Deontay Wilder has a fight ahead with undefeated former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. If Wilder defeats Fury and goes on to fight and win against the British world champ (the title agencies are split) he would have a 43-0 record. That's enough to let Wilder make a reasonable claim to being the best boxer in heavyweight history.
To defeat all of the great fighters of one's era and retire undefeated is a feat accomplished only by Rocky Marciano. Wilder could choose to retire undefeated if he defeats the greatest boxers of his time; now.
England's Anthony Joshua avoided setting a match with Wilder and choose to fight a very skillful Russian boxer with just one loss named Alexander Povetkin. Povetkin is much shorter than Joshua yet also a former Olympic heavyweight champion. The fight might be a little like Frasier-Ali.
https://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2018/08/boxing_report_2018.html The heavyweight division is re-energized with four excellent, articulate and very skillful heavyweight fighters that create interesting match ups for those that follow boxing. Three of the fighters have an opportunity to retire undefeated and fairly claim to be the greatest boxer in the history of the sport.
