    Fury schooled him badly. Even officially Wilder didn't beat him

    I thought you had to land punches in a boxing match though?

    No, it's not comparable. That's my whole point.

    It's much more powerful and rangy, which makes it dangerous, but it's also a shot that any decent fighter can see coming.

    Bellew is more of a traditional boxer, crisp, compact, no lunging or giant leaps into an opponent's chest, which means he's more likely to get his shots through but less likely to cause absolute fight ending damage.

    Way more powerful, but way less accurate. That was his point. Wilder couldn't land a single right hand on Szpilka in the first 8 rounds and Szpilka gets hit a lot. I mean, he got hit plenty of times by small and slow journeyman Mike Mollo in both fights way more than he was hit by Wilder. There were moments in Wilder - Szpilka fight where Wilder made Szpilka look like a prime Pernell Whitaker - so badly he missed with his right hand (watch from the the 1:26 on this video):

    His right hand is ridiculously precise, just watch the right hands against ortiz and brezeale. The thing is that wilder is consistently progressing, the guy is not even 15 years into boxing.
    I hope this fight gets made, we can make a bet on that.
    If usyk wins i will be happy cause I like him and dislike wilder and if wilder wins I will be right. Therefor I have nothing to loose haha.

    Wallin hardly landed any punches. He just cut Fury with one of the only ones that landed flush.
