Hardest hiting HW ever

tyson I mean look at the shot he put on Micheal Johnson. I don't think I've ever seen a punch like that before.

I'd say Shavers, Foreman, Tyson and Liston. Louis would come after them.

It has to be Shavers or Foreman............Why didn't these two ever fight?

Foreman and Tyson in that order. I think a 40 year old fighter still having the ability to knock out a 20 something Heavyweight Champ in Michael Moorer is all that needs to be said. Amazing.

Should probably agree with ali shavers, number of cases could be made for Louis who kod guys with flurrys of punches, Foreman did have power. Max Baer did have scary power aswell. Dempsey had good power aswell. John L Sullivan hit hard too. 2 many to name one by one.

Tyson, Foreman, Liston, Shavers Maybe not creative just to quote, but I too see it this way ;) .

Wez.... Holmes also says Shavers was the hardest hitter he ever faced. & Jack....no one knows for sure....but, if we can't JUDGE who the best hitters are....than I don't want to hear YOU say Whitaker & Floyd were great boxers,. I mean, c'mon EXPERT....how the f*ck would YOU know ?

My pick is Mike Tyson, look what he did to Larry Holmes!!! Don't get me wrong i think all the others were hard hitters but Mike had something different.

i think Shavers is the hardest hitter ever, i'll take Ali's word, he sampled some of the harderst punchers in history. He took Liston's, Foreman's, Frazier's, and Marciano's shots, i think we should listen to Ali, he would know. "Experts" didn't get hit with what Ali did I was going with what my Pop said Foreman, but if Ali said that it's Shavers then, I am sure my dad will also believe Ali....

Shavers, Foreman, Tyson, Liston

comepana i'm hypnotized by your avatar

Agreed,that man could kill a great boxer with his power.

Ivan Drago hands down.

Mike would be my pick

What the hell do experts know about who hits the hardest. Have they taken a punch from those mother-fuckers? Exactly.;) Clever post Jack :D

tyson,shavers,foremen

No question its Iron Mike Tyson

There have been tons of guys who could hit insanely hard. I wonder how hard George Foreman would hit with those 2oz gloves they wore during the Corbett-Fitzimmons era. It seems like Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, and Jack Dempsey caused the most damage with their punches though, could be the gloves. I don't know if Foreman ever gave someone serious injuries. John L. Sullivan supposedly deformed peoples faces...but that's with skintight gloves, basically oven mitts.
