    He hit Cooney pretty hard, but didn`t hit a hard as power punching heavies compared to how he was devastating at 175, he didn`t land anything hard on Holmes and never stood a chance against a finisher like Tyson, old legs or not.

    No, those shots were 7/10 at best in terms of heavyweight power, those shots would have had zero effect on Tyson.

    Michael Hunter seems to be a bigger puncher at HW than he was at CW. He stopped Maldonado (who had gone the distance with Oscar Rivas before and went the distance with Takam afterwards) in 2 rounds, had Povetkin hurt multiple times and he dropped Kuzmin in their fight (unlike Bakole).

    Obviously AJ, Price, Whyte and Wlad hit Povetkin a lot harder than Hunter did, is he lighter than Usyk was v AJ?

    He looks pretty slender at heavyweight.

    The jury is still out but Callum Smith's power seems to be pretty okay even at a higher weight.
