    If he becomes the champ he will be the biggest thing in boxing and top 3 sports star worldwide. No doubt about it..
    Top 3 sports star? Delusional much?

      GGG has KOed at least 6 guys rated in the top 10 middleweights in the world. Wilder has only defeated one top ten heavyweight and most of his opponents were not even in the top 30 including his opponent tonight. For him to be a superstar he needs to beat the very best heavyweights and I don't think he can beat them.

            Jennings vs Wlad got 1.7 million viewers on HBO for what was essentially an unknown US HW with little chance of winning. Wilder is already a much bigger name than Jennings. If Wilder fights Wlad it will be much bigger, especially if it's on NBC. If Wilder beats Wlad then he will instantly become one of the most famous athletes in the US. Hell I think if you put Wilder vs Molina on NBC it would get 5 million viewers on its own.

              Povetkin is arguably the second best fighter in the division. If Wilder passes that test he is legit. Simple as that.

                so a fighter can't be legit unless they beat the second best fighter in the division? Does that mean there are only to legit fighters in each division?

                Povetkin got beat by Wlad and everyone started calling him a bum for it. So that would mean even the second best fighter in the division isn't legit.

                  I think Povetkin will knock him out easily, if Wilder beats him I will concede but I don't think Wilder is a top tier Heavyweight at the moment.

                    Yes, beating a few quality fighters makes you legit. That's who Wilder faces next. You have to beat some of the best fighters in your division to be legit. I don't understand why that would be difficult to comprehend.

                      If he does become a superstar it won't be for long, AJ is coming and once they fight Wilder will be put to sleep.
