Who hit harder ? Bert Cooper or Mike Tyson ?

I forgot to relate to the red part previously.
It is wrong.
I don't know twice harder than what : than himself or than Tyson .
But anyway - as u probably think it's almost d same and unimportant , if Cooper hit "twice as hard" whatever u meant , he would have been d hardest puncher in history which would have meant that Holyfield , Moorer and others would not have risen from d KDs they suffered which would have turned those KDs into KOs which is not exactly d same thing , if I m not mistaken .
This might have made him a much more avoided contender , a David Tua with a lesser punch resistance , but probably yet even harder hitting than Tua . So I think it would have mattered , especially as Cooper proved 2 b able 2 land his punches.

 

He floored Holyfield & Moorer and maybe another 1 from d list u gave with the power he actually had in reality. Why do u think that if he had more than twice (as u think he didn't have more than Tyson) power than what was sufficient for him 2 achieve those KDs , they would have still gotten up ? if Moorer didn't get up from Foreman & Tua , and floored by Cooper , why would he have gotten up from Cooper *2 , a similar argument with Holyfield and others . And if he was such a hard puncher , he would have put people out with grazing punches.

 

Differently indeed : vs Tyson he felt comfortable enough to only butt and hug , vs Cooper both Holyfield and Moorer needed their gloves 2b retaped so they will get d time to recuperate from Cooper's power that put them down and almost out.

But you probably meant that Holyfield fought Cooper less carefully . Since when does Holyfield take any of his opponents lightly ?

 

Another thing that I was about to type previously but forgot in the last moment but recalled now and u don't factor in is d promotional , public and commercial support that Tyson had and Cooper hadn't . If 2 Tyson opponents had their gloves retaped like this immediately after a significant KD .. imagine it happened 4 Tyson vs Pinklon Thomas . Actually I need 2 rewatch it as Thomas had Dundee in his corner and Dundee invented that trick 4 Ali . What d public (fans) , Don King , Kevin Rooney etc would have done ? b silent about it ? I don't think so.

 

And another thing : Holyfield fought Cooper d way he was supposed (trained) 2 fight Tyson .. Cooper was Tyson's replacement vs. Holyfield ..

 

OK , now I watched Cooper vs Savage , and wasn't that impressed (referring only 2 this 1 fight) because of these reasons :
1) It was Savage's first , last and only fight let alone round in professional boxing .
2) Savage already had 42 listed bareknuckle fights behind him at that point
3) Savage's age isn't listed , he looks old , fat and bald in there.
4) Savage was on his way up (from the 2nd KD) , but the referee assured that he wasn't .. I mean how many people would have overcame the referee on their way up from a KD , would Holyfield and Moorer ? I doubt it. Actually I don't . I know they couldn't. It was a takedown by the referee ..
And Cooper landed combination even prior to the first KD , really far from a 1
punch KO ..

But I want all of this post 2b only taken in regards 2d Joe Savage fight , and not as anything decisive about/in regards 2 this thread's purpose.
