    He liked tasting the canvas more when Vitali hit him though. So i dont even think i can really listen to Danny. Maybe he didnt feel how powerful Vitali was becase he was seeing stars when he got hit. Vitali hit harder. I will be arrogant in saying that.

      Tyson by far is the better puncher than Vitali ever was because of his technique he once had. Not to mention his speed, but the fact that Tyson used to turn his hips into is punches to get the leverage to KO people was beautiful. Vitali was more of an arm puncher mainly because of his height.

Tyson with his best punch hits harder than Vitali, significantly harder, but the average punche he throws can't compare with Vitali as Tyson is nowhere near as physically strong. Tyson gets his power from speed, accuracy, and his weight. He is not a very heavy handed fighter.
        he never said that you fool . if you watch his post fight interview after the vitali fight . he said to merchant that tyson hit harder but vitai was more consistent with his power and more accurate .

          danny was floored 5 times by vitali, but got up 5 times.

          he's truly shown great heart in his career, and the only thing missing is that elusive world title.

          i think vitali probably punches harder than tyson, although its hard to admit that. vitali was a good heavyweight with alot of skills

                But Danny said Tyson ended his career and not Vitali. So he was finished when he fought VItali and that is why he went down like a bowling pin.

                  Yes, i was so sorry about that because i thought and still think he would have knocked Williams out if not this motherfu..... injury!! I think Tyson looked good in that figh and yes, he landed big bombs on Williams, much harder bombs than Harrison for example but Williams is done and seemingly cant take the punishment anymore. if not the injury, maybe Tysons carreer ended a bit defferent, who knows!

You cant compare harrisons punches with tyson its not even close . Tyson hit hit me so hard that he put ten years on my career. Even though i beat tyson his power still took a lot out of me. I havent being the same fight since tyson . I can see the openings but i cant get there anymore".


                      ....Unless I see this in print or see a youtube clip I'm gonna have to call bull**** on this one.
