Wilder is the heaviest puncher in history that has been world champion.
AJ landing that right hand on Dubois would give Triple D huge problems but I would rather watch that contest than any other this September. I would not be interested in AJ v Parker, Zhang or Whyte.

I am sure the stats show Wilder has the highest percentage KO's of any champion. Big punchers are often one dimensional and limited which he is but that right hand did cause damage.Quote:

Do the stats show how many of those he KO’d were useless cunts?Quote:

Or do the stats show Wilder taking a 3 yard run up and throwing a massive haymaker like you would on a fairground punching machine?
Stats! Fuck me. That’s the sort of shite that Generation Z kids come out with when they rate people like Jake Paul and Cristiano Ronaldo ffs!
What about what you see with your own eyes??
That's some of the hype type stuff that helped get Wilder in trouble in the first place ;D. The late POS Edwin Valero and his 100 percent must go down as the king of the KO then. Funny thing is one is a US heavyweight who was well rewarded off his biggest losses. Literally given a reset button off the Parker schooling like it never happened and one was a pretty obscure lightweight from Venezuela. I can appreciate Wilders all in on the character and selling out for power to a certain point, he was very much his own big-drama show and fans latched on, but hindsight being 20-20 his is also a case of how numbers can be easily manufactured...exactly who had he left flat...and glaring flaws glossed over. Stacking glossy numbers is the name of the game. A lot of chatter about possible next move, even saw some bridgerweight talk :-\ but I really do hope he retires. He's all done now.
deontay's power always seemed overrated to me. there's a reason he targeted tyson on the comeback trail over aj
queensbury over matchroom

Wilder was fun while he lasted. He did give us some great KO highlights we will never forget.
A good and fair article here that sums up Wilder .......

The thing is, AJ dick riders will use this as an excuse to say AJ was better and would have beaten Wilder. But I contend the 2016/2017 Wilder would have knocked AJ spark out. Like he did Fury in the first fight, just that AJ would not have gotten up.Quote:

But Deontay Wilder definitely we all knew the way he hit the deck in the third fight against Tyson Fury would never ever be the same again because a human body just cannot take that sort of pounding and sledgehammering and ever come back to be the same as it was.
Ironically in his two and a half defeats to Tyson Fury we saw the best of him and he was pretty damn good even if he would never be an all-time great.
Wilder has the worse foot work I've ever seen from a HW champ. He keeps his legs wide apart for power. you keep them close together for movement. he keeps his legs wild apart and tries to fight off his back foot. He has never gotten any better over the years. Now he has become a clown a side show. Time to do something else.
Absolutely agree. He has shown really no improvement except in the third fight with Tyson Fury for the first three or four rounds he did show a change in style with those hard jabs to the body. He just didn't stick with it for some reason. But that was the biggest difference I've seen in this guy ever over the course of 10 years and it just only lasted three or four rounds and then he went back to the same stuff. And I hate the way he rubs his wrists and forearms right before he is going to throw a haymaker. That is even worse than telegraphing your punches.
