Deontay Wilder's power

[bballchump11]

Wilder has very underrated timing. The way he lured Ortiz and Spzilka into those right hands were impressive.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

I must admit that I'm not that impressed when I look at Deontay Wilder's oppo on his record.

BUT, the fact that he stopped all of those cats is VERY VERY impressive. Some are bad boyz, like Scott, Ortiz or Stiverne.

I wanted to talk about D power, and from where this power comes from.
I don't think D is the most powerfull HW in the game, Joshua might have more power IMO, from the eye test.

Yet D is the most dangerous HW in the game.

Here is why IMO

His reach/leverage, his awkard angles, his speed, his thin knuckles, his will to kill his oppo and the way he (over)loads his punches are all those x factors wich multiplies his power by X and makes of D one of the most dangerous HW all time.

That dude is a straight killer ala Saddler or Tommy Hearns.

The sad thing is this ability to ko his opponents led him to neglect his skills, especially his defense.

The weird thing is Deontay get sometimes outboxed but he never really get hit CLEAN, he always see the punches coming up with his size advantage, dude got a sharp eye.

-Stiverne is garbage. He was never a top 5 heavyweight. Never even a top 10 heavyweight in my opinion (and if he was, that says bad things about the division in general). He would have lost to AJ, Wladimir, Povetkin, Fury, Ortiz, and the list goes on. Probably would have lost to Parker and Whyte as well, and of course I'm talking before the second Wilder fight.
-Scott obviously took a dive/quit.
-Ortiz is old, and Wilder had extra long recovery with that doctor checkup and all, which was bull**** in my opinion. I have never seen that happen in any major fight.

Wilder has great power, for sure, but his opponents are complete garbage. Is there anyone on his resume you wouldn't see a guy like George Foreman or Mike Tyson stopping?

Also, Wilder is apart of the new breed of heavyweight that seems to be rising in popularity this era. What I prefer to call a, "Super Heavyweight".

I've seen the ref check happen in another fight in NY. Can't remember what the fight was though. For some reason I'm thinking it was a Thurman fight...but I'm likely way off.

Its a myth that he loads up. Straight right 5th round against Ortiz was untelegrapged from the hip

You can clearly see the hip movement here.

It's pretty much obvious that Wilder loads up a lot, starting with the windmills.

SCott was a bad boy? Fat, ill, retired Stiverne?

The only impressive win on his resume is Ortiz and it took him ages to stop him.

His power is real but lets not start this useless hype. Plus he starts far too slow.

Like I said, beating Stiverne isn't something crazy, but to stop a solid block like him in few minutes is impressive.

I said myself his resume isn't impressive at all.

Beating Scott and Stiverne isn't impressive but the way he stopped them was.

[DuckAdonis]

No he has the most power in the division for sure....he just lacks alot of fundamentals. But he does stuff his own way and it works for him, like how he baited Ortiz in for that counter right hand that basically ended the fight, was impressive to me.

[Kagami Taiga]

I don't see how anyone can **** on this guy's power. It's definitely the real deal.

[boliodogs]

He is a hard puncher for sure although I fail to understand the value of thin knuckles for hard punching. I think the speed of his punches is why they are so hard. AJ also has a near perfect KO record. I wouldn't compare him with Saddler or Hearns. They hit with great power and defeated much better opponents than Wilder has ever fought. Hearns and Saddler threw beautiful perfect punches. Wilder throws fast hard punches and sometimes almost by accident he throws a correct punch. Often he throws some of the widest, wildest horrible looking slop I have ever seen a world champion boxer throw.
