P4P hardest punchers of all time....

[ROSEWOOD]

gotta go with Foreman then Tyson..

I'm glad someone brought up Mugabi. When I was a kid he was one of my favorite fighters, I remember being impressed by all of those 1st round wins.

A pleasure to do it. If you love first round KO's (and, I guess not many don't), then, following Edwin Valero who has consecutively KO'd 18 of 19 foes in the very first round and one in the second to tote a 19-0 record should provide some thrills for you. Valero is facing Vicente Mosqueda in Panama in August--his first real test--for the WBA Jr. Light diadem.

Many don't like Valero seeing him to be raw. With a punch like that one cannot really compile ring experience-- he ended his fights so early, he hadn't put in the rounds. Moreover, a number point to his not having been granted a license to fight in the U.S. for medical reasons (something about a brain injury discovered during a pre-fight medical check-up in New York some years back), citing the possibility that Valero can be fatally injured if he faced quality opposition.

I'm, keeping tabs on Valero, earnestly hoping that nothing bad would happen to him. I also want to find out if he becomes another Mugabi or....

You finally said something right.

You finally said something right.

Actually no he messed up again. George isn't the hardest hitter, especially not P4P.

[Southpaw Stinger]

p4p well you have to look at the guys like Julian Jackson, Gerald McClellan, Nigel Benn who were all basicly middleweights with heavyweight power.

[hemichromis]

tommy hearns is a big contender he carried his power from welter to cruiserweight this means at welter he muct have been none of the best p4p

julian jackson is my pick however

[Orange Sneakers]

Benn, Wilde and Hamed were sickness

Mike Tyson without a doubt . Lennox lewis said before they fought that when he sparred with tyson when they were kids that the punches he took were some of the hardest shots he had taken through out his whole carrer . He said even back then tysons power was unreal . If tyson punched harder than nearly all heavyweight at 17 . Imagine how hard he punched when he was 21.

Probably not as hard, since he spent his run as champion/post-champion hungover, and on less than 3 weeks of training at a time.
