    I like ortiz hes experienced has great boxing school but at 36 can he hang with the young guns?_joshua looks dominant but his best win has a question mark if whyte got hurt early in their fight fury is a k.o waiting 2 happen martin won by default when the other cuy got hurt browne looked vulnerable against chagaev havent seen much bout parker and what happened to the chubby flash andy ruiz???

      Wilder???? Sometimes I wonder if people have actually seen Wilder fight. The guy is raw as f#ck still. Its quite a feat that he's won a title with his skill level. I think clever matchmaking, above average heart (which is why I've suggested many times that he'll be in some fun ass fights, win or lose, in the future cuz he's gonna get dropped & he can obviously drop guys too) & Breland giving a tall HW a nice jab have been the main advantages Wilder has had in his career. I can't imagine that gets him much further. If Wilder somehow becomes the legit #1 HW by running thru Fury, Joshua, Parker, Povetkin & Ortiz that'll say more about the new subpar HW era we just entered more than it'll say anything about Wilder's talent.

      That said I'm rooting for Wilder as he seems like a nice enough guy & how can you not root for him via his daughter, but his skills seem seriously lacking to me.

          So if he loses, you were right that he's weak, and if he runs through his opposition, you were right that the opposition is weak?

          LOL, quite a cosy position you've put yourself in there. Haters should learn from you, you do what they do except you have a win-win strategy. Perhaps a career in politics would do wonders for you.

            Have you seen him box a few times? To make a more extreme example of the point I'm trying to illustrate it'd be like saying if Butterbean had become the #1 HW it'd have said more about the competition than Butterbean.

            Like I said I like the guy & I'm rooting for him (he seems like a good dude) . Plus he's gotten mad far on what ability he does have & with some of the stuff Breland gots him focusing on, but the guy just boxes poorly, leaves himself disturbingly wide open at times & does goofy **** in the ring in general.

            And I give zero f#cks about being right or some of the silly **** some guys, like you, care about or seem to care about or brag about being right on or dog people about being wrong on like a bunch of 5th graders.

              You can scratch Wilder off the list when he fights one of the guys on the list
