Rank the current Top 10 Heavyweights by punching power.

Zhang

Anderson? Not a chance he belongs on this list. I'd say Charles Martin has more raw power than Anderson does based on their fight. The guys Anderson has stopped with one punch were...there to be stopped by one punch. Anderson *can* throw a large volume of heavy-ish shots and that's how he stopped Forrest easily. But as a one-punch KO artist? Hardly worth mentioning.

I don't think it's really possible to rank them, but I think the hardest hitters in the sport are:

Zhang, Wilder, AJ, Makhmudov, Jalolov. Put Ajagba, Joyce, and DuBois in the next group.

I'm no longer sold on Hrgovic's power. Fury? Tyson Fury has never been a huge puncher. He's superb at hitting you flush and cleanly and those shots do accumulate damage.

Kossobuitsky has incredible power when hitting the body. He's the strongest body puncher I've seen operate in a long time. He folded up Dawejko with a single well-placed body shot.
