    I would say Foreman had more power.


    However Tyson was a KO artist he had power but also he had great speed and timing to land the nice flush shots.

    Young foreman didnt even really need to land the perfect punch, he sort of just went in there swinging and 90% of the time that was enough to blow the other guys out of there in the early rounds.
     
  2. Foreman by far:amen this was an easy one, George was KNocking guy's cold at 46, and fought in his prime in a tougher era..
    **** Lennox Lewis HIT HARDER AND HAD MORE POWER THAN TYSON!!!:lol:

    Lewis was a harder power puncher than Tyson.

    Foreman. He was the most heavy handed fighter ever!

    Though frazier and norton got up from Foreman and were stopped on their feet, if he hit that hard they would have been flat out.

    I dont care about comparing a shot Tyson either? The question I assum was prime for prime, and in Tysons prime, he punched harder than Foreman in my opinion, mostly because of the speed he put behind his punching power.

    Moorer was rocked by Francois Botha. Moorer never had a good chin at heavyweight.

    Moorer was never knocked out before George though.
    If you want to say that Tyson hit harder go on Alex Stewart. Tyson W ko 1 and Foreman W 10.

    Foreman had the harder single shots.

    Tyson's speed and combination punching makes him the far, far superior composite puncher.
