    Means nothing. Although it did make me chuckle when i saw Wilder fans making vids on Youtube talking about how Wilder now had the higher percentage before they had checked to see if they were right. They felt Wilders percentage should be higer than Joshua's because they were more eye catching.

    Yes. There’s a case to be made Joshua’s an equally if perhaps not more effective puncher, but Wilder is clearly capable of producing more power with a single punch.

    What better opponents? Had Wilder beat Whyte and Parker they would be known as bums around here

    Speculative yes, but based on their past performances I think it’s a more than a reasonable claim. Even if they did hit a pressure sensor it wouldn’t change the fact Wilder has been shown to be capable of delivering more damage with one shot at this point in his career, it’s a static homogenous target, the information gleaned from it is hardly relevant in the context of boxing.

    Just bc one MAY hit harder with one punch doesn't make them the best knock out fighter.

    All the talk about Wilders power ,all the while Joshua has ability to hurt better fighters and is a better finisher then Wilder .

    Joshua isn't a reckless boxer,hes going set up careful power shots ,these are usaually very held back shots that disguise the big punch and if need be that ending combo of power shots,just like Povetkin fight.


    TO THIS DAY,,,Joshua's one shot K.O of Whyte is far better then Wilders fights bc Szpilka is not Whyte level fighter.

    What it comes down to is who actually left guys flat on their back when the fight ended with RANKED top guys ?

    Common sense would tell anyone AJ is the K.O king not wilder.

    Come off it, Wlad, Povetkin and Parker all have much better resumes than Wilders best win in Ortiz (who's only notable win are Jennings and Hammer).

    Its that percentage that made the last fight look easy. Had that fight gotten out of round 3 it could've been an entire different type of fight. Wilders most dangerous in the early rounds when starting fast . Its a reason making guessing work with him is easy as it is hard. You don't know what tempo he will set if he's able to . Based on Ortiz last fight I would bet Wilder gets the actual 5th round stoppage this time.

    Joshua's KO rate is 21/22=0.955.
    Wilder's KO rate is 40/42=0.952.
