    He seems to hit harder than Tyson or Foreman. He's KOcking guys down with jabs and punches which seem to barely hit the opponent cleanly.

    Either this highlight video is fake and the refs are conspiring to prematurely stop his fights or he really has superhuman punching power. He also has very quick hands, footwork, and extremely long reach.

    It almost looks fake how much power he appears to have.

    Yup. And that's exactly why Wilder's "power" is just as fraudulent as the "opposition" he has faced.:yep

    If Tyson and Foreman spent their careers facing taxi drivers and not guys like Holyfield and Ali, then yes i guess their stats would look a bit more impressive as well.

    Heres something to ponder.

    Try to form a top ten list of quality guys ko'd by Wilder, Tua, Briggs and Sam Peter.

    Probably #2P4P right now behind Ali Raymi. Unfortunately for Wilder, he risks KO'ing himself every time he goes to scratch his chin due to his sheer power.
