Why Do People Pretend That Wilder Wasn't Signed to Fight the #2 HW in The World.....

That was like 2 years ago what is he doing now, I barely remember what he looks like.
At least Wilder fights on a regular basis, so I can actually enjoy him not just live in the past~Comment

Wilder and AJ's resumes are about equal, I would say, but AJ has far less experience than Wilder.Klitschko is irrelevant. He hasn't fought him yet.
They both fought Molina, but Wilder fought him first.
Joshua's best win is Martin. Martin was TBRB #9 when Joshua beat him.
Wilder's best win is Stiverne. Stiverne was TBRB #3 when Wilder beat him.
The Duhaupas win is just as impressive as the Martin win. Duhaupas was in the TBRB top ten a lot longer than Martin.
Wilder has the better resume. I don't say that as a criticism of Joshua at all. I'm saying that as a criticism of the idiot trolls that treat Wilder with a double standard.
If Wilder and Joshua keep winning, they will fight. May the best man win.
Wilder's best win is Stiverne. The same Stiverne who lucked out by getting a WBC title shot for beating an overweight, punched out Arreola ... then won the title by beating that same overweight, punched out journeyman for a second time!
I would class Brezeale and possibly Martin as both at least as good as Stiverne. And Joe Parker has beaten Andy Ruiz, who I would say is better than anybody Wilder has been in with.
I don't blame Wilder for the Povetkin fight not happening though, and I happen to think that Washington is an acceptable opponent for a champion coming back from quite major arm and hand surgery.Comment

Green K for the intelligent posts from true boxing fans.Wilder and AJ's resumes are about equal, I would say, but AJ has far less experience than Wilder.

Cheers mate! And looking at my post again, I see I didn't mention Dillian Whyte as being a name on AJ's resume as good as any on Wilder's .. imo.Wilder and AJ's resumes are about equal, I would say, but AJ has far less experience than Wilder.

Can't believe I forgot about Dillian.Comment

I think Whyte, Breazeale and Martin would all get beat by Johann Duahaupus~ I think he has beat better fighters than all those guys too.Comment

Thank you for your opinion, but it still doesn't make sense to trash Wilder's resume over the others when the consensus is that Stiverne is a better win. Stiverne was TBRB #3 when Wilder beat him. Ruiz was unranked when Parker beat him.
The random opinion of some random dude on the internet about the skill level of Ruiz should not trump the consensus of the world's leading experts.
The WBC is, by far, the most prestigious heavyweight title. The WBO is, by far, the least prestigious heavyweight title. Stiverne managed to win the top title. Ruiz failed in his bid to win the bottom title. There's no logical reason to believe Ruiz is deserving of more credit than Stiverne earned at his peak.Comment

But nice projecting.
