    So he knocked out a chinny Norton and a 10 fight novice in Young?

    Shavers hasn't got a better ratio than Wilder, where you get that rubbish from?

    Tyson was fighting pumped up CW's on his run for the title and knocked out one or two at most unconscious.

    Imagine Wilder feasting on opponent's lighter than himself, i get shivers thinking about it.

    You excused Wilder "feasting on ham and eggers by saying every champion did so,I pointed out that they weren't doing so 39 fights into their career when they already held titles. You're either wilfully misinterpreting responses from posters to your thread or your mind works differently to others.

    No what I'm saying is when Tyson and co were facing ham and eggers they weren't doing it in the same manner as Wilder. Now i know you might be still flabbergasted by the power of the Bronze Bomber but do try and keep up.

    Most of his opponents are still in a zombified state, best to ask their doctor IMO.

    Tyrell Biggs alone would have given Wilder nightmares

    Wilder, he's found the punch to knockout stop every opponent he faced.

    So did he hit harder when he fought those over the ham and eggers he beat?
