    The best punch thrown in boxing and the hardest punch thrown in boxing are two different type of punches. I don't think the punch thrown to Fullmer is actually that hard, it's just that it hit the right spot the timing was right and fullmer didn't see it coming.

    If we're talking about the hardest punch thrown in boxing than Johansonn-Machen should be up there

    True, the list for the thread title can only include Heavyweights if it is credible.

    Technical punches have a starting point of the so-called perfect punch thrown by Robinson in the Gene Fullmer rematch.

    Nice thread. I reckon some of Povetkin's left hooks might be candidates for that list though.

    Frank Bruno knocking out Gerrie Coetzee was fairly impressive.

    Bob Foster's was absolutely ****ing horribly brutal.

    It's IMO the hardest punch ever thrown in boxing history. The knockout of all knockouts.

    Definitely Shavers Holmes should not be there. Not even a Ko. So many Tyson knock outs left off and would have liked to have seen Walcott’s KO over Charles. Povetkin over Whyte was good too
