    You talk like Stiverne was knocked out cold. Did you even see the fight? It was a ref stoppage.

    I think he has good power no doubt.


    He just doesnt hit as hard as Wladimir.

    Wilder's freakish power mysteriously diminished as soon as he stopped fighting freakinshly **** opponents. Quite the coincidence.

    stiverne has a great chin and wilder fought smart if he would have went for the ko he could have gotten ko'd himself. smart strategy if you ask me.

    Stiverne was the first quality opponent, they don't go down like C class or less.

    He was able to make Stiverne make chicken dance by just using straight right that Stiverne knew was coming and saw coming. I don't think there is a human being born that could stop Stiverne with a straight right. He has a steel forehead like tank Williams and you are more likely to break your hand than make Stiverne go down by punching straight right at him. The fact that he was able to hurt Stiverne proved to me that Wilder has the power, he'd just need to learn how to hook and upper-cut to be able to ko a rock like Stiverne.

    Surprising about Wilder's performance was his tactical matureness and the ring intelligence he showed by backing and keeping Stiverne at bay with his jab. Excellent performance by Wilder, made me lose 100 euros betting against him, but overall this is refreshing for HW division and it was a very exciting and interesting heavy weight fight for once.

    King was beating him up pretty bad in the corner during the stoppage.

    he has no power because he doesnt have a 100% ko record? sure, history is filled with guys that knocked out everyone they fought.

    Stiverne was stopped on his feet in his stoppage loss, he wasn't KO'd

    He has a good chin

    Wladimir hits harder than Wilder. Been saying that during all the hype.
