    Lyle hits harder then Walcott based on what?
    I'll give you Frazier, but walott was still faster and more accurate then both of them.
    Frazier wasn't sharp at all when he fought foreman twice.

    agreed. :lol:
    although people usually say that when they give up
    whatever
     
  4. joe frazier was a ****ing bull in 1973 when he faced foreman, he wasn´t in his pick but anyway frazier was a beast in 1973, frazier gave ali the biggest hell of his career in 1975. foreman was too powerful and he had the incorrect style for joe, it is all. foreman would ko frazier 70-71 as well

    No offense Tommy but Lyle was a monster puncher, likely a class above the very dangerous Walcott ... Joe was a sharp puncher but Lyle the heavier ...

    This is a huge exaggeration to be honest. No doubt the man had heavy hands and could hit, but a monster puncher? Hardly. The only big KO win he had was over Shavers, and even then Shavers took it from him over and over until falling over from sheer exhaustion. In the Foreman fight, he was hitting Foreman at will and showed good power, but in the end he couldn't take his man out even though he had him defenseless.

    Lyle was a bludgeoning puncher and could grind you down but Walcott was more dangerous with his sneaky counters.

    Cleveland Williams was probably a harder hitter with one punch than Lyle.

  11. it is very funny because you use the testimony of ali to say shavers was harder puncher than foreman. but now you said ali didn´t take clean shots from foreman, Because it benefits you in this topic. if ali didn´t take clean shots of george in the face , he might not say that shavers did hit harder.
