Talks are ongoing for a huge showdown between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder in Saudi Arabia.
But the Matchroom promoter isn’t impressed with the Bronze Bomber.
Speaking to Boxing Social he said: “I cannot believe how highly people rate Deontay Wilder. He’s never beaten a top-five heavyweight.
“Luis Ortiz is his best win – he was getting smashed in the first fight, he was 7-0 down in the second fight. He’s never beaten an elite heavyweight.”
Joshua eventually managed to knock out Robert Helenius in his last outing.
