Definitely not. I measure 'best ever's against quality opposition. Not the dross Wilder's fought. Apart from Fury and Ortiz, I would pick prime Alex Stewart to knockout the rest.

Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Robert Helenius | FITE tv - 15 October 2022
His power is self evident in the way he ends fights,
his right hand is a one punch fight ender and not many fighters have that to rely on. Bruno was a big puncher and he never stopped anyone world class, Mike Tyson didn’t knock out any “great” fighters (unless we say Holmes was still a great when they fought).

Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Robert Helenius | FITE tv - 15 October 2022
Fair enough. Everyone entitled to their option and mine is that’s he’s a freakish puncher for 15st and deserving of being in the conversation when the subject is huge punchers.
I don’t really pick at resumes as boxing is now different from 40 years ago and will probably continue with the mantra of lowest risk/highest reward fights until it most likely gets banned when the dementia link train hits.
Then we can all join a badminton forum and argue there.

After Anthony Joshua has rested up and tried to recover from his EPIC MELTDOWN in the ring after the Usyk 2 rematch (Saudi), oh I forgot his SISSY crying as well in the post-fight press conference - I think AJ should face WIlder next year.
Of course Joshua vs WIlder could mean only 1 outcome - Joshua getting stretchered out the ring and becomes this endless meme for life
Tyson Fury has conquered America with that crazy trilogy with Wilder (Something which dusty Joshua could never do) Fury could use that to trigger little AJ into showing WHO he really is off camera (see Jarrell Miller confrontation)

Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Robert Helenius | FITE tv - 15 October 2022
See this is what I mean about the clever matchmaking, he couldn't stop Stiverne when Stiverne actually trained, despite landing about 100 flush right hands, so they dragged him back in an absolute fat disgraceful state not fit for the ring and Wilder stopped him, so they can say he's stopped every man he's ever facedDioufy wrote: ↑21 Oct 2022, 16:32Stopped everyone he’s ever faced apart from Fury (4 KDs tho).1103924 wrote: ↑21 Oct 2022, 16:25Yep, just Wilder has more of 'em.Controversial wrote: ↑21 Oct 2022, 15:50
All big punchers have opponents they don’t stop, struggle with or lose to.
Wilder is technically atrocious but to me he’s one of the biggest punchers of all time.
One of.
Stiverne ffs, another guy who has been stopped several times, even before Wilder couldn't stop him
Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Robert Helenius | FITE tv - 15 October 2022
He got back up before the ten count, that's not being paid out, and Ortiz is obviously chinny af without the PEDs, dropped by jab from a man they called the worst heavyweight title holder in history, Charles Martin. Martin actually has a better record than Stiverne now!!!Dioufy wrote: ↑21 Oct 2022, 14:46You lost me at “Wilder never laid out Ortiz” tbh.GreenLightning wrote: ↑21 Oct 2022, 12:08Dioufy wrote: ↑17 Oct 2022, 14:33
Wow… calm ya tits…
He’s definitely up there. Look at the way he’s dispatched some of his opponents and for someone whose just over 15st to have the record he does (it might not be a whose who of ATGs but that’s boxing these days) says something for his power.
And try not to be silly, man. I in no way said he’s the biggest puncher of all time because he blew away Helenius… my opinion is based on just more than his last fight.
Wilder never laid out Breazeale or Ortiz or even Audley Harrison, all of them were up by the end of the count, David Price in comparison laid Audley face first, Ruiz dropped Ortiz every time he touched him and Charles Martin dropped Ortiz heavy with a jab, Breazeale gets hurt by every punch that hits him
Oh, he laid out Artur Spzilka, who's been knocked out about 300 times
And an old Liakovich
For somebody who keeps talking about killing people with his power and leaving guys twitching, the only guy he's actually left twitching was Liakovich
One of the best punches of all time, baby!

I only watched the first fight between 'em once, but I don't remember Wilder landing a sh*t load of flush right hands and Stiverne eating 'em up. I don't remember that, because it didn't happen.
He jabbed, kept his distance and played it safe in the first Stiverne fight because that was the first time he (Wilder) had really faced a big puncher himself. There are power punches and there are power punches. He wasn't coming forward in killer mode like he usually does in that fight. I'm sure he landed some right hands in that fight, but he was fighting on the back foot all fight long.

Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Robert Helenius | FITE tv - 15 October 2022
i think wilder would ko usyk and aj , he has improved as a boxer he flatlined ortiz, Stiverne was a tough man wilder was raw when they faced some times it dont happen but with wilder he more or less will have you down how many fighters have put wilder down, you can say the pedigree of the fighters he has faced are so are everyone elses , who has faced the best of the best at there prime no one its prizes fighting get in win get paid thats it ,

Anyone’s career can be dissected to look bad. Foreman fought a lot of journeyman types when he turned pro, most were under 200lb too. Tyson didn’t beat anyone half decent until his 18th fight. Check out Shavers record, loads of his fights were against poor opposition, lots had losing records

Watch how Eric Molina was clearly not scared of Wilder after tasting his power, and almost even chinned him, compared to how terrified he was of AJ, who's knockout punch almost made Molina's head snap back and touch his arse, AJ flattened Molina with the first flush punch he landed, Wilder sure didnt
Foreman fought bums, he also almost murdered undefeated Frazier and nearly killed Ken Norton coming off the Ali victories, Foreman left MANY more men lying twitching on the canvas than Wilder, Foreman was legitimately scary, Wilder seems like hell forever be insecure about his power until he actually kills someone, his carry on after the Helenius fight was embarrassinf
