    Deontay Wilder has only ever fought one top ten opponent

    Deontay Wilder has only ever faced one top ten Ring or Transnational opponent, and that was Bermane Stiverne who isn't really very good and has never fought any top ten HW other than Wilder.

    Anthony Joshua turned pro 4 years after Wilder. He's YOUNGER by 4 years and had no more amateur experience than Wilder, but he's already set to fight ATG Wladimir Klitschko, who has been ranked in the Ring top 3 for 11 years.

    I think Joshua's past opponents like Breazeale and Martin are better than Wilder's last opponent, poor old shot-to-pieces Cristobal Arreola.

    Why not just make a thread and give Joshua his kudos?

    Hard to blame Wilder for the actions of drug cheats

      debtable whether stiverne is really top 10 either. suppose he was technically, but who has he beat? Past prime chris arreola twice and thats about it. But the wilder fans have blamed wilders ****e cv on povetkin getting caught on peds, thats the reason hes fought complete garbage for almost 40 fights apparantly, its not wilders fault...

          fast forward a few years, he'll be 50-0 with charlie zelenoff still as one of his best wins and they'll be trotting out that same line 'but its not his fault povetkin failed the test'

              People say HW is a weak division...

              If so, why does Wilder refuse to fight anyone in the top ten?

                    and the worst thing is the demographic will defend this guy to the death, despite criticising other fighters for cherry picking, wilder gets a free pass. I wonder why that is....
