    If Joe Parker is the bigger puncher in a fight and walloping you all over the ring then it is fair to say that you are not a powerful puncher.

    He boxed Helenius a year before Parker and two years before Zhang. Yes he was done, and he was also up against superior boxers.

    They are also not good fights to try to prove a point about his power. Did you see the Parker and Zhang fights? He barely landed a glove on them. I just checked and he only landed 39 punches against Parker and 16 against Zhang and nothing significant landed. So neither fight is appropriate to try to make the point you are making.

    To any reasonably objective boxing fan it was painfully obvious he was totally finished in both fights. When he knocked out Helenius he did it round 1 by landing a short right hand on the back foot. I cba going back and forth on this discussion. If you don’t think his power was great that’s fine. The evidence clearly doesn’t back you up and it’s totally against consensus boxing opinions anyway.

    And it’s his power I’m referring to. We all know he was a shite boxer.

    You are coming across as the type of boxing fan who thinks Marvelous Marvin is a custard doughnut

    Your words and not mine. A silly assumption.

    When he fought world class fighters who weren't 55 his power didn't bail him out. I do wonder why.

    Follow the colours in the results column and you may be able to see the great trilogy with Fury that every boxing fan enjoyed and that completely finished Wilder along with age.

    https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/468841

    There is no way anyone is coming back to boxing at 38 years of age, after fighting only 1 round in 2 years and beating any live fighter. Washed Up Wilder was retired and it is sad that these finished old men are used as punchbags in return for loot.

    If you don't agree, contact Mr Carl Froch from Nottingham and ask him what Rob McCracken said to him when he was considering a comeback 12 months after defeating Groves at Wembley.

    I just see can after can after can. As i previously mentioned i could name a few men in the divison below and a few in the same division who would have had the exact same amount of stoppages.

    That was post-ahayuasca Wilder after mother gaia had excorcised the demons. He left a part of himself in the peruvian jungle for good.

    You are making as many excuses as Deontay himself.

    That's literally what ahayuasca does bro, it exorcises demons. Wilder is a man at peace since.

    That’s it. Or when at the end of rocky balboa (I think) when the scores are being read out and Rocky is walking back to the changing room and he says “the basement is cleared“ or somesuch.

    Wilders ancestral demons clearly and demonstrably left him after Fury III
