First of all... An amateur fight is no where near the same as a professional bout. Hence my criticisms of the hype around Ortiz.
Second of all...
That's not true, Wilder had 35 amateur fights 30-5
Joshua had 40-3
Thats an eight amateur fight difference compared to a twenty professional bout difference.
But ye, if how long and more importantly 'how' you did it, is arbitrary to you then we are gonna stick on disagreement there... Not that having a difference of opinion is a bad thing, it's what keeps thought moving forward, I just disagree.
From my point of view, for example...
Beating Klitchko for the IBF belt and being the first to beat him means a lot lot more than beating a guy who won it after the champ got stripped, fought for a vacant title then the guy who was beating you up for several rounds blew his knee out.
See, don't get me wrong, I know AJ has big flaws, huuuuge flaws in fact and has also fought some weak opponents in glorified ways - the above mentioned situation vs Martin, Splizka was the way better fighter out of the two and Wilder dealt with him - and Wilder has done some good.
I just feel that putting them on a level footing, is unjust as one has proven himself in a much more glorified way whereas the other has and is continuing to fight miss matched fighters.
Brezeale and potentially Martin is literally a joke at this stage of their careers and I would call the exact same bshit if it was Joshua.
