Wilder's Power On a Historical Scale

Look obviously he has a fantastic right hand but he's not exactly been bowling over Holyfields, Tuas, McCall's, vitalis has he

His best kos have come against guys who are known to be chinny, and Duhaupas took an insane amount of flush hits from him and was stopped more due to exhaustion. Also molina took a lot from him when the first power shot Joshua landed ended him.

But I'm not going to say he doesn't have legit power but I don't think it'd be enough against the likes of the names I mentioned at the start of this post.

 

I think Adamek was pound for pound better than Wilder, and in his prime could have decisioned Wilder without much problem at heavyweight. As for Arreola I still think he has more one punch power than Wilder if he connects.

 

Fury gets laid out cold, and goes back in to obscurity by the 7th round. But this is what I said before he faced Wlad.......

 

I said the same thing a few months ago lol. Same exact lanky frame and power someone made in fight night then made hearns a heavyweight in the custom menu. Better chin, but way less skill.

 

While i agree we need to see more results against better competition to grade his power compared to hitters of the past, expecting him to ko vitali/holyfield/tua chin level guys is kind of silly when the atg punchers of those guys era couldnt ko them either.

If wilder does manage to retire with a 90+% ko rate and cleans out his division, we cant simply ignore that. Lets see how his power fares against fury and joshua, thatll clear up a few questions.

 

It's already been explained, and established as to why Ajagba's opponent walked out on that day. Please do your research.

It was not intimidation.

 

Look, modern day sports science technology has given us the platform to gather all the metrics we need.

Just round up the boys, and get them on the striking meter that UFC's Nganou and K-1's Tyrone Spong have already used!

The punch power metrics will give us a fair indication!
