i cant think of anyone

AJ carried power to the end with Takem, in that last round he seemed to get a second wind, like he did in the 11th with Wlad.

Obviously impossible to tell, but any banger can pull a late KO out of a hat. Wilder has done it twice now; Spzilka and Ortiz. The guys got power through the full fight, but that's not necessarily rare unless we're talking punchers with poor stamina like Morrison or Herbie Hide.

Both Wilder and AJ keeps their power until the end of the fight like Wladimir Klitschko and David Tua did before. It seems pretty weird to me that Lennox Lewis never stopped anyone if the fight went past 8 rounds, because most heavyweight champions scored late-rounds KOs.

Wlad had stamina issues earlier in his career that he addressed later on after they costs him a few times.

Bivol obviously showed good late round power today as well with his 12th round win over Sullivan Barrera.

Best example I can remember is Felix Trinidad's TKO12 over Fernando Vargas after Vargas had him in trouble earlier in the fight. That fight was also a battle of unbeatens!!

Shannon Briggs knocking out Liakovich on the last second of the fight while having a terrible stamina was another one good example.

Yes, and Gassiev too

For the heavyweights, Tyson Fury seems to be just as good in the first round as in the last round, not sure if he still is.
Wilder seems to have the same, no further degradation after the third round.


Stylewise I think Ortiz should have clinched more often and lean on him, that might have helped, but Wilder got a long range and a good single punch, so most boxers prefere to stay on distance and that's part of the reason why Wilder never seems to get tired.
I think Wilder could get in trouble against someone like Miller if Miller uses such a style.
I'm really glad Wilder finally stood up.
