Hardest hitting heavyweights of all time here's a nice list

larry holmes is not the only man who faced tyson and shavers... james tillis too

 

yes.. a green foreman weighed 216 pounds and he knocked out guys who weighed 235 and 245 pounds. the weight is not matter.

1_george foreman
2_earnie shavers
3_sonny liston
4_mike tyson

 

imo its Wladimir Klitschko and then George Foreman and then Lennox Lewis.

Wladimir Klitschko is a top shape 250 pounds athlete who punches textbook style. He hurts about everyone he punches flush and knocked a lot of guys out with great chins.

i think powerwise he is the hardest puncher ever

it's funny how such a puncher has such a bad chin

 

Foreman was a devastating one punch KO artist with arm punches I think that speaks volumes of his power if he put his body weight into his punches I think he'd be the hardest hitting HW ever at least in his prime, since he didn't though probably goes to Shavers.

 

the weight is not matter, primo carnera weighed 260-280 pounds of pure muscle, he was much stronger than wlad. but he was not harder puncher than joe louis
george foreman in 1976 weighed 232 pounds and i am pretty sure on that he had more strength and he was harder puncher than wlad , mike tyson weighed 220 pounds in 1988, and earnie shavers weighed 210 pounds, the weight is not matter.

 

absolutely, he had very heavy hands and the body of a bodybuilder

 

in order it would be

1. Foreman
2. Shavers
3. Louis
4. Wlad
5. Tyson


Again Tyson was a speed guy with a very short "prime" he wasnt the hardest 1 punch guy. In fact I wouldnt have any objection to rating a few guys higher than him namely lennox, marciano, dempsey.

 

Foreman was never a"one punch ko" artist.
Add to the list, likely as number one, a young Teofilo Stevenson, if amateur boxers may be included.

 

Foreman

Compare to Tyson

Tyson was fast accurate very dynamic and great combo puncher


Foreman got heavy hands. One shot can be compared to a 50lbs hammer on your head

 

shoot urself in the ****ing head if you voted for wlad

 

teofilo stevenson harder puncher than george foreman? you are obviously drunk.
you should ask to gerry cooney if foreman was a one punch ko artist.

 

very **** list.

the only thing that kept tyson winning any of his post prison fights was raw power, his speed, and skills, had deteriorated to a great extent.

how the **** can you put wladmir up there? how does....... holding and grabbing, and keeping at bay, morbidly overmatched, plodding heavyweights, before they collapse due to exhaustion in the latter rounds..rather than any kind of great boxing...... constitute power?

 

Tyson/Foreman
Shavers
Sonny Liston
Joe Louis

 

david jaco faced old foreman and prime tyson, he said that foreman did hit like a bus and tyson did hit like a rapid car.

george chuvalo faced prime foreman and joe frazier. he said that foreman did hit like a truck and frazier did hit like a fast pontiac

evander holyfield faced old foreman, tyson,bowe,lewis, tua (his sparring partner),bert cooper and he said "foreman was the hardest puncher that i faced ever" and still he never faced a prime foreman

 

why is wladimir klitschko on this list how can he be one of the hardest puncher when hes not even the biggest puncher in his family?
