who hits harder?

who hits harder?


Kostya hits much harder than Gatti. Kostya hits like a demon.

then their not even close???

Tszyu hits way harder

Kostya by a mile. When this guys lands thew right hand, it like a mule kicking you in the face. It is great that Gatti has begun to show some better power in the last few fights, but Tszyu will one punch people, and do it easily.

Kostya :boxing: hands down

I have to agree with everyone. Kostya is clearly the harder puncher. Two fights to observe if you have doubts are Tszyu vs Mitchell II or Tszyu vs Judah.

or Tszyu vs. Hurtado. nasty.

Easily KT, pound for pound he is probably in the top 3 hardest hitters in the world

Zoo hits much harder.

Kostya by far! I was fortunate to catch a q and a with Livingstone Bramble in the last few days and he said out of all his opponents no one even came close to Kostya's punches and he said it didnt' matter where he hit you either!

They ALL hurt! Come on, Gatti's more of a sharp puncher but not a KO artist like Tszyu.

Tito or Kostya???

Tito or Kostya???Both can punch imho Tszyu is a KO expert, second to none. I mean, at a cetain point it don't matter. Anyone his weight is gonna feel stress due to the power of his punches. Tito can ice ya too!

didn't leija say that gatti hit harder than zoo, would that just be because leija is getting older and his chin wasn't as good as it use to be?

ya to me
its gatti
if KTs such a one punch ko artist
why didnt he take out Mitchell with one
gatti can def hit harder
altho KT seems to throw more accuarte
but then again artuos become more conservative and accuarite wiht his **** too
i pick Gatti

didn't leija say that gatti hot harder than zoo, would that just be because leija is getting older and his chin wasn't as good as it use to be?I don't know. Seems I recall that but if he punched so hard he sure woulda gotten him outta there sooner, I'm thinking. For their careers I have to stay with Tszyu hands down. I just don't look at Gatti as a "lights out" puncher.

Wilson Rodriguez?
Gabriel Ruelas?
Joey Gamache?
Leonard Dorin?

only time ive seen KT show a monstorous punch was against judah
other then that
he just seems like a big hitter
gatti does have 1 punch power tho

Zoo is always in control but gatti seems to have a better one punch KO when he gets hurt by a fighter. I think gatti is one of the most dangerous fighters when you have him hurt.

im thinkin kosta tszyu but tyson hits harder ,LOL

Tszyu by a mile. Unless its a left hook to the body. Gatti seems to of stolen Mickey Wards powers in a boxing verison of Highlander.

KT.. no question..

Kostya, no doubt. Ask Zab or Mitchell. Gatti is heavy handed no doubt, but when Tszyu hits people, it's like they don't know what happened to them.

kostya zoo hits much harder than gatti, but if they were to fight each other Gatti has an equal chance of winning...i have never seen gatti knock somebody out silly unlike kostya zoo made zab judah look like a clown, gatti will take kosta's punches better than zab did....it will be a close fight if it happens.

Kostya hits much harder than Gatti. Kostya hits like a demon.

Hits like a demon? Whatever..........Kosta hits harder, but Gatti can obviously hold his own.

Vince Phillips was quoted saying that Kostya hits harder than Ike Quartey did. That equals to a lot harder than Gatti, who landed perfectly clean punches on Mickey Ward like 300 times per fight, without knocking him down more than once in 3 fights.
If Kostya were to hit Ward that cleanly, with full power, it would have been light's out, if not LIFE's out ;)
If you watch Tzyu's fights, you'll see that he's not punching with more than half power most of the time to avoid punching himself out, something he learned from his only loss. (the Vince Phillips fight in 97')

I'm gonna assume that Vince was knocked so silly by Ike Quartey that he forgets how hard Ike hit him.

Ike's JAB was doing more damage to Vince than any of Kostya's power shots were doing.
Once Ike rolled out his own powershots, Vince was dusted in devastatingly quick fashion.

Tszyu is a great puncher.....the power & accuracy are no doubt there. But there's no way he, at 140, hits as hard as Ike was hitting at 147.

Zoo hits way harder than Gatti, and in a fight between the pair IMO KT would beat gatti inside 6 rounds.

I wouldn't know, he never hit me.
And I wouldn't know if he hits harder than Quartey either, I just read somewhere that Phillips was quoted saying that.

I don't know who I would consider the harder hitter.
Gatti can knock a ***** unconcious..
and Kostya only needs one punch..
I dunno..

Kostya hits much harder than Gatti. Kostya hits like a demon.

Yeah very true, i doubt even tough Micky Ward could stand upto Kostya for 5 rounds, never mind the 30 rounds Gatti failed to stop Ward in.

tzsyu hits harder, hands down

kostya hit 2 to 3 times harder than Gatti

I just watched Tszyu vs. Judah again. It was funny as hell to listen to those clowns saying in first round how Judah was too fast for Tszyu to hit, etc. In the second round when Kostya found his range and started pounding Judah with half-powered shots, those clowns weren't saying anything at all, it was like, Judah isn't too fast for Kostya anymore but we don't want to look like fools contradicting ourselves. Kostya is a one-punch KO master, hits harder than anyone pound for pound IMHO.

Its like this IMO.

KT hits harder hands down....one punch and your out.

Gatti has great combination power...rocks his opponents heads back and forth. :boxing:

KT is the harder puncher, but Gatti can hang. For those the say Gatti doesn't hit hard because he only floored Ward once....silly. Ward has never been stopped (other than cuts) and he was only saw the canvass three times in his whole career.

this is a gay thread, and the original poster should get a perma life ban for creating retarded **** like this

i cant even believe you numb nuts are replying 'zoo hits harder' no ****in **** . dont be a tard! dont fall into his trap, man guys dont be ****tards.

Was Phillips stopped on cuts or knocked down? I cant remember.
