Interesting interviews! He gets asked how hard Wilder hits at 1:50 This content is protected Here he is comparing Vitali to Wilder in terms of power. Cool perspective! This content is protected There was 2-3 times in their fight where Vitali really sat on his right hand. When Vitali really put everything behind his shots... his power was NASTY. But he mainly just threw heavy arm shots and wore out his opponents. He says Gassiev is the hardest puncher he’s ever shared the ring with at 2:25 of this video. Washington wasn’t overly impressed with Wilders power it seems. This content is protected
Briggs also said Vitaly hit harder than Lewis and foreman. He actually said he hit harder than anybody he has ever faced.
Anybody that knows anything about the sport should know you can't rely on a boxer to give you the correct answer on "who hit the hardest". Particularly, those that have been KO'd multiple times. The hardest punches you take in the sport, are the ones you can't feel and don't remember.
Yep I remember that. Supposedly as far as physical strength, Vitali was freakishly strong. Wlad says he’s stronger than him.
Ton of boxers said that so-and-so hit them harder than anyone, even people that knocked them out. Boxers are full of sh**. Look how many people have Shavers as the hardest ever puncher. Totally unjustified.
