    Absolutely. I don't think even Iron Mike had a hook like that. Foreman had a great one, but it was more clubbing.

    He can be very strange in his comments. At one point he called Lewis the greatest heavyweight ever (on live tv, no less). Yet later, Lewis didn't even make his top 10 list.

    You are basing this on which particular knockout win that Williams scored?

    I am basing this on video footage.
    KO wins depends a lot on skill too, not just on power.

    ,,,,, for one shot power, it's Cleveland Williams. Heck, Foreman said Cooney hit harder than Frazier.

    Frazier has the better scalps by a mile. As far as I’m concerned who you’ve knocked out speaks volumes. Frazier >Williams

    None of the footage I’ve seen is anything like as impressive as Frazier in that footage on the post you quoted. Williams was a big, athletic guy who swung very hard. The opponent’s bodily reactions to his punches were nothing like the opponents Frazier hit.
