I'd have Parker over Pov as Pov was well past it when he fought AJ and Parker (at the time) would've beaten him. Not sure Wlad at 104 y/o would be my number one but certainly on the list of three.

EDIT: SHVT! NO sooner than i post, the OP changed. Never mind.

Wlad was pretty much the same age vs AJ as Ortiz was for Wilder 2 wasn't he? I think the difference was just a few months. You can still be a good fighter at that age like Wlad and Luis, and I don't think it's too damaging on the achievement if we are being consistent, similarly I don't really see Povetkin as having being too far done. He's actually younger than Orty btw, who I mention because you seem still to really rate that win in the rematch. Reminds me of a Ewey classic, btw something like :

'Pov was 40 and therefore shot. Ortiz would be a good fight though'
