How hard does Deontay Wilder hit compared to Foreman, Tua, Shavers etc?
Collapse

lets wait until he has actually fought / knocked out credible opponents first before comparing him to HOF'ers and ATG's please.
anyone can KO a load of bums, fat blobs and binman. Its a bit different when your talking about Foreman literally punching Joe Frazier OFF THE GROUND. to getting highlight reel KO's over bums like artur spilka and that fat mess of a man that turned up in the ring in Stirverne 2.
theres no doubt Wilder carries serious power, but he has to prove it agaisnt the best for me before you start saying hes the hardest hitting HW off all time ffs.
Would Foreman, Tua & Shavers go 9 rounds with Eric Molina and Spilka? im gonna say no..Comment

·James Tillis: "Shavers hit so hard he turned horse p*ss into gasoline! He hit me so hard he brought back tomorrow. When he hit me I was seeing pink **** and cats and animals smoking cigarettes. I was in the land of make-believe."Comment

·Ron Lyle: "Hey man, that's the hardest I've ever been hit in my life. And George Foreman could punch, but none of them could hit like Earnie Shavers did. When he hit you, the lights went out. I can laugh about it now, but at the time,it wasn't funny."Comment

·Larry Holmes: "Earnie hit me harder than any other fighter, including Mike Tyson. He hit me and I was face down on the canvas hearing saxophonist Jimmy Tillis."Comment

I'll willingly believe my old buddy Randall Tex Cobb when he said "Earnie hits the hardest without doubt he was the only fighter that ever made me feel like quitting in a fight". " Every punch Earnie landed shook me rigid I never let him know that though"
Earnie also told me " Tex Cobb must have had concrete poured into his chin I hit him as hard as Ive knocked guys cold with & that son of a gun just laughed at me"'
If only Earnie had had the stamina to match his punching power Earnie was awesome for 6 roundsComment

All those guys beat Shavers.I'll willingly believe my old buddy Randall Tex Cobb when he said "Earnie hits the hardest without doubt he was the only fighter that ever made me feel like quitting in a fight". " Every punch Earnie landed shook me rigid I never let him know that though"

Shavers didn't knock a lot of big men out, few in fact.Comment

Thats a myth uve never heard this before, like with some of my previous comments because I keep making new content up, but basically Frazier rises up with every hook, from his legs, Foreman didnt lift him at all, Frazier did all the work , foreman just made him lose control.lets wait until he has actually fought / knocked out credible opponents first before comparing him to HOF'ers and ATG's please.

Watch every hook he rises up with them from a big low slipLast edited by AlexKid; 11-21-2019, 05:17 PM.Comment

Once Shaver started facing better opposition he was not knocking them out, if anything he lost.
But they all say he was a hell of a puncher.
I think Wilder's right hand is one of the best ones.
Foreman was so heavy handed that he pounded fighters into submission.
Tyson was so fast with those hard punches
I even liked Lewis right hand, a lethal weaponComment
