Power wise, which current heavyweights do you rank as great, good, average, below average?

He wobbled Del Boy too.

 

Had Delboy seeing stars while weighing 40 pounds less. Had AJ ready to go in both fights and concussed him so severely in the rematch AJ had a meltdown. Beat up Dubois twice and brutally stopped him the 2nd time. Hurt Fury worse than anyone has ever hurt him before and dropped him.

I think you have to rate a guy's power on when he's throwing full strength. Usyk hardly ever sits on his punches. That's not the way he fights, especially when he's got to be extra careful against all these bigger guys he's in the ring with. When he does sit down on his punches dudes get wrecked. I wouldn't put him up there with Shavers or Foreman or whatever, but he's got very good power when he needs it. If he didn't, these bigger HWs would have just walked him down and got rid of him.

 

Both AJ and Fury landed clean on him - AJ in the 10th of the 2nd fight and Fury in the 5th or 6th or their first time. Appreciate what you're saying about raw power but he's still concussed fighters with one shot. Usyk isn't the only one - Dave Allen also said Fury hit harder than Joshua. So which am I to believe, two fighters that have fought/sparred both have said Fury hits harder, or you?

 

Usyk never had AJ ready to go in the rematch. He didn't even wobble him. I also really doubt he hurt Fury worse than Wilder did in fight 1.

 

AJ was severely hurt in that second fight. He blew his load in Round 9 and then Usyk turned the screw on him. He was stumbling around, trying to lay all over Usyk to stop the action, etc.

Wilder didn't even land a full power right hand on Fury in that 12th round of their first fight. Fury was moving and so Wilder's right hand didn't get full extension. Fury's eyes were open the entire time, which is why Jack Reiss didn't just immediately wave the fight off. Fury gets up, has complete control of his legs, and then proceeds to beat the **** out of Wilder for the rest of the round. Compare that to the 9th round against Usyk. He got hit so hard his face involuntarily went completely stank. He loses all control of his legs and is bouncing around the ring like the DVD logo. The ref literally has to lead him back to his own corner after the bell. Then Fury spends the entire next round covering up and getting beat on because he's so hurt. It's obvious.

Agreed He's a boxer first puncher 2nd... but he can whack for sure.

 

That’s an easy answer, ME!

Allen doesn’t like AJ and likes Fury, that could be why would say something like that.

I sparred both Ruiz and Parker. When I sparred Ruiz we went fairly light, I was cooling down from hard sparring and he was warming up. When I sparred Parker we both had fights coming up so we sparred fairly hard. Parker hit me way harder that what Ruiz did.
So who hits harder, the one that KO’d AJ or the one that lost to AJ? To me it’s Parker, but to be honest, Ruiz never tried to hit me hard and neither tried to hurt me so it’s not really fair to either for me to pick.

I wouldn’t base all my facts on what someone says that have an agenda.
