    I agree. Anyone who went down against Tua generally didn't get up again, or if they did were so discombobulated that they'd be viciously KOed a few seconds later. That's the pattern throughout Tua's career and one of the reasons his punching power was so highly regarded. I can't think of a single fight in his prime actually where he got a flash KD, or where an opponent went on to win or even see out the fight after tasting the canvas against him. Dude dropped bodies like the Black Death.

    Ridiculous power. I just have to rate that samoan power. Able to put so much of his weight into his tight hooks that he threw. That Ruiz KO made me question whether he hit harder than prime Foreman or not.

    Wilder is superior to Tua as Wilder has some exceptional features of Boxing

    In his prime (before the manager break), Tua would take out Wilder very early.

    Despite the title defenses and whatever, with how terrible wilder's balance is and being constantly rocked by Fury who is not a puncher, I'll take Tua by KO. Idc about the heart, i think he goes out cold
