Who hit harder, Ali or Holyfield?

I think Foreman took Holyfield's punches better as he was a stronger bigger man then he was in 74'. He also paced himself more. I think he could take a shot better if he wasn't tired

 

Holyfield was unloading with absolute bombs in that fight.

 

yeah but Foreman wasn't really tired like he was against Ali. Ali knocked him out because George expended all of his energy carelessly. He didn't do that against holy

 

That's overly simplified.And not necessarily valid. You would need to take into account density, surface area of impact, rate of acceleration, among other thing to try and quantify punching power. Then there is technique, how much of a persons mass do they put behind a punch? There's just a whole bunch of stuff to account for in attempting to quantify a punch.

 

Bradley puts alot in his punches too

 

I'll say Ali based on this knowledge right here.

 

Probably Ali, but he was a natural heavyweight with a fantastic technique.

 

U wud have to give Holy the edge ,

Clay did not crack 1 egg with 1 uppercut , Holy, cracks eggs 100% all time .

Clay cud not floor a midget like Frazier, or other jokes .

Holy 100% punched harder.

 

But yet he stopped sir enry cooper TWICE,blood or no blood.And by the way,that midget Frazier would have hammered sir enry cooper,too.

 

Holyfield

 

M8,
stop talking nonsene. Cooper STOPPED clay the first time . Smelling salts and cut glove bull**** ,
saved,
Clay his "0".
Reminds me of "Mayweather jr."
Frazier wud not stop cooper ,
mabye on cuts ,
but Cooper wud stop Frazier more often then ,
not, .

 

I'm not your mate,you pommie *****.And no,cooper did not "stop" "Clay" as Ali stopped cooper.2 times.Twice.Get over it.No don't.Keep posting as your stupidity is highly evident..And by the way,learn to write your own language correctly and stop writing your "nonsene"

 

Gonna go with Ali based on the second Liston fight, which admittedly could have been thrown by Liston, but if it wasn't, then that was one shot knock out power.

And whoever said it's because he KO'd Foreman isn't making a valid point. Foreman basically KO'd himself from exhaustion, Ali's power certainly didn't do it.

It's a pretty close call, either way.

 

shut the **** up u ****. ****in *****

 

I don't know who had more "raw power", but Holyfield was more likely to do serious damage with a single shot. His left hook hurt the iron-chinned Mercer and made him reel back and take a knee. He had Bowe very close to out in the third bout with one left hook.

Holyfield put more onto his shots though, than Ali usually did.
