Who here believes Liston hit Harder than Foreman?

[them_apples]

Its generally true,Briggs said VK hit harder than Foreman and Lewis

Yet he took Vitalis punches in stride. Lewis merked him Foreman had him running for his life.

It's too close to call but i'd give it to Liston because he's my all time fav ...

Ultimately, both Liston and Foreman were beasts in the ring, the force they both had looked immense, their whole demeanour was brutal. I don't think i've ever seen such an intimadating boxer as Liston with his glare, the power was just part of the package.

Comparisons, Chuck Wepners comment has been highlighted. Also, Ali himself commented on Listons supreme power over Foremans, but maybe this was more of his poetic mastery talking.

If you wanna say the Lewis thing fine, but the Foreman part is a nonpoint. Vitali broke Shannon's face.

And Lewis broke Vitali's face.

That's a nice zinger, but Shannon's face was actually broken...as in, bones were broken.

As was Vitali's.....a great big menstruating face vagina broke open on Vitali's face.

And Vitali literally hit him 1000+ times more right his right cross. who wouldn't have a broken face. That's not power.

With an interpretation like that you can also say that Briggs skull cracked open, defragmentated and brains splattered as far as the 10th row.

It did, but that was when Briggs fought Lennox I'm afraid.....
