    The likes of Tyson might have more spectacular KO´s but he was faster and so his opponents had less chance to roll/avoid his punches.

    Comparing punches landed flush, Klitschko´s right has more power than any other punch ever IMO.

    hmm maybe not. Foreman. Lewis. Shavers all spring to mind as huge punchers with simelar size to Wlad and Foreman was slow as fuk you could see his punches a mile off and hed still KTFO his opponents.


    Wlad grinds his opponents down over time his right hand is a great punch but his best shot is his jab - it completly shuts down opponents

    Haye has a solid chin.

    I agree, Lewis and Foreman are contenders. Which punches though? Lewis uppercut?

    If it was, Haye wouldn't have taken that right hand many times and walked it off. Haye wasn't hurt, wobbled, knocked down or even remotely close to being stopped, and he did take some clean punches.

    Wlad's power is overrated. How many right hands did he land against Rahman for example? Would he have been able to soak up punishment from Foreman or Shavers? Of course not.

    Uppercut or straight right were both huge punches

    Tua's left hook was a more devastating punch, he had brutal power

    I like the Klitschko's and many other boxers, but as a fan of Wlad's I have to say you are delusional! Enough said!

    Waste of time discussing this. All of these men - Foreman, Wlad, Lewis, Tua, Tyson - had enough power to KO any HW in history if they land clean.

    Does it really matter if Tua hit harder than Foreman? I mean seriously.
