The winning weapon for Wilder was not the power right it was the jab to the body, Fury had no answer Wilder abandoned it to bomb and paid the price, that body jab when timed right disrupts the opponent's rhythm in its tracks, Floyd was a master of it, it could have won Wilder the fight or at least survive it, he stopped using it when he should have used it the most.Comment

Beating a guy who started boxing as an adult and has a very limited grasp on the fundamentals of the sport does not prove anything. Especially after already knocking him out before. It proves what anybody who has been a long time follower of the sport already knew. Which is just cause you can dish it out does not mean you can take it. Big punchers often have glass jaws is the revelation. I guarantee that if Deontay Wilder continues on with his career; and that is a BIG IF, he will get knocked out again a few more times. And his final fight in his career will be a knockout loss. So if he calls it quits now his career will end with a knockout loss and if he continues on he will keep getting knocked out until he finally does call it quits. He’s been exposed and everybody just witnessed it. Tyson Fury has some knockout losses coming in his near future too. Difference is that he knows it. He doesn’t necessarily believe the hype that people are trying to make over him beating an extremely limited Deontay Wilder. So he might be able to avoid getting what he’s got coming.,Comment

Well not really. The fighters I listed were all flat footed, they were rarely on their toes. But if you want an example of great defensive fighters who were on their toes and transitioned into power punches seamlessly heres a list that immediately comes to mind, Ali before rope a dope, Roy Jones Jr, Young Mike Tyson, Joe Frasier, Chavez Sr, Hector Camacho. Admittedly Tyson and Chavez Sr were not "great" defensive fighters, but there ability to bob and weave through their opponents punches to get close enough to land their own shots, with out taking much damage was definitely elite.Last edited by KnickTillDeaTh; 10-11-2021, 07:28 PM.Comment
