Which Heavyweight had the single hardest punch

[Wiley Hyena]

You might be on to something... I didn't even think about that.

The one thing I was shocked about was how low Julian Jackson was on the list.

To continue with Dwiens' schooling (a joke), and for the entertainment of everyone else, I present Foreman v. Lyle:

Haha, I told you sugar, I voted for Foreman. If you can knock out someone when you are like 45, and a huge layer of fat coats your muscles, you have some serious ****ing power.

He could hit, but above Hagler, Chavez, Duran, Armstrong, not to mention Tua, Frazier, Lewis, Holyfield and others, no way.

freaking love that fight, lyle V Foreman kicks ass!

[Panamaniac]

At least your honest in your assesment of yourself.
I think that it wasn't so much that he was a lousy fighter but he fought in the most competitive era ever. Not only were they all talented in their own way but most of them could take a lot of punishment and had quality chins.
Maybe had he got a chance against Frazier or Norton for the title he may have won it and would have been looked upon as more than just a great puncher. Same can be said for Ron Lyle.

First of all, you have some nerve agreeing with my self-deprecating remarks... Watch it, pal! That said, I remember that knockdown slugfest between Ron Lyle and George Foreman...

I Can't Believe I Was The Only One Who Chose Liston

I can't believe you capitalized the first letter of every word in your sentence as if it were a title. But I digress... Liston does deserve honorable mention, although he wasn't the hardest puncher. The way he punched Patterson around the ring like a ragdoll (in their two matches) made Liston seem more fearsome than he actually was.

Update:-

Foreman leads with 25
Shavers next on 21

Tyson on 13

It's a 2 horse race 3rd seems settled for now.
Can't believe J.Louis only has 1 vote

David Tua wouldve been able to take all there punchers and hit them harder then they had hit him!!! Nowhere near the best boxer out of the HWs but in matters of power he is better then them all!! oh and has a better chin!!!

Wlad belongs in that list.
He hits harder than, freaking 1890s Jeffries, cmon man.
He hits harder than Dempsey, Louis, Lewis, Ron Lyle, Rocky Marciano and that's only because of his size and speed. If you were to put some kind of measuring system that shows how much power you have, surely Wlad would be the most powerful one. This is simple physics. The only ones I can see that match up Wlad's power are, Tua, Tyson,(and Tyson is a special case) Foreman and maybe Shavers.

how do you actually know that wlad hits harder than jeffries, louis, lewis, lyle and marciano.
