    Which of these heavyweights had the most one punch power in these punches, could you list them from 1st to last please

    Hook- Tyson, Tua, Frazier, Cooney, Morrison, Foreman or Bowe

    Uppercut - Tyson, Lewis, Foreman, I cant think of any modern heavyweights who had better uppercuts but if you can name some list them please

    Right hand - Liston, Lewis, Foreman, Rahman, or again you add a few more right hand punchers

    Jab - Foreman, Liston, Lewis, Ali, Holmes, Mercer

    Body puncher - Tyson, Foreman, Frazier, and you name some more people for me again please

    Power on its own is not worth two buckets of warm spit.

    George Chuvalo said that he fought journeymen who hit harder than George Foreman.

    You slightly overrate Foreman's jab and body attack. In terms of pure power his uppercut and right hand are more powerful than Lewis' in my opinion.

    I didnt say Foreman had the best jab my friend Pete, but he does have one of the most powerful jabs, Foreman also was a powerful body puncher when he actually threw to the body. I listed other guys so you could list them from best to worse, you could say Lewis right hand was better than Foreman's, i wouldnt disagree with you at all
