    Joe Smith is the hardest puncher in this sport p4p and I dont think anybody else really comes close. His power is on a completely and totally other level.

    Hes the only fighter in the world who can compete against the best fighters in the world with literally nothing else going for him besides pure power.

    Hes like a barroom brawler with no skills speed, defense, accuracy, balance, etc.

    Even Wilder has impressive speed, durability and stamina.

    Beterbiev is still a harder puncher.

    I dont think so. If you gave Smith, Beterbievs pedigree, strength and skill you would see the same results.

    You also strawmanned. Answer the question. Who else can compete against world class fighters with nothing except pure power?

    If you took away everything Beterbiev has except for his power and raw strength, then Beterbiev could.

    Great performance by Smith. That judge who gave it to Hart should be banned

    Joe Smith is very heavy handed. He did wobble Bivol.

    But Wilder, Inoue, and Beterbiev are all above him.

    Maybe, but Beterbiev is clearly more skilled.

    Joe Smith has nothing other than power.

    Nah, he's just more skilled and accurate. If Beterbiev fought Hart he'd hospitalize him, the fight wouldn't last 5 rounds. But if Smith had the skillset to actually land with the accuracy of Beterbiev, the fight tonight wouldn't have made it out of the first round.

    wouldn't have made it out of the 1st against Beterbiev unless he wanted rounds.
