    Both have devastating right hand power. Who hits harder though?
    Dr. Steelhammer or Bronze Bomber?

    I’m gonna go with wlad because he had it in both hands.

    also I don’t think wilder will be fighting at 41 and knocking the like of AJ down.

    I think Deontay has a slightly harder pure right hand

    but Wlad makes up for that for having a more powerful jab and right hand together.......

    plus Wlad also had a killer left hook

    that’s a close one to call but if I had to choose I’d say Wlad because he had better technique on delivery.
    But Wilder has great natural power

    Wlad was more accurate. he also had a huge left hook that he ended tons of fights with.

    I actually thought Wlads left hook was the bigger money punch than his right....Wlad absolutely flatlined people when he caught them with the left.

    Wlad got power in both hands, but I still think Wilder's best right hand is better than Wlad's best punch

    We've never seen Wlad leave himself open and swing for the fences as Wilder usually does. I have a feeling a lot of jaws would have broken if he had done that. But he would have lost more fights too

    Klitschko based on consistency, longevity and level of opposition. Not even close

    Lol if this post pre-Fury rematch I think we'd be seeing different results.

    Whether he's taken a destructive loss or not, it doesn't change the fact he has absurd power in the right hand. So for sheer one single shot power it's Wilder for me.

    Wlad carries the better power across both hands, his left hook was a nuclear bomb. But as said, that Wilder right hand sends opponents into orbit.

    This has been done many times before and the answer still remains the same = Wladimir Klitschko! On each occasion, Wladimir Klitschko came out on top in this poll.

    Wilder needs his opponents to stand right in front of him statically to KO them with wild swings. Whilst Wladimir Klitschko can KO his opponents with either hand with short-punches without even needing to execute wild-swings like Wilder.

    If Wlad was swinging all over the place like Wilder does, then Wlad would've KO'd virtually every opponent barring only a select few. He'd most certainly KO every opponent Wilder has faced, but in far more brutal fashion.
