Is this the record? at Heavyweight? I thought I counted 130 at one point, chat gpt says 116.

The record for the most punches thrown in a single round by a heavyweight boxer ( I think ) is held by Deontay Wilder, who threw an astonishing 120 punches in the first round against Luis Ortiz in their second match.
In round 8 and beyond it belongs to Rocky ( I think )
At any rate Rocky's stamina was special combined with his power and determination simply was too much for his opponents.
No charge.

Rock misses a high % of all those punches. So it's a good thing he has the stamina to waste so many that become a mere empty statistic signifying no damage.Last edited by Mr Mitts; 01-02-2025, 08:54 AM.Comment

Activity is activity and if you're looking to use your gas tank as your main key to victory then it doesn't matter no damage was done. Especially when you end the fight in KO.
You have to react. You have to make him miss or he'll end you. How long can you react? Marciano's betting he can make you react so often you get tired and react poorly. Empty stat? You sure you want to stand by that? In a thread about workrate you seem to miss the point entirely.Comment

How does that work when you aren't coming into185 /190lbs men who are in their late thirties?
Men that can not only match you for power, but can make a prisoner of you with their size in the clinches?
How would Marciano react to a man in his prime , 50/60lbs heavier .laying on him and tying him up inside?
A Lewis,a Klitschko?
Would he be able to sustain his attack in such circumstances,something he never was never called on to do?
Or do you discount the possibility that pushing,mauling,clinching and tugging with a man so much bigger might wear the smaller man down first?
Marciano hit as hard as any man his size ever did imo,but he was never the most accurate of punchers,and hitting prime men so much bigger than himself would negate the effect of his power.
Marciano hit ****ell flush for 9 rds ,and ****ell was still on his feet when the fight was stopped.
Lastarza was reduced to a stationary target in the later rounds,and Marciano was teeing off on him with impunity. but he was still on his feet when the fight ended.
Rocky could afford to swarm both of them and take 2 or 3 shots to get in with his own,because neither of them were punchers .
He would not have that luxury against the super sized ****ers that succeeded them.
The two best punchers he fought dropped him,does anyone think either hit anywhere as hard as Lennox or Wlad?
Incessant pressure is wonderful,but it needs to be effective.
Otherwise you get Foreman v Ali.Last edited by Bronson66; 01-02-2025, 03:07 PM.Comment

You probably won't believe me but I thought of this while writing the post but didn't include it. I wrote so much yesterday! I also truly divined in my fantasy that you would be the one to respond to exactly the portion that you have.
No, you are right--I cannot stand behind "empty statistic," in unqualified form. So let me rephrase right now. Though some ancillary damage is caused through missing punches, it is far less than the damage intended and drains the thrower too, who may only impart minimal damage for great effort, since everyone knows missed punches in particular are energy hogs. I don't mind being corrected. I like it.
But what about you Mar? I haven't heard you concede there are limits to, "Size doesn't matter?" Maybe you have but I missed it. I couldn't really believe you are a purist on the issue, like believing every single word of the Bible is truth from God, without hearing it from yourself.Comment
