He appears to be a sluuger but watching his most recent fight against helenius and early fights before he became a champion he appeared to be more like an out-boxer. What his boxing style is he a slugger, out-boxer or both ?
What boxing style does Deontay Wilder really have ?

Not sure if it's by design or not but Wilder is basically a counter-puncher with hellish power. His workrate is low but also incredibly sporadic with his attack. -

Wilder is not a slugger, you cannot be a slugger without a developed inside game.
Wilder predominately fights from mid-long range. Wilder's style of fighting and power is least effective, the more his opponent closes the range.
Wilder tries in all honesty to be a boxer puncher. But due to his technical skills not really being elite or even world level? Things become chaotic.
Deontay Wilder does have a solid jab, but apart from that? Skill for skill his pure technical boxing ability is not elite.
Overall Wilder is a boxer puncher, who does not have elite level skills. But he has elite level power, extreme gameness and resolve.
I still rate Deontay Wilder extremely highly as a fighter.
