Who do you think has more raw power Wilder or Tyson?

Tyson hands down. Wilder's advantage is his height and reach. Tyson's power came from leverage and torque close in. If you consider the size differential between the two guys, Tyson really demonstrated significant power against much larger opponents.

A former light heavy weight? That wasn't really your question. Spinks was an elite fighter.

Spinks would get knocked stiff by modern heavyweights. He's not even an average sized LHW anymore. the times have changed. So no one before 'modern heavyweights' were elite? :thinking: :lol1: Spinks was an elite for his time.

Tyson had devastating power in both hand and could bang the head and body. Wilder only has power (freakish power) in the right hand. How often has Wilder hurt someone with a left hook? When has he ever gone to the body? Yes he has less weapons than Tyson Yes he has less skills than Tyson Yet he’s had a long reign than Tyson and into his 30’s because he has a more potent power punch. THe single greatest weapon in boxing history

When Wilder fights the level of competition Tyson did than talk about it. Wilder's best win is a 38 year old Ortiz, Didn't Tyson knock out Larry Holmes who was 38 in 3 rounds ? I'm not talking about who ko'ed better fighters I'm talking pop for pop who has the more god given ko power.

Two years inactive and coming from losses I was sure you talking about Stiverne. I was talking about Holmes

Where and when did I ever mention Stiverne? Please show me Two years inactive and coming from losses I was sure you talking about Stiverne.

You deluded clown now tell me Stiverne is better than Holmes, go on I dare you. Where and when did I ever mention Stiverne? Please show me

In 1988 he was coming off of 2 losses and almost a 2 year layoff and how was he the 2nd best heavyweight in history?? he fought in a horrible era You deluded clown now tell me Stiverne is better than Holmes, go on I dare you.

Yes, second best heavyweight champion in history was fat and old at the age of 38 but Luis Ortiz was slim and in his prime at the age of 39. You retarded Wilder nuthuggers are all pathetic :D In 1988 he was coming off of 2 losses and almost a 2 year layoff and how was he the 2nd best heavyweight in history?? he fought in a horrible era

Tyson had 20 fights against top TEN rated fighters AND he had TEN fights against top THREE rated opponents in HIS era . Wilder has a guy named Stiverne and Ortiz (only credible opponent ), TEN years later ! :yeah: lol That's why we watch and analuze fights so we know who's actually good, because rankings are very flawed.

please spare me the h0 mo talk im a boxing fan not a nut hugger, I actually am an AJ fan as well. and hell yes Tyson was better than wilder I prefer Tysons style over Wilders but Tysons resume is a bit overhyped. Fair enough.

It's pretty funny though when people rail on Tyson for beating up bums but now when Wilder is involved, suddenly these guys are elite or really good! Make up your minds.

He's not even an average sized LHW anymore. the times have changed. You took the hyperbole to another level. Spinks was listed at 6'2 1/2.

Wilder nuthugger like you actually admits that Tyson is better? What the hell happened here. please spare me the h0 mo talk im a boxing fan not a nut hugger, I actually am an AJ fan as well. and hell yes Tyson was better than wilder I prefer Tysons style over Wilders but Tysons resume is a bit overhyped.

nobody is insinuating Ortiz is better than holmes or even comparing them, holmes was past it but was still a decent fight and win for Tyson. but to act like Tyson fought all these top HWs is an overstatement, u guys are too much its not even worth a debate Wilder nuthugger like you actually admits that Tyson is better? What the hell happened here.

Technique ADDS to power . Once again you have only reinforced my stance . Who has Wilder fought again if we are using YOUR criteria to determine hardest hitter ? The hard truth is any boxing knowledgeable fan is not going to pick Wilder based on his career so far against a technical ,fast and stylistically hook puncher like M.Tyson . If you dont like the fact that a more logical view suggests Tyson hits harder ,why are you even on the thread if Tyson IS the topic only to complain about who hes fought ? Did Larry give you a bad batch ,heard thats going around ?..lol lol ok man u win lolol the bad batch got me

Was Holmes not old and flabby??? was Spinks not a career light heavy weight with only 5 heavyweight fights? Yes, second best heavyweight champion in history was fat and old at the age of 38 but Luis Ortiz was slim and in his prime at the age of 39. You retarded Wilder nuthuggers are all pathetic :D
