    I think potentially Wilder could be one of the hardest hitting Heavyweights of all time.

    But I just want to see him beat a few noteworthy opponents first.

    Beating Joshua would be a great scalp for him as would someone like Ruiz who has a good chin and never been stopped.

    Thats fair enough but I am not really taking into account a boxer’s defensive capabilities here or their ability to evade a punch etc.

    I’m looking at it from the perspective of how devastating the punch is once its landed on the opponent. And when Wilder lands, its like anlight switch on:eek:ff.

    When other power punchers lands, yeah it hurts and the opponent is down or takes a knee… but the effect is not as devastating as Wilders. Like the difference between a KO and a TKO

    I consider all these other p4p punchers to be TKO class versus Wilders KO class

    Crawford doesn’t hit harder than Inoue or Tank.

    Yeah will be interesting to see and would answer a lot of questions because I actually rate Joshuas chin. Its been tested by
    Elite power punchers like Povetkin, Wlad, Ruiz, Whyte and he held up well for the most part. Never out cold. And they say power is the last thing to go…

    Not seen Wildwr against many short fighters like Ruiz so will be interesting to see if Wilder can land on a short fighter

    Not as much as I used to be, disappointed with his performance against Fury. This new drug scandal, third time. And he got a bit arrogant cocky last few years.

    Still rate his story on his way up the rankings as a guy who grinded hard against guys with 4 or 5 times level of experience.

    Crawford is one of the most underrated punchers of the last 40 years.
