    Different type of power. Wlad gets his from great technique, leverage and height. Tua gets his from great technique and being built like a Mack truck.

          Plenty of fighters "hit hard". Very few fighters punched like Tua, including Ike.

            the legs only transfer the force, you can have skinny ass legs and punch like a truck, it's mostly upperbody

            is that hard to believe? if so i dont give a ****, believe what you want

                Actually, power is mostly dependent on the muscles of the right hand and forearm. Which is good news for you, eh

                  Not sure though Ernie Shavers and Foreman can punch anyone harder than the rest.
                  I can only think of Tyson to compare Tua with I guess he'e the closest in that department.

                      That's why you will seldom see anyone get knocked out when you bitchslap them.And highheels don't help either.
