        Are we talking about single one-punch power? If so, Vitali shouldn't be on this list.

            I was thinking brute strength. Mike Tyson always said it's not always about how hard you hit as opposed to how you hit. I think Vitali's punch is very strong.

              Like I said before, Vitali isn't in the top 30 of all time for power. Most of his KOs come late and he has virtually no one punch KOs. The guy is an arm puncher. Wladimir is a much much better puncher. He's top 10 for sure but a lot of that is due to his size. He does have good technique but there are fighters who punch with much better weight transfer. David Haye is a good example. Say what you will about Haye but he can punch for sure - arguably the best pound for pound puncher in the game. If he was Wlad's size he'd knock everybody out and he's more powerful than Vitali despite his size disadvantage. As bad as it sounds Haye has a better claim than Vitali for **** sake.

                He does not unleash it as much as usual, but Wladimir Klitschko is one of the top three hardest hitters of all times. Foreman is another.

                  Wladimir has many, most of those had never been previously stopped:

                    Tyson
                    Liston
                    Big George
                    Shavers
                    Rocky Marciano

                    Am I the only one that thinks Joe Louis power was a bit underrated? Joe Louis was the BEST PUNCHER Ever, in terms of blending Power with FORM. He got the Most of the Power he had. Vitali was a big puncher but not top 5 imo

                      Lets be real, a guy like Foreman hits alot harder than Joe Louis, Marciano and those low weight guys.
                      We are not talking greatest punchers, but hardest punching HW
