Freddie Roach Thinks Wlad Hits Harder than Tyson Ever Did.Do you know more than Roach

[Spray_resistant]

Sorry, there's very little in the way of hard evidence to back this up. Wlad's had numerous fights where he was hitting guys flush on the chin with his right hand over and over again (1st Peter fight, 2nd Brester fight, Thompson fight) and either stopped them on accumulation, or by catching them right on the button. His one punch power is pretty overrated IMO.

No one in the sport ko'd every one with every single power shot they landed though there are plenty of highlights of Wlad putting fighters down in such a manner.

Even if we cannot determine whether he is the hardest puncher ever or not I think its possible and that he is certainly at the top of the list.

Yes, that's a perfectly fair statement to make, and one I wouldn't argue with.

Tyson's one punch prowess gets vastly underrated on here though. We was dropping numerous opponents with one shot. His blistering combinations in the early part of his career tend to make people overlook this fact.

Tyson only looked like a puncher when he fought bummy fighters. Look at his losses, all those guys took his best punch and laughed it off.

You can make anyone look like a puncher if they got the right opponent. Pauli malignaggi has 8 K.O's lol

Was Holmes a bum? Tyson dropped him with one shot, then knocked him unconscious. I don't give a shit about Holmes's age, who else ever did that to him?

Holmes was damn near 50 years old. He also got his glove stuck up on the ropes when tyson belted him.

Besides even a young Larry holmes isn;t that great. He made a career out of ali's left overs.

Why was a 350 year old Holmes able to hang with a prime Holyfield, Mercer and McCall then?

So explain to me again why Shavers is a harder puncher than Tyson?
