    Why Deontay Wilder hit so hard despite being a light and skinny heavyweight?

    He is literally one of the smallest in weight Heavyweight contenders ?

    he done some black magic sucking out strength and power from his legs and put em in his arms...that explains why his legs gave in when he put that ring walk costume on. his legs are only meant for twerking.

      Same reason Hearns hit so hard.That right hand on Wilder is useless if you keep him backing up which fury did in second fight.

          Why does a whip hurt when it is so skinny?

            1. He knows how to generate leverage with his long limbs and looping shots
            2. He has the guts to throw with reckless abandon, knowing he'll take some shots in return and often look ****** by missing wildly and throwing himself off balance

              He's not that small. He also has good height and long limbs. He also windmills.

                He looks pretty ripped up so he has strength going for him but more importantly he just knows how to deliver a solid punch with great form. Remember Morgan Freeman's line in Million Dollar Baby? It's not how hard you hit them, it's how GOOD you hit them
