        Tyson had devastating power in both hand and could **** 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

              He's not even an average sized LHW anymore. the times have changed.
              So no one before 'modern heavyweights' were elite?

              Spinks was an elite for his time.

                That wasn't really your question.

                Spinks was an elite fighter.

                  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.
