Nah Wilder has the one shot but AJ is a harder pumcher
Wilder is suspectible to knocking you out at any moment. Aj dont strike fear like that. His one shot which is that right arm missile is probably the hardest/strongest shot in boxing history.


Now i do agree that Aj will break you down overtime better than Wilder. Wilder didnt even need boxing fundamentals to make a decent career in boxing. Thats how hard his punch is.

Fury should have won this fight easily. He took 3 rounds to properly assess Usyk and by then, his uppercut was landing at will on top of doing efficient body work.

He was also using his size well, which is clearly his best asset. Usyk was clearly flustered by that, you could see he was trying things to break the distance and most were not working as he was finding a stiff arm or an uppercut on the way in. Also Fury moved superbly at that point.

But maybe it was his strategy, overconfidence, or him just being him, he slowed down by round 5 and by round 6, Usyk was landing his cross and even managed to pop his nose.
It's the pace usyk pushes. It will take even hardened men off their game. He was constantly in his face which may not seem like much but trust me it's no joke. invested to the body early, cut off the ring. We gotta remember fury is 260 which he has good conditioning that weight is hard to ignore. At least AJ had that power to keep usyk somewhat off and usyk was still on him constantly. Fury moved more than he did in a lot of recent fights and got them SpongeBob looking legs tested. Usyk old school
