There's been a fair share of that in boxing in this era.

I've given Wilder stick from the start and what fit best for me was a "manufactured" product. That doesn't mean he was a complete fraud at all. But his flaws were blinding but like a few before him and too many after him, they became trained into his skill set, glossed over never fixed and a part of what we saw. Overshadowed increasingly by a 1 or 2 shot eraser. Next thing you know sober fans are mixing Tyson and Wilder in the same sentence. Which was nuts lets just be straight. But honestly, I wish he would exit the game and let it be. He doesn't need to take more punches and the boxing cynic in me says he may very well score an old school highlight reel KO this weekend...may...and we know, we just know that some money bag boxing vultures would like to move him into a higher level "big" fight next out. There's no way he's cashing out in some bingo hall in BF Witchita Kansas. That shell will be shined up and talked up and passed on. That's the point where guys soak up lasting damage, more of it. I hope he retires.

Best fighter he’s ever beat was a 40 year old Ortiz.

Popped dirty not once but twice and blew the first fight date. Even then Ortiz had Wilder wobbling and reeling before the roof collapsed on him late, in both fights.
