The Threat Is Real.... Or Is It? Putting Punching Power Into Its Proper Perspective.

I think the fight with Anthony Joshua showed that Wladimir Klitschko's chin is underrated, he was dropped three times by the biggest puncher in the heavyweight division ( yes he is, deal with it ), but he got up.

Anthony Joshua has knocked out all of his opponents, he knocked out guys who have never been knocked out
before or after the fight with him like Kevin Johnson, Dillian Whyte and Dominic Breazeale.

Nearly all of Wilder's opponents have been knocked out before or after the fight with him multiple times, i have
recently made a thread about this.

Anthony Joshua knocked out Molina within 3 rounds whereas Deontay Wilder needed 9 rounds and Wilder couldn't knock out Stiverne with his best punch landing for 12 rounds.

Even considering that Anthony Joshua's power is overrated is ridiculous whereas Deontay Wilder's power is clearly overrated.

What should he do to convince you that he hits very hard ? Knocking every opponent out ? Well, he did.

Open your eyes, a 250 pound guy who throws punches with perfect technique doesn't hit hard ? Are you sure ?

Start making objective posts and stop pretending to do, you don't seem to like Anthony Joshua but that shouldn't stop you from making reasonable posts.

 

Nobody with a little bit of boxing knowledge said that AJ would destroy Wladimir Klitschko in the first or second
round, Wlad is a great fighter, even at 41 years old and Anthony Joshua only had 18 fights going into the ring
with him, i personally knew that it would be a close fight.

I don't think that AJ's chin is crap, i think it is pretty good, he took hard punches in the 5th round and it is no
shame to get knocked down by the right hand in the 6th round, Wladimir is a tremendous puncher.

 

I personally do not think Anthony is the hardest puncher in the division. He certainly punches very hard but I don't think he has one-punch knockout power. In my opinion, Wlad is the hardest puncher in the division as he has demonstrated one-punch power consistently at the top level. I just haven't seen Anthony take people out the way Wlad has done. Either way, he is still one of the hardest punchers in the division.

 

I didn't count Wlad when i said that AJ is the hardest puncher in the division because he is at the end of his career.
Wlad is the only one i would consider to punch harder than Anthony Joshua.

 

Oh sorry I see what you mean. Fair enough mate.

 

Woah wait one cotton pickin minute.... did you just question the apocalyptic power of the Steamroller????

 

Wlad is a huge puncher, if AJ's chin was crap as you say then the shots Wlad landed should have put his lights out. Vice versa for the people that say wlad has a glass jaw.

You're saying a fighter with a better chin than Wlad will give AJ trouble but how does a better chin somehow make it more difficult for AJ to beat them on the scorecards? The Klitschko fight was pretty even all the way through so surely it would be a fighter with better skills & power than Wlad that would cause AJ more problems than Wlad did...because it wasn't his chin that caused the problems for Joshua?

 

Speaks volumes for Corrie's punch powa

 

Corrie was a monster. Great hand speed, great power. Shame he didn't work a bit harder, he should have achieved more in his career.
