    It is absoloutley atrocious.

    There's not one established, accomplished heavyweight on there except maybe Stiverne lol.

    For a 10 defence belt holder, his record is so padded it's unbelievable, I could easily see contenders from the 90s like Briggs, Ray Mercer and others going through his entire resume like a hot knife through butter.

        Of any long term belt holder? It has to at least be close.

        I mean someone offer me some other options because I'm struggling. His reign was pathetic.

          despite his lost

          is AJ's resume stronger than Wilder's?

            I don't think that's even debatable

                  Nah it's not really that bad...but when you KO everyone, you scare some people...so the only recourse they have is to say all those guys ******.

                  The laughable part is some people saying Whyte or Parker has a better resume than Wilder...or even Povetkin...Povetkin's is similar...about 10 good wins over OK-Good fighters...mostly by KO.

                  Just factually look at even AJ vs Wilder:

                  AJ has a washed Wlad - good win, great fight
                  Ruiz - and no one really know how good Ruiz is...AJ also has a bad loss to Ruiz
                  40 year old Povetkin, who just drew with Michael Hunter
                  Uneventful hometown 12 round UD over Parker
                  Hometown TKO over Takam in 10...who was legit TKOd by Chisora right after that in 8

                  And then Whyte (who for some reason - well we know what reason - some are really high on him) Breazeale, Molina and Martin...3 of them are just OK and we don't know exactly how good Whyte is.

                  Wilder:
                  Draw with out of shape Fury
                  Worked over by an in shape Fury
                  Ortiz
                  Ortiz

                  And then Stiverne 1 (Stiverne 2 I can't really give a ton of credit for)...Brezeale, Molina, Washington, Spilzka, Arreola, Duhapaus.

                  You could argue AJ has a couple more impressive 'good' wins...and Wilder has a few more 'OK' wins right now...which makes a bit of sense as Wilder has more fights, and AJ was pushed sooner in his career than Wilder was, and also as a mega A-side has been able to pick his fights a bit easier.

                  Anyone who can look at those 2 groups of fights and swear up and down that AJ's resume is golden and Wilder's is bad is just a fanboy imho...but we have many of those on here so I'm sure this post will stir up some tears and emotional responses in efforts to defend their heroes.

                    Martin V Washington was a good analogy for AJ and Wilders resumes

                    AJ's "worst" win ktfo one of Wilders top 5 wins
