If we are just talkin functional/in fight puncing POWER. Not speed, accuaracy, etc... I would say Shavers. Foreman had alot of people talk about his brute stregnth. But the Acorn was the only guy thst I can think of that all the guys that he fought made it a point to let anyone that would listen that he hit harder than anybody that they have ever been hit by.
Holmes was actually asked to compare Tyson & Sahvers punching power (since he had fought them both). He said something like "Tyson's punch is a corvette. Shavers punch is a mac truck." All of these guys opinion & statements are enough for me to buy it.
I'd say Lewis and Foreman both punched harder. I'd also make a case for Wlad. He seems to have bricks in his gloves.
actually t rex sanders said tyson punches like he has bricks in his gloves . sanders said tyson was a much harder puncher than wlad.Quote:

The Las Vegas shows Tyson was doing a while ago were with Sanders. The exhibition matches and sparring sessions open to the public, remember???Quote:

good post Lyle Cool click . I agree with your assessment. Tyson at his best, utilized his leverage, he knew how to use his feet and legs to generate devastating power. there was a period in time where he would have been hell for anyone in history to deal with.Quote:
