We have to appreciate prime Deontay Wilder was one of the hardest hitters in boxing history

Namur

ngannou has a known chin in ufc, not boxing. The blows are very different, boxing is a lot more powerful, accurate and direct.

fury should have done that to him but fury’s accuracy/power is poor in his power shots so doesn’t often hit chin with power. His powerful shots are usually landing on top of the head or somewhere. The ones that hit the chin don’t carry much power.

 

Dense?

Not at all... I just don't buy into popular hype narratives unless there's good reason to.

And there was never good reason to buy into Wilders hype - he was gifted one of the weakest champions in history, given an incredibly easy ride by his org and never beat a single legit contender... Whilst running a mile from the likes of Joshua and Whyte who were both desperate to fight him.

Truth is, though, I've been saying this about Wilder long before his last two fights - he was never legit...

 

Not really. Joshua is a more proven puncher. Povetkin alone is better than anyone Wilder has knocked out. Joshua even managed to rock Usyk a couple of times, and Usyk has one of the most proven chins in the sport.

 

Boxers hit much harder than MMA fighters.

 

Do they? I'm not so sure.

 

lol. Nobody ever ran from whyte!

 

100% yes. Suprised a boxing fan doesn’t know this.
mma= a “jack of all trades, specialist in none” type of fight
Boxing = 100% dedication on punches, train everyday on punches, it’s all they do.

Also, boxers would struggle in mma gloves, because the bones in your hand would break from punching too hard for such little gloves.
Boxers often break their hands in 8oz gloves they hit that hard.

 

The problem with this thinking is quite often these people go against the grain just to prove they are not following a narrative.

The truth is the actual popular narratives in the heavyweight division have been that fury is the lineal champ and AJ is the current champ, the popular narrative gave wilder the least credit.
The popular narrative is that wilder fought nobodies and no ranked fighters.

You do follow and echo this narrative even though the documented evidence shows it’s completely untrue. It’s only actual boxing specialists who credit wilder. The social media, casuals etc don’t.

So you may think you don’t follow popular narrative but in reality, that’s exactly what you do.
This is known as cognitive dissonance.

 

Lol caliber of the opponent uysk as the crown of
Gypsies king undisputed Viking americwar the lot ring titles everything from his own mum

 

Tell me ydksab without telling me ydksab.

The evidence is unequivocal that Wilder fought trash and proved very little.

And I've been saying it since way back when a decent number of people though Wilder was the #1 in the division... With hindsight, some are catching up.

Some, unfortunately, are incapable of admitting how wrong they got it. A mirror may come in handy at this point.

 

Talk about clueless.

Wilder claimed Whyte was "the dirt on my shoe" and refused to fight him.
Despite Whyte being way more proven than anyone Wilder ever beat - and way more proven than Wilder himself.

If you can't even get basic facts right, you're going to continue looking foolish.

 

Omg. Ok pal. People are scared of whyte lol.
whyte claimed fury was scared of him too, where did that get him?

No serious person in boxing considered whyte a legit threat…he was just a question mark was all. Based on the way he hyped himself.

the popular narrative is exactly what you repeat.

 

Evidence can be found very easily as much is paper based which I recommend anyone go check before claiming they follow evidence…
Go check ring magazine rankings for wilders 10 defences….at least 5 of his opponents were from there.
Joshua has about the same.
this is objective evidence.


his defences in further detail;
areola who was good enough for klitschko to defend against

Molina n brezeale, who were good enough for Joshua to defend against.

Defended against fury who just fought for undisputed a few weeks ago

Ortiz who was ranked in top 3-5 at thethe time in ring magazine and most orgs.

Stiverne who beat Arreola (above) towin klitschko belt after he retired.Stiverne was the favourite vs wilder in this fight, or did you want wilder to not face him?

 

Why do people ignore rankings and then call champions rubbish when they fight ranked fighters and claim they’re not ranked?
And then promote their fave fighters fighting the same guys?
It doesn’t make sense

 

He has crushed a lot of cans. These cans have also been crush by other boxers. So does that make all these other boxers that crushed the same can as Wilder the hardest punchers ?
