    Wilder's right hand is probably the most powerful of the 3, but his opposition has been horrible. The other two have compiled a decent resume to show their power is real but Kovalev and GGG have a better arsenal of punching power. I do think that if Wilder's right hand lands clean, nobody is gonna take it. I just want to see it proven.

    Wilder has fought bums hard to tell
    GGG has exquisite placement of his punches making them more effective
    Kovalev KO's with glancing blows and weak jabs
    Kovalev has scary power

    Sergey's KO's haven't really been SCARY. Dude has insane power but on the level of Wilder? I'm not quite sure. :think

    Wilder's Liakhovich KO was downright scary. The man was going into spasms after 1 combination, Jesus. :admin:scaredas:

    Well, that is true. But that was an accumulation of punches throughout the entire fight, no single shot really put him down.

    I'm sure if Wilder was able to get that many shots off, we'd see something similar, hopefully not but you never know.

    Similar to Duk Doo Kim vs Boom Boom. Boom Boom never really had frightening power, it was just an accumulation of punches, Duk Doo Kim being overmatched and yeah of course the 15 rounds.

    I have. Never again though.

    Fights that include deaths are fights that I'll never watch again.

    Mancini/Duk Doo Kim, very very action packed but I'll never watch that again in my life.

    I'm a big Mancini fan, because my family was, I was 2 when Kim died but I heard about it a lot, when I got older I tracked it down, but it depressed the **** of me when I finally saw it, ruined me on boxing for a little while.

    Yeah it's depressing stuff

    The aftermath was equally as depressing

    Ref AND Kim's mother taking their own life because of it. :-(
