I've said many times that I think that peter's power is very over rated. He clubs at his opponents with sloppy shots. As long as his opponent doesn't offer any movement he lands these shots. However against quality opposition where he has to throw more traditional shots that actually have a chance at landing, his power drops dramatically. Wlad on the other hand I belive is a true puncher, power in both hands and the skills to get it there.
I would say Wlad although Peter seems to have raw power he doesn't deliver it properly or particularly fast like WK does.
I must say I am pleased with the results of the poll. It's good to see that everyone knows the difference between actual power and a hype job
Peter has raw power, but I don't think Peter has nearly the KO power he is purported to have. KOing Williams seems to be the main reason why Peter is seen as such a vicious puncher. But Peter couldn't even take an obese and small Toney off his feet, aside from one KD from a jab due to lack of balance on Toney's part. Wlad probably has more raw power than Peter, and he also has the skills to deliver that power, which is what makes all the difference in if power is effective or not.
Different type of power Wlad has more one shot explosiveness peter is heavy handed and depends on clubbing you
I see Peter's KO percentage drop more as he fights the top 10 HWs... His power is so overrated by nuthuggers... Wlad has the skill to KO anyone and has proven it with all the big names beat...
I picked Wlad to beat Peter in their fight. I believe Wlad has a better offense, hits people with clean punches more often, and will probably end his career with a higher ko percentage. Peter may still have more power on impact.
Klitschko without question. Peter stands out as a rugged kind of guy that lands awkward, unexpected shots, but it's Klitschko's very standard punches that do a great deal of damage.
If you could cull out all those rabbit punches I'm sure Petey would turn into a Sven Ottke type KO artist.
