For his size do you consider AJ to have good power?

    Both AJ and Wilder have similar power but AJs punches are straighter and he will get to fighters quicker, which is why he damages them more. Wilder probably has the better one punch but top fighters can avoid that.
    I think Fatty Stiverne was sent to Mars as well.

    It’s much of a muchness though.

    I think I’d rather be put old cold with 1 than have to take a follow up barrage as well

      Definitely has serious power and would have looked just as devastating as Wilder if he had carried on fighting no marks for 40 fights. I dont think anyone on Wilder's record goes 12 with Joshua, sadly not even Fury.

        Well there are people bigger than Josh and don't hit as hard. Fury don't hit as hard.
        So you can aim the question at anyone! Does Joseph Parker hit hard pfp? Does povetkin?

          his power is massively overrated. Takam was going to the scorecards before that ridiculous stoppage. he didnt hurt parker 1 time...

            Considering he's probably the biggest boxer ever (FFMI based), he's definately not the hardest hitter so there's that

            I find the whole AJ thing hilarious though, there's footage of him shredded at 91KG at the 2012 London Olympics and even back then he's clearly at either peak natural limit or even bigger than what's possible naturally, and now he has gained 20KG of muscle, an amount that most people couldn't gain training specifically for bodybuilding and eating perfectly in 10 years from scratch, nevermind already having a peak physique - it's laughable lol
            He didn't fight at 91kgs in the Olympics, that's a straight lie. He was 225lbs

                Honestly if Joshua hit that hard then Charles Martin wouldn’t have been smiling with clear eyes even after the second knockdown. Flush shots Martin didn’t see coming. I think he hits hard but I wouldn’t call him a massive puncher for a hw.... Seems more like the break you down heavy handed type of punches rather than the one punch power like Wilder.
