    Comparing resumes is highly subjective. Some people give more importance to wins than embarrassing loses, when their favorite fighter is involved, of course. Others get thrown in the coals after one loss. Successful defenses against contenders in a mediocre era or cruisers coming up doesn't make up for losing to Ross Purrity and Lamon Brewster in my eyes.
    Wilder has one of the worst resumes for a champ ever. he only fought 5 top 10 guys.... Stivern once, Ortiz twice and Fury twice.

    Ortiz gave him fits both fights, and Fury won both fights..

    Wlad dominated for a decade and was beating top contenders left and right. People get allured by fighters being "undefeated" but anyone can be undefeated if they don't fight the best

      Then he beat Sanders a$$ mercilessly

        And still Klitshcko lost to trash?

        Wilder fought who he had to. Never ducked his mandatory obligations. Wlad has dominated contenders and blown up cruisers from one of the worst eras and lost to bums.

        Arthur Spilzka and Malik Scott were top contenders when Wilder beat them. Oscar Rivas, Trevor Bryan, Kubrat Pulev, Agit Kabayel, and Adam Kownacki are all top contenders today. How would these scalps could toward's Wilder's resume?

          Arthur Spilzka and Malik Scott were NOT top contenders

          the only ranked fighters Wilder fought during his reign were Stiverne and Ortiz (twice) and Fury (twice)

          Wlad fought the best, he fought everyone
