Comments Thread For: Sparring Partner: Wilder Hits Much Harder Than Joshua, Klitschko

[Noelanthony]

Oh you can’t debate Wilder punches the hardest that is a title that he owns without question. Nobody can take that away from him. However that big for nothing Oath Towers..... he hits 5 times harder than Joshua.... 4 times harder than Klitschko, 8 times harder than Fury. Unbelievable . He must be dating Wilder’s sister or his cruiserweight brother😜

Whenever you compare a heavy, or any boxer's punching power to others, people get all fired up because they say it can't be true....stepping on toes of guys they worship. Its a waste of time saying it.

That being said, sparring partners have a better handle on it than fans do though. Lets just say he hits the hardest, and leave it at that.

Good read. Non judgmental guy, gives props to all of the fighters. Fury is going to have to step up his mind games. Wilder doesn't seem to rattle too easily, though.

Non judgemental?? I have never in the history of boxing heard a fighter give a multiplication summary of the power of his sparring partners. It was funny though admittedly ( x8 for Fury , no respect for the lineal)

Lucas Browne retired him in late 2013 by KO, in the fight Towers was trying to outbox on the backfoot but couldn't keep him away with his jab, crazy watching at 6'8" him not plant his feet and use his power in that fight. It seemed like he was scared from previous sparring to me(commentator mentioned they sparred previously).

During 2010 - 2014 he travelled and shared many camps (David Haye, Klitsckho etc

Browne KO'd him and he realised he wasn't world class and just didn't make a comeback.

He's like 39 now and is a boxing coach so probably no comeback (actually had a 6 rounder then retired) which is a shame I felt he could of been a contender but he must of knew from sparring in top HW camps that he wasn't an elite boxer. Seems to be doing good work as a coach nowadays so good luck to him but I trust his opinion with regards to Wilder's power.

Towers: Lucas Browne x6 before the fight

Towers: Lucas Browne x2 after the fight

If he's 39 now, eddie hearn will probably be trying to get him to fight aj. Aj loves fighting the frail old folk

I guess my question is, how in the hell did this sparring partner quantify it like this? He was like four, five, six, eight; WTF? He could have just said I rank their power in this order, Wilder, Vitali, Wladimir, Joshua, & Fury. His dumb ass actually sat in a dark corner with some weed and thought about that sh@t....GTFOH...LOL!!!!

“Put it this way: He hits FOUR times harder than Vitali Klitschko, he hits FIVE times harder than Wladimir Klitschko, he hits SIX times harder than Anthony Joshua, and he hits EIGHT times harder than Tyson Fury.”

Seems like all those big punches got him punch drunk

I hope fury reads this. At least he knows what s he's in for then.

[FairPlay]

This guy did the math. All those punches in the head from top heavyweights must have made him a math genius.

I'm just wondering if he sounded like the count from sesame street when he gave this interview 🤔
