Wilder is just talking. Although I agree with the sentiment that Tyson didn’t fight the best competition and did lose to the best fighters he faced, it is still undeniable that Tyson fought better competition than Wilder and was much more impressive.

I mean look at a fighter like Ruddock. Besides Fury, who else has he fought at that level? I can name a handful of fighters that Tyson fought that were better than everyone Wilder has fought besides Fury and maybe on par with Ortiz.

I fully admit that Wilder has upped his competition in the past few years, but even that isn’t much in perspective. Wilder will not go down in history as an ATG or anywhere even near it. At this point, he isn’t even a HOFer in my book. Despite Tyson’s downfalls, he is easily a HOFer.
