    Can't believe you haven't added Holyfield or Larry Holmes to that list.

    R. jones

    Why jones is there and no Ruddock or Morrison is also questionable.Two of the most wicked punchers to ever lace them up.

    Uppercuts was the prime weapon of Young Foreman, just look at his fights with Frazier and Norton..Nobody could throw them like Foreman, in 1990 he fought Mike Jameson and hammered his mouthpiece in to the fift row with a booming right uppercut...

    For single punch power, Foreman easily. As part of a combination, Tyson.
