Has there ever been a fighter who's been praised so much for beating a 40 year old?

AJ beating wlad was not a great win. all he had to do was sit it out in defence until wlad wilted.

did he no he went spectacular and paid. Exposed him for bad tactics.

HOwever it is a better win than Ortiz for sure. Ortiz is realistically to all intents and purposes a retired journeyman. This is Wilders best win. Wilder pyses on the title.

****** thread, AJ was Christianed the future of the heavyweight era for beating an old inactive for 2 years Wlad coming off a loss at home and Thee MAN even though Fury already whitewashed a younger Klitschko who was active and a unified champ while in his home country!

Wilder deserves the praise as Ortiz was ducked by many for a reason for quite sometime!

Bingo!! How tf do you make a thread like this withoutht expecting AJ vs Wlad not to come up smh lmao

[Larry the boss]

Joshua beating Wlad????

[Larry the boss]

wald was the champ and had a 10 year unbeaten run. Ortiz is a journeyman who's never held a title.

wlad had 0 belts and was coming off of a loss and a 2 year layoff

Hilariously, Ortiz is very likely older than that.

this was no average 40 year old. this was ortiz! the guy with one top 10 win in his entire career. he's great because of the eye test! ggg is a bum because beating 10 top 10 fighters is easy because they were tomato cans! beating 1 is great because i like him!
