Breazeale: Getting hit by wilder was like getting hit with a sledgehammer

[oogiebe]

Breazeale finally spoke up and compared Wilder's power to Joshua saying that Wilder hit like a sledgehammer and compared to Wilder, Joshua hit like being slapped by a woman. He also said he could have continued. Delusional.

I think he's an idiot and probably his brains are still scrambled. A bit too dramatic for me.

GRAIN OF SALT: Further reports on this is that the source is actually Blue Blood Sports TV. Not the most reputable.

He was persistently saying that Joshua was head and shoulders ahead of Wilder, prior to their bout. I did feel it was a little premature considering he was yet to share a ring with Wilder.

I think Wilder has greater concussive punching power [than Joshua], but will always struggle against someone who can box.

[marvelous marv]

Fury has basically been saying the same thing. So have alot of sparring partners.

Slaps like a woman?!?

Sounds like the wrong member of the Breazeale family is boxing!

Confims that Wilder is the harder single puncher of the two, but everyone knew that already.

[Enlightened-One]

Breazeale’s comparison of the punching power of Joshua and Wilder is highly-exaggerated and shouldn’t be taken seriously. He’s probably sincere in his belief about ‘The Bronze Bomber’ hitting harder, so that’s all we should take note of.

Anyway, it’s a moot point, because both men carry concussive power and I seriously doubt that AJ would be foolish enough to abandon his superior skills in order to engage in a toe-to-toe slugfest with Wilder. That sort of strategy would be playing into the American's hands.

Even if Wilder hits harder than AJ, Deontay has been hurt far more often than AJ has, against lesser punchers than the Brit. In stark contrast, Anthony Joshua has only ever been hurt by top-tier elite level operators like Dillian Whyte and Wladimir Klitschko… and to a much lesser degree, Alexander Povetkin. Either man can win this fight by KO.

I think Breazeale is demoralized and embarrassed about the result. His comp between Wilder and Joshua are ridiculous. Of course Wilder hit's harder. But AJ is more than powerful enough to stop anyone out there.

..basically he's saying he was TKOed by someone who slaps like a woman? He's certainly raised his stock now..

Is there a vid of it or is this just some Wilder fanboy acting like Breazeale said something he really didn't?

A couple of vids on youtube. I didn't post until there was a second source.

[oogiebe]

Well then post a link, any link of him saying it ??

[oogiebe]

Just look at the coments lol:

"tobi okedairo
WHERE DID BREAZEALE SAID SO , WE KNOW DEONTAY PUNCH HARD .

Phil Richards
Where is your source ? Can’t see any interviews anywhere from Breazeale?"

Sorry, but you're just making a fool out of yourself at the moment.
It's a fairly simple question that I asked but I'll ask it again:

Sure think mr. Lucky Shot.

I don’t think there is any doubt that Wilder has the most power of any currently active heavyweight. His weaknesses are technical in nature, and that will limit his ability to land his punches against the highest echelon. But in terms of one punch power I’d imagine he is well ahead of AJ.

I can not agree, I think their punch power (DW's and AJ's) is very, very close.

It's different. AJ is stronger overall and usually gets the stoppage by accumulation. Wilder's is pure one-punch power. AJ is the better fighter overall as well.

AJ is much more solid as a boxer, whereas Wilder really does through with bad intentions. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a more emotional heavy than Wilder. His passion is for punching you as hard as he can—AJ is more traditional if that makes sense.

IT does actually.

[ValMar]

IT does actually.

I agree, but, please try to rewatch Joshua vs. Klitschko. This upper-cut would dropp the grizzly.

[oogiebe]

I wonder why Breazeale took down all his social media. I think maybe because he's taking this loss very poorly?

wilders the better puncher but the aj = accumulation and wilder = one punch gets exaggerated

wilder accumulated duhaupas, arreola, molina, stiverne 1,, and a tiring ortiz. hes got a fair bit of accumulation too

aj isnt usually needing loads of shots to finish either, brutal knockouts of pov, whyte, molina, etc came pretty much out of nowhere, and the usually durable kj melted right away. and martin took a seat almost instantly but took kows punches no problem

they have 3 common opponents and aj stopped 2 faster

You just can't help yourself.

[jamamb]

its true though, ppl always focus on wilders most brutal kos but he has his fair share of accumulation too, i dont think its a huge gap btwn him and aj
