    Silly comparison. Tyson was an animal, a complete freak, incomparable really

    Holyfield was one hell of a puncher at cruiser, but you wouldn't compare him to Tyson, or even close to it at heavy. This would be more of a worthwhile discussion point if/when Haye blasts out some decent heavyweight contenders in style, as Tyson did

    Not really. Those are the feelings you have about a possible rematch between Haye and Macca. Have a nice day. :hi:

    Yea there is no question as to who hits harder.....answer Tyson.

    Haye does hit very hard and there can't be too much in it between him and Tyson, but for me Tyson is one of the hardest hitters theres ever been.

    For me a good one would of been who hits harder, Tyson or Foreman (both prime of course)

    I can believe haye hits harder than the Tyson Williams fought.

    Tyson was a shell of his former self and had lost a lot of speed.

    Haye hit harder than prime Tyson? I doubt it.

    Even pound for pound, Tyson still has more power.

    Its pretty simple, the force of a punch is a combination of speed and power. it makes total sense.

    Would you rather get hit by a Bus travelling 10mph or a Mini doing 50mph?

    I imagine David Haye is a very hard hitter, but there is no way I can even see his power compare to Mike Tyson's.
