz. Ortiz was a highly skilled boxer puncher, and had an undefeated record prior to facing Wilder. As far as evaluating Fury? His performance against Klitsko was textbook... You can literally count the techniques he applies in the ring with respect to movement, timing, footwork, etc.
Wilder is no fluke, it does take an effort to deconstruct the nonsense that posters like Daggum blovate... If one decides that "Ortiz was old and a fluke" and that AJ "fought better competition than the rest" one can call Wilder a fluke... But the problem is this reasoning is incorrect.
Ortiz was 40+ and Fury did get popped with steroids and refused a rematch with tighter testing. just sayn.
