Who Was The Hardest Puncher Marciano Met?

Have you done the same with Foreman?
I think boxrec lists 26 for big George, as actual KOs.

 

Not as low as posting a "laughing emoticon" at the fact a man would be dead from boxing related injuries after two more fights.

 

I think he has 26, including both his careers.

 

Yes, that is correct.

Still, the whole point stands that McVey was just trying to downgrage Moore's number and not realizing the can of worms he opened for resumes of other punchers.

 

Well your boy shouldn't be accusing posters of exploiting a man's death, when he was laughing about it just pages into this thread. And than describing it as a "funny KO"

 

about your editing funny to strange.

Just wanted to get you on the record.

 

It seemed that way to me too.
It's interesting to check the statistics though. Tyson is listed on boxrec with only 13, out of 58 fights, though I think he's been cheated out of a few there (Holmes, Berbick, Thomas?, Tubbs).

 

Exactly, it all depends on the ref.

Still there is bound to be some evening out, interesting that Moore, Tyson, and Foreman are roughly at pace with each other.

 

He had 77 fights against HWs, you can't count the rest. Moore can't very well knockout a HW if his opponent is a middleweight.

I've explained why I used 180 lbs this time around, it was an attempt at avoiding that argument again.

 

Surely if Moore fought 77 heavyweights, he fought 77 heavyweights.

Since it's been pointed out that the bulk of his record-setting stoppage number (is it 145? 131? ) came against non-heavyweights, they've be disqualified for this discussion on heavyweight punching.

If those stats are correct. 53 stoppages in 77 HW fights, with 20 clean KOs, that's pretty respectable numbers, from what I can tell.
