    Wilder TBE????? No way could I agree with that. Wilder isn't bad. He has his weaknesses and his strengths but neither he nor Fury is the best heavyweight boxer in history as they both claim to be. Watch a replay of him struggling to beat mediocre Molina and then seriously say he is TBE. I can think of dozens of past heavyweights who would have smashed Molina to bits with ease in a round or two and one current heavyweight named AJ who KOed Molina very quickly and easily. Beating undefeated fighters is no big deal and many undefeated fighters aren't very good but have never fought any good fighters. Wilder has only defeated two legit top 10 heavyweights in his entire career and that's Stiverne and 38 year old Ortiz. That is really nothing to get too excited about. Overall Fury has beaten better fighters so far.

    He didn't lose a round to Molina though, it seems that he can't even get punched without getting exposed? Molina is a big powerful HW too, he's 6'4 230 and had a high KO ratio.

    If you held other fighters to the same standards you'd see how laughable these standards are.

    Examples:
    Foreman
    -Knocked down and beaten by Jimmy Young
    -Going 10 rounds with 197lb journeyman Peralta

    Ali
    -Floored hard by 188lb Henry Cooper
    -Floored by 190lb Sonny Banks

    Lewis
    -Put out by McCall, Rahman
    -His punches were walked through by Mavrovic and Mavrovic even had him in trouble at one point, Mavorvic was barely 6'3 215

    Holyfield
    -Gassed badly vs Michael Moorer
    -Struggled mightily with a blown up James Toney
    -Very unimpressive vs an obese Foreman

    Tyson
    -Knocked out by Buster Douglas
    -Couldn't put away Mitch Green and several other part time boxers

    etc.

    Just ask yourself how this forum would react if Wilder lost to a guy like Jimmy Young or was getting put on his ass by 190lb heavies in the pros, knocked out by Douglas, knocked out by Rahman, or gassing vs a blown up LHW like Moorer.
