    It’s sort of like asking which hurts more, getting run over by a cement truck at full speed racing downhill or a runaway train.

    Does it matter? Both hit hard enough to separate a man from his senses.

    Seems people who experienced both think Shavers hit harder. I’ll take them at their word.

    (Foreman was a better fighter, had a poleax jab and was a better finisher as well as being stronger than a horse. But that doesn’t mean he hit harder.)
