Bruno hardest punching heavyweight in history?.

[Rudyo]

No, Lewis stood up to his punch and he didn't have the greatest chin, IMO Lewis has a stronger punch. Bruno was just muscular strong like Briggs.

yea,,bruno didnt have the snap in his punches to be a huge puncher. most of his knockout were against stiffs. he was as strong as an ox though

Frank Bruno, Mike Tyson, Razor Ruddock, George Foreman and Chris Eubank all had their punches measured (for charity I think) in London in April 1991 on a machine similar to the one Ivan Drago used in Rocky IV.

Bruno won. All I know is that Bruno's punch was said to be equivalent of being hit by a sledgehammer (!) and that Eubank's was measured at two tonnes (which was considered insane force for a middleweight).

where is your proof dude?. are you english?.

bruno was a massive puncher, i think he hit at least as hard as lewis, but he didnt have the speed or snap in his punch.

I have no proof. I just remember reading about it.

There's no reason to assume that Bruno didnt have incredible power. He certainly had an almost unique boxing physique. However he never had the ability to pick the punches in fights and get the angles that many other better boxers got. I dont see why he wouldnt be able to hit a punch-bag harder than anyone else though.

in april 1991 foreman was in america as he was fighting holyfield for the world title. why would he interupt training and **** up his body clock by flying to england to partake in a small charity thing?

It does, its nothing special really, since it only measures one aspect of a punch -- which is pressure generated. Things like timing and accuracy are left out.
