Everybody says Fury can't hit hard but I disagree. The guy has a gigantic anatomy compared to other heavyweight giants. His upper torso is so big, I am 100% sure he is the most powerful heavyweight ever. He is impossible to grab. Even his pitty pat punches are enough to knock out an average heavyweight. Look at what he has done to Wilder's ear. Fury's secret is his power. Only a very skilled boxer who can hit him in the face with combinations can beat this giant. Maybe it is Kownacki.
Usually a Tall men have a very hard time converting their leverage into KO power, the hardest punching males P4P are usually 5'05" ~ 5'11", with 5'10" being the peak height for KO power in boxing Going by lowest division weight Boxers who had One punch KO power can build this database 1.51 --- 178cm/118lbs Carlos Zarate 1.48 ---175cm/118lbs Sandy Saddler 1.40 --- 165cm/118lbs Naoya Inoue (hydrating era) 1.26 --- 185cm/147lbs Thomas Hearns Then above 185cm this ratio drops much further, at Heavyweight the average boxers punched as hard as Thomas Hearns, just with better Chin/Strength. 1.00 --- 200cm/200lbs Deontay Wilder at is the hardest puncher of all time, but obviously not P4P Tyson Fury fought a smart fight & was able take away the range from Deontay Wilder, turned the fight into a wrecking dog-fight an unfavorable situation for the slicker streamlined Long Range bomber. A lighter Deontay Wilder coming in at his natural weight 210s will have the proper energy/speed to utilize his KO power, more than he did at the much heavier 231 lbs, that said Tyson Fury is definitely the best boxer of all time, mainly due to his size-frame & high ring IQ. Deontay Wilder will have to KO Tyson Fury as an underdog, Tyson Firy biggest advantage is his height-frame, not his weight. Deontay Wilder advantage is the KO power, which is best at his high stamina weight (not 231)
There's been some dark side gypsy magic being placed on Deontay. Like that Stephen King film Thinner. But the curse is in reverse, Deontay is gaining weight not losing it. I hope the bomb squad ambush the gypsy carnival and take them out mafia style like in that film!
He is physically the strongest heavyweight his bones are crazy dense he can rag doll anyone and he also can punch hard
He's always had power, he's just rarely utilised it. I think he has pretty heavy hands but he doesn't have the speed and snap to stun you that quicker punchers have. He obviously isn't the hardest puncher around but if he hits you enough he'll stop you. Chisora can attest to that after their 2nd fight. Not many men could make a guy with Chisora's heart and will to win, just quit.
He is not that strong, let not get too carried away. He didn't win just on pure brute strength. He won it with baàaxing IQ. Klitschko was holding his own in clinches Vs fury. Wlads problem is he's too top heavy, man has chicken legs.
Look how a body shot blew Wilder onto his hand and knees. Wlad couldn't move him back an inch and he's meant to be the Clinch Doctor. When he's not weight drained he's very strong and has deceptive power. . I don't think Wilder expected his hands to be as heavy as they were.
I thought about that too. I was shocked to see Fury grabbing Wilder and leaning on him. Looked like Klitschko leaning on Povetkin back then. I know Fury is taller, but Wilder is no midget. It seemed like 2 different weight classes fighting lol. Fury has strong punches indeed and in every kind of variation. 1-2 combo, jab, hooks to the body, everything seemed to shake Wilder this night. One knockdown came from a left hook to the body!
