P4P hardest punchers of all time....

[Hawkins]

Back to the subject of this thread Hawkins, OK! Now, who are the pound for pound hardest punchers of all time? Mike Tyson at number one for me.

Truthfully, we could make a case for any number of guys. Currently I've been researching "The Michigan Assassin" Stanley Ketchel. A strong case could be made for him because he was a murderous puncher.

Any number of guys - Wilfredo Gomez, Julian Jackson - the list could go on for days...

Mike has to be the hardest hitting heavyweight first before he can qualify for the top of any p4p lists. Mike knocked people out with an accumulation of punches, impressive combinations, and constant pressure.

My facts are wrong? Get out of here kid, who the hell are you to turn things around. Stewart literally threw in the towel against Tyson because he hit that hard. All of Tyson's opponents who faced him that couldn't take his punch power gave up mentally, either that or they couldn't hit him. In this case Stewart couldn't take his power, but stood there with Foreman all the way. Stewart literally said Tyson hits harder than Foreman. Also said Holyfield wasn't hurting me more than the ref did by stopping the fight. An 8th round TKO not knocked off his feet pal. Said Tyson hits harder than him. Saverese clearly stated that Tyson hit him the hardest he has ever been hit. He wasn't even pissed that the ref stopped the fight, he didn't even get paid for that fight. No matter he didn't want a rematch because he said Tyson was an animal in the ring who doesn't listen to the rules but hits as hard as bricks on his fists.

Get the hell out of here enough of your fairy tell bull **** stories.

where are you getting your facts from?. holyfield said bowe and foreman hit harder than tyson . pinklon thomas said tommy morrison hit much harder than tyson . Larry holmes said that shavers,ken norton and gerry cooney all hit harder than tyson . tyrell biggs said jeff sims hit harder than tyson. frank bruno said bonecrusher smith hit harder than tyson.

Larry Holmes is totally full of BS though, Holmes HATED Tyson, I wouldn't doubt that he said that but he's full of it. (I mean Ken Norton? lol)

The other guys I need proof. There is also lots of proof that people say Tyson's punches where the most brutal they had been hit by.

Mike has to be the hardest hitting heavyweight first before he can qualify for the top of any p4p lists. Mike knocked people out with an accumulation of punches, impressive combinations, and constant pressure.

Your forgetting the fight's that he knocked guys out with one punch. Name one fighter that is a better one hit KO artist than Tyson, Tua is close maybe.

Tyson could hurt you with any punch he threw, he just had to land the ones he was throwing with force. No boxer ever throws every punch with all their might, they'll get tired too quick. True, it did take accumulation to get a lot of those guys out of there but that's because they all ran from him, clinched, and concentrated on safety first. It's hard for any fighter to knock a fighter out that's trying very hard not to get knocked out. When a fighter tried to fight Mike, they got knocked out. BTW I'm talking about the first Tyson, not the piece of crap he became after Rooney. There will always be someone out there that can take your best punch, but with Tyson, that was very few men.
