It’s not that skills dont matter but it just doesnt matter as much at HW like in the lower weight divisions.

Wilder throws a decent jab. I think we got spoiled watching lighter weight classes that provide us with technique and skill and less knockouts. The bigger the fighter typically the less skillful. You will never see a Mayweather in the heavyweights. It’s like basketball. The WNBA have women’s shooting lights out. But you’re not gonna get the power you get from Shaq. Hope this makes some sense.
Also I saw a thread in which someone quoted Lampley “ that what heavyweights are suppose to do”.

Maybe it's time that we acknowledge that Wilder has skills?
