Who hit harder? Corrie Sanders or Earnie Shavers

According to "Ring Magazine's list of 100 greatest punchers of all time" SRR hit harder than Tyson. :nut

 

Don't matter Corrie is no where on that list !

 

Hold on, is this question actually serious?

 

I rest my case.

 

You haven't grasped the concept of P4P yet, have you? There's a reason for The Ring not calling this list "top 100 list of greatest punching heavyweights of all time".

 

I have a good understanding of P4P concept. There is a medical term for it. It is called "small ***** syndrome".

 

Shavers is typical American Baloney. He has just one good win , over a somewhat faded Ken Norton who was KOd by almost everybody and hardly rock-solid.
Still Shavers is mentioned with Tyson in the same sentence, just crazy.

 

:deal

 

"******s" because we acknowledge the fact that Sanders hit hard as hell? You know what don't even answer that. What am I doing! Lol

FJAY360-PFP the top douchebag in ESB and quite possibly the most ignorant. :roll:

 

OK, but does he hit harder than Earnie Shavers?

 

The same Shavers who was KO in 1 round by Iron Jerry Quarry? Hehehe...

 

exactly, it's like voting Amir Khan over Meldrick Taylor for the fastest boxer just because you believe Khan is fast.

 

And his best wins are what? Wlad and....... Carlos DeLeon? atsch

 

I view Sanders power in the same way as kendall Holt's. Their record may not indicate a load of power but both men punch MUCH harder than their respective records say.

 

If he hit as hard as people say he does, he would have had a much better record. He had a good punching technique and a good chin. That with the power some are suggesting he had, would have been ensure to ensure victories over bigger names.

As for the fighters on his record, I know a couple of the guys he didn't stop. He didn't stop Steve Zouski, who Foreman knocked out in 4 rounds on his comeback trail. He didn't stop Mike Rouse, who Chris Byrd stopped in 6 rounds and Razor Ruddock brutally battered in a single round. He didn't stop Mike Evans, who Frank Bruno knocked out in 2. I'm sure you could do a more thorough analysis but those are just the names I know of.

Seeing as I've already mentioned them, I don't think Sanders hit as hard as Bruno or Ruddock. Obviously not Foreman either. He was just a stiff, fast puncher who caught people off guard.
