    Deontay Wilder's Punching Power

    Hasn't been tested yet, and it's too early to say, but let's just entertain a hypothetical for a moment.

    Where does his right hand rank against the likes of Foreman, Louis, Shavers, etc. Not talking about how short his punches are or technically-sound, because his technique is terrible. I'm talking about raw power. Where does he sit all-time?

      We obviously can't even begin to compare his power to guys like that because hes never knocked anyone out that was even 1/10th of the calibre fighter that these guys used to KO.

      Sure he MAY actually have that kind of power and be able to KO top fighters like he does lesser guys, but we dont know until we SEE IT

        Oh I don't think it's fair to say his power hasn't been tested. . . I think he could knock anyone out, that's quite obvious, but he hasn't been up against a skilled fighter, and from what I've seen of him he relies heavily on the right hand

        I think as a boxer he hasn't been tested, he hasn't fought anyone elite yet, but I do also believe his power is enough to put anyone way if he can catch them.

          That's what I think. We've seen what he's done to low level fighters and very old veterans.
          I think he has a bazooka of a right hand that's dangerous if it lands. Now... somebody in their late 20's or early 30's who's experienced.... that's when it gets interesting.

          I wouldn't mind a Tor Hamer fight as an interim fight before Arreola/Mitchell winner

                    He's built kind of like Lennox Lewis, tall, long arms and good speed for a big guy. Emanuel Steward would've been the ideal trainer for him, but he should get Lennox as a second trainer to work with Mark Breland.
