The notion that he's a fake and a terrible fighter and champion is odd though. He's the only active Heavyweight to win a unification fight (2), he's also beaten more ranked opponents than Wilder and Wilder's best win/only credible win was over Ortiz who had never been a champion and was lower ranked than Parker for example. Klit was old (about the same age as Ortiz) but in much better shape and a much better fighter than Ortiz will ever be and has ever been).
What's funny is that is that Joshua's so bad yet he'd be Wilder's signature win and if he pulls the upset you can bet his fans would put Wilder right near the top of the all-time Heavyweight rankings based on the win and the only way he wins is by an out of the blue KO after Joshua did the hard work of beating ranked opponents and winning 75% of the belts. Wilder would just be Buster Douglas part 2.
