Deontay Wilder’s Boxing Secrets: The Real Heavyweight Punching Kingpin Unveiled
Two stops have come for Deontay Wilder.
In the ring with Tyson Fury, Luis Ortiz, and Bermane Stiverne, among others, Deontay Wilder has fought a lot of formidable opponents.
With only one loss coming to Fury, the former WBC champion is undoubtedly one of the toughest punchers to have faced in the ring. In response, the answer is no.
2015 saw Wilder travel to Alabama for his second defence of the world title against Johann Duhaupas of France, and after 11 rounds, he was stopped.
In spite of being the more dominant fighter throughout the bout, Wilder has acknowledged Duhaupas’ striking power. His power wasn’t used until much later in the fight.
As he was having trouble recalling Duhaupas’ name, Wilder admitted to Talksport, “I would have to say the Frenchman.”
That’s Johann Duhaupas, that’s all. That was the toughest blow I have ever taken in my professional life.
