The best finisher in heavyweight history

Fitz, Langford, Dempsey, Louis, Marciano, Tyson

 

All good choices.:good

 

Thanks mcvey.

 

Tyson for sure!!..When I think of HW's that once they had you in trouble you were done!

Frazier..Never seen ANYONE recover from that left hand without getting dropped

Louis..A perfectionist at putting his oppenents in harms way..Once you were hurt it was over pretty fast

Foreman..Self explanatory

Marciano..In my opinion the more hurt the opponent was..the faster and more brutal the KO was, some of his KO's are hard to watch!

 

Whilst not a great puncher Ali WAS a good finisher, and is under appreciated for it.:good

 

Marciano was sloppy in several fights imo.
Against Moore,****ell, and Savold. He looked great against Mathews ,but most big bangers would.

 

In terms of pure finishers:

Sullivan
Fitzsimmons
Langford
Dempsey
Louis
Liston
Tyson
Lewis

 

I would say the first Foreman not the comeback version, Tyson and Joe Louis

 

Agreed!..But still once the Rock had you in trouble you were screwed!:hey

 

Dempsey,for a small guy who only went about 190, he hurt and traumatized a lot of guys much bigger than him, and a lot of his fights were just brutal.
Runner up has to be Big George, 1st career..

 

For me...it's Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano...

 

Thats what im talkin about!!:good

 

Actually,I think the fact that Marciano was a methodical, grinding ,punisher worked against his opponents long term,and resulted in his ruining quite few guys. ****ell, Walcott,Charles,Lastarza ,were seriously diminished after their fights with Rocky, he put guys through hell, and the bigger their balls, the bigger the hiding.

 

Well said!!:yep
