Deontay Wilder vs. Chris Arreola

[Spicoli]

On your last sentance. Hoe far down any indipendant ranking system like a boxrec where they defending agsinst though?

Wilders must have been hovering around the top 50 mark and not the top 20.

Hhmmm...I don't know where they rank..50 could be!
I was just acknowledging that the legends werent fighting prime young or undefeated.
Does the McCall that stopped Lennox, stop Arreola?
Does the Cooper that drop Holy, drop Duaupas?
Could be. I think Wilder will do as those before him..start fighting ranked fighters we respect around title defense 4-5.
Again Povetkin failed to make a legit titlist.

In relation to Povetkin falling out it cannot touch what put Holyfield in vs Cooper. Except it was Tyson #1 across the board pulling out and Cooper coming in as a TBA third opponent just to save an event. Cooper on his best night was a legitimate big puncher, and he'd come within a bomb to win another strap months later. Foreman was a gold mine after the original 'final four' saw Bowe duck out. Was also ranked top 5, an ATG and people were not laughing so loud after he staggered and lifted Holyfield off the floor at least twice . Then he won the title. I hated the Holmes fight for sure. The event build and fight itself. But he did earn the spot by schooling a world champ in Mercer not to mention fans actually knew who he was
