    Obviously the Zhang fights prove that there was a ceiling to how many punches he can take from a killer puncher, but who's the hardest puncher that you see Joyce taking the punches of with little issue?

    I must admit, as one of the sites premier Foreman haters, I'm a little surprised to read you concede he's a harder hitter than a 273lbs Stiverne, 255lbs Parker and 244lbs Dubois ;)

    Joyce didn't exactly beat them by being elusive.....

    He probably didn't think of those guys, he'll change his pick now.

    I’m not sure if he hit harder than Butterbean. They both had similar upside and downside too.

    Nah, I suspect he felt he was on to a loser either way to directly address my post, so he responded with some irrelevant comment about Butterbean instead. Almost made me chuckle, though. Almost.

    Maybe Bruno since Dubois & Bruno have some similarities.

    I don't know if I'd go as far as what the thread is asking for though in regards to "little issue".
