12 wins (5 ko's) - 41 losses - 4 draws

Big punchers he went the distance with included -

Oliver McCall (fought last week, Wilson aged 50)
Samuel Peter
Hasim Rahman
Ike Ibeabuchi
Andrew Golota
Shannon Briggs
Ray Mercer (held him to a draw)
Jeremy Williams
David Izon

Also went the distance with Greg Page, Carl Williams, Orlin Norris, Larry Donald, Chazz Witherspoon, Kirk Johnson and Tyrell Biggs to name a few.
Mcall has a better chin. Wilson has a good chin, but he is realy good at stink fighting holding, smothering, etc.

BTW, he didn't hold Mercer to a draw. He beat the crap out of Mercer. That is easily in my top 5 robberies of all time. Al Berstein of all people went bonkers when they announced that it was a draw. Mercer shook his head in shame and raised Wilson's hand in victory. I know this has nothing to do with the thread, but I hate robberies. AND the People should know the truth!! :TU: :TU:
