i 2nd tyson....Had much sharper punches to me..Foreman in his prime had tons of power, but he winged a lot of his punches..To me, Tyson was just the more precise straighter puncher. -
Technically, Tyson was better puncher with far better accuracy but for raw power I gotta go with Big George. Imagine if he had good techinque?!!Comment

Yes, Foreman not only winged his punches, but he was very slow, "heaved" his punches, not much boxing shill, basically a powerhouse slugger, and again....Sloow. You find writers nowadays saying that Foreman was such a clever boxer that he spent 10 rds at the receiving end. so that he could "trap" Moorer into that single rt.hand punch which KO'd him, NO such thing. Foreman was losing BIG, and managed a lucky punch at the very right time. With his new title, Forerman was careful enough to fight nothing but nonen****** both begore and after his historic win, until he finally retired, more of a sideshow than s fighter. He was very careful to never accept the dozens of challenges of an equally ancient Larry Holmes, who founght untel well in his 50's.
Tyson, on the other hand, although he threw speedy,powerful, multipunch combinations, seems to me to have had many more 1 punch KO's. And, as far as recall (I could be a bit wrong here) the only time I recall him dropping someone, without finishing him off/or winni g big, was his Douglas fight.
Still, unless they are judged on mutual opponents, and by genuine experts, who themselves are often wrong.............
Just my opinin.Comment
