Is Mighty Mo the hardest puncher in heavyweight history?.

[catskills23]

Oh yeah Tyson would rip a normal mans head off with one shot, and was deffinently one of the hardest hitters of all time. But their have been guys that hit harder than him by the multiples, their are people that KILL people with one punch. Ask yourself this, how many times did you ever see Tyson KO a good decent fighter with one punch? Look at Tyson in training, he used a short 150lbs heavybag, now look at Foreman on a 100lbs bag and Frazier on a 150lbs bag, Shavers made a 150lbs bag explode on the discovery channel! Foreman punched a hole in a 150lbs bag. Liston Knocked the speedbag off its hinges regularly. Tyson...put small dents in his heavybag...

Mercado being close to Shavers is from the word of other fighters, whether it is legit or not is...up for grabs.

tyson ony used a 150 lb bag when he was and when he was filmed using it he was working on his combinations , footwork and speed he was not landing full power shots , however once he ditched rooney he just loaded up on it one punch at a time and it was also a heavier bag and he made it move as much as foreman,shavers or anyone else . i remember some heavyweight saying that you have know idea how hardn hits until you watch him spar . He said the noise of tyson punches when they land were way louder and heavier than any other heavyweight he had ever seen . a number of refs who reffed his fights said they had never seen anyone with tysons power before in any division.
