    Absolutely. Arcel and co never did find out what was going on with him going into the Braddock fight but something was amiss and it wasn't the usual stuff.

    I heard after he killed Frankie Campbell he was never quite the same.

    I was in the ringside area when Deontay Wilder iced Szpilka and there was what seemed like a minute or so when he was motionless on the canvas and it crossed my mind he might be dead. Scary.

    I’ve seen a lot of good and even great fighters in person, including I think eight heavyweight title fights, and I’ve never seen a punch as explosive as that one.

    That would be extremely understandable.

    No. Foreman was easily in the top 3 punchers of all time.

    A lot of dudes gonna hit harder than foreman, who was not even the size of usyk. These guys are the main reason we even have a crozerweight division.

    Also, you are extra specialy wrong on the weight thing... Did it just fly right over your head? If foreman is a 2x heavyweight champion of the world ...why would he downgrade l?

    I wanna ansur these questions but i feel like you repeating some things and not finishing some words and some sentences and i dont really know what. But weight equals mass equals speed equals power thats physics and anyone heavier than foreman is then MORE POWERFUL AND FAST than him. its simple physics. so usyk is one, jarrell miller ovalously, fury, fury cousin fury, and the other one whos a fury and aj wilder hamed elephants lewis klit all of em.

    Is this your long winded way of saying you can't actually name names? Sounds like you are grasping at straws here, because none of those fighters stand a snowballs chance in hell of matching foreman in terms of punching power. Jesus, give me a break and put down the crack pipe.

    What do you think the results are in Ruddock lands his smash on any of the fighters above?

    As for Jose Ramon, the result would be exactly the same. But in the case of Frazier and Norton, first Razor Ruddock would have to get in position to land his bombs (cut the ring as well as Foreman, fulfill the gameplan with pushing Frazier, etc.).
    So I realize we're only discussing punch power, but you need to get in the position to throw the punch. However, I give a slight advantage to Foreman (punching power).
