    Tyson knocked out durable guys like Holmes and Thomas.

    Wlad couldn't even knock out glass jawed Haye or Chambers.

    This post is full of win. And will add, Tyson also would counter you flush, which adds to his devastating effect. While Wlad leads and it still breaks people.

    Maybe so but I honestly think just because Wlad is so tall and has good form and build he may be the harder puncher.

    Tyson is was an all around better fighter than Vlad.

    Vlad just depends on his height where Tyson depended on real skills.

    Mike swarmed people, more accumulation. Wlad is more selective with his punches.

    I don't agree with Zakman often, but I do regarding this topic. Course we're both older than water so we remember Tyson in his prime. Single punch shots might belong to Wlad but Tyson usually threw combinations and their effect far exceeded anything Wlad throws.

    Not out of the range of possibility. Wlads chin seems a lot more unsteady than Mikeys'. The subject here is punching power, not any of the other stuff.

    I'd much rather see Tyson in action han he wladmeister, I remember what a phenom he was too.
    I don't discount that Mike may have been the hardest puncher ever...
    However, if you notice Mikes KO's the opponents are battered into helplessness.
    His Ko's are like George Foremans KO's, the opponents are battered into submission but none truely knocked unconcious. (Wlad, same thing)

    If anyone knows of any fights where Tyson or Wlad KO's an opponent in the manner of Pacquiao over Hatton, Hearns over Duran or JMM over Pacquiao please refer me and I'll watch the youtube and I'll eat my words.

    ? The question was who is the bigger puncher not the better combination puncher.

    Tyson is much more aggressive than Wlad. He goes for the KO EVERY round. Wlad doesn't... They both hit hard as hell. Hard to tell, it's not crazy at all to think Wlad has more one punch power.

    Which punch did Steward mean? Or did he mean just the WK right cross against Tyson's uppercut? Or wholly, arsenal versus arsenal?
