    Just remembered Eduard Troyanovsky is sitting at 88% KOs, Errol Spence is at 86% KOs, and Dmitry Kudryashov is at 95%.

    That don't mean nothing until the level of opposition steps up.

    So why are you pushing Wilder? He's fought more corpses than The Walking Dead.

    Wilder fought who he was supposed to fight. At no time has an opponent called Wilder out and he ducked them, like Golovkin has done on numerous occasions.

    Don't blame Wilder for the Russian's fear that drove him to OD on PEDs and f'up the fight.

    None of the other top heavyweights in his division have called him out, Povetkin aside, cause that's a whole other kettle of fish. But neither has he called any of them out. Another man's cowardice does not make one brave.

    But this wasn't about who is ducking who. Both Golovkin and Wilder's KO records are astronomically inflated do to their sub par opposition. However, I'm confident that both hit reasonably hard.

    Wilder has fought nothing but winos who can fight at all.................he ran from Povetkin, came crying to the WBC begging them to cancel the fight, so WADA and the WBC framed Povetkin, later cleared Povetkin. In the meantime, Wilder have been fighting voluntary fights against more winos, Wilder's next fight will be his 5th title defense in a row! That is a record...............

    Kovalev's punches are shorter, much more powerful that Wilders, definitely hits P4P the harder of the two and can deliver those punches, also fights much better opposition, Wilder has to swing his punches from left field, telegraphs his punches. Wilder will never fight a legit fighter.................

    You are missing the genius of GGG power and if it was no frills he would have been figured out by now but alas that has not happened, even the slick as teflon fighter Brook couldn't avoid it. He is always in a position to throw a power shot as is Kov, where as Wilder is a haymaking machine that just throws bombs , David Hay would slip his shot and land three on Wilders Chin, I I rate Wilder and don't think that anyone will stand up to a flush shot but his wild and off balance most of the time .

    How do you know Wilder begged for the fight to get cancelled and the WBC framed Pov? Please provide a link that states as much. If you want to assert a truth, first make sure it's not an opinion that you desperately want to be true!

    Wilder is a HW, Kovalev is a LHW.

    Kovalev has far better technique and timing but Wilder has the lbs. I'll take Wilder.

    Wilder needs to fight somebody that can punch back.

    Somebody like, oh, I don't know, his MANDATORY, Povetkin.

    wbc do not care for fighters not champion or ranked 1
    they will let divisions stagnate and be manipulated and whatever eles.
    they do care though about boxers diets and the intake of to many energy drinks

    Well he's been cleared now, so Wilder must be licking his lips to finally get to grips with Povetkin.
