As for Holmes, did he say something before or after he was sapped by Tyson?

And why all the hostility? I thought this was a board for expressing boxing opinions. If you are into insults. enjoy yourself, but that's not my thing, mate.

And remember, this is about one-punch power; about knocking someone out cleanly like Hearns did with Duran, Cuevas and Shuler. Hell, Olover McCall has more one-punch power than the Acorn. Check out how mnay Heavyweight Champions he took out.

I don't deny Shaver's power; I just believe it was overrated.
First off i have not once been hostile to you i have just put my point across i didn't think any of my comments were hostile maybe its the way i express myself but trust me i wern't being hostile........

Muhammad Ali easily beat Charlie Powell i don't know where you got your information from but both Muhammad Ali and Larry Holmes have both stated many times that Earnie Shavers was the hardest puncher they ever fought most fans who follow the sport know this and yes Larry Holmes did say that after Mike Tyson fight.......

Earnie Shavers stopped Ken Norton, Jimmy Young, Jimmy Ellis, Roy Williams, all very good fighters and better than anyone Oliver McCall has stopped except Lennox Lewis........

Earnie Shavers when he fought for the title two times fought two of the most skilled and arguably two of toughest Heavyweight champions in history did you see the punch he decked Larry Holmes with ? Larry Holmes hit the canvas with a thump the punch was that hard......

And i would love to know how you come to the conclusion that Oliver McCall hits harder than Earnie Shavers because quite frankly i find that an absurd comment no offense but im just telling you straight up and name me the Heavyweights Oliver McCall stopped except Lennox Lewis who are any better than the Heavyweights i mentioned ?
