My point is, if Wilder can do this to people with no form or technique, how "powerful" would he be with proper punching technique.
The basis for punching power is (1/2)m*v^2:
m = mass
v = punch velocity
Wilder has more mass than either GGG or Kovalev does. I know there is a lot more to consider, e.g. technique, arm length, leverage, but Wilder has the physical advantages to generate more power.
Arm Length
Kovalev arm length: 72.5"
Wilder arm length: 83"
GGG arm length: 70"
Height
Kovalev: 6'-0"
Wilder: 6'-6"
GGG: 5'-10.5"
Mass
Kovalev: 5.43 lbm (assuming a fight night weight of 175 lbf)
Wilder: 6.21 lbm (assuming a fight night weight of 200 lbf)
GGG: 4.97 lbm (assuming a fight night weight of 160 lbf)
