    Yeah but foreman was also a freak of nature. The didn't really have much skill but I'm sure his jabs alone were harder than Tyson's power punches! It's unfare to have him on the list.

      I heard Frazier's amateur record was 37-2. So he won a gold medal in 39 fights if that's true.

          All these guys are among the greatest heavyweights of all time. All three were much feared punchers. It doesn't take much imagination to envision these monsters devouring the average amateur, even with limited skills.

                    That is his way of taking a shot at Anthony Joshua I guess

                      Floyd Patterson's amateur record over 44 fights was 40-4, with 37 knockouts. Gold Medal was 17.
