IS DEONTAY WILDER THE HARDEST PUNCHER FURY HAS EVER FACED?
TYSON FURY has faced some of the toughest opponents in his boxing career, but when it comes to raw punching power, he says DEONTAY WILDER tops the list. Fury, who fought Wilder in three thrilling bouts, admitted that Wilder’s punches were the hardest he’s ever had to endure. Despite being knocked down multiple times, Fury always managed to get back up, but the impact of Wilder’s punches left a lasting impression.
In their first encounter, Fury was out-boxing Wilder until the final round when a massive right hand sent him to the canvas. Just as it seemed the fight was over, Fury shocked everyone by rising to his feet and finishing the fight. Their third fight was equally intense, with Fury hitting the canvas twice. These experiences led Fury to acknowledge the real danger Wilder posed, admitting he feared brain damage after their encounters.
Fury’s recent bout with FRANCIS NGANNOU saw him dropped again, but he quickly clarified that Wilder’s power was on another level. “DEONTAY by far,” Fury said, noting that while Ngannou was strong, he wasn’t troubled by his punches in the same way. Fury explained that it wasn’t just one punch from Wilder but a series of them that left him feeling wobbled.
Looking ahead, Fury’s vulnerability was also exposed when he faced OLEKSANDR USYK. Despite underestimating the Ukrainian before the fight, Usyk dominated most of the rounds. Fury even showed signs of a concussion, which added to the concerns about his health after taking such hard hits. The upcoming rematch on December 21 will be a career-defining moment for Fury as he looks to bounce back from his defeat.
JAKE PAUL has also weighed in, suggesting that Fury needs to be more aggressive in the rematch to have a chance at victory. Whether Fury can recover from his loss and reclaim his place at the top of the heavyweight division remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: the punches he took from Wilder are still on his mind.
