Hardest Puncher Today and Historically

[Dark Lord Al]

Power is the last thing that leaves you.

Foreman still had power at 43.

yes so did the old version of tyson who lost to danny williams , sharpness and snap make u more powerful also , u lose that with age.

Good point but Tyson blew out his knee in round 1.

Foreman was just an arm puncher and used brute power ... he didn't rely on speed and technique like Tyson.

Danny Williams will probably tell you that he was the hardest puncher he ever fought. In fact he does:

Danny Williams: “Because this is a fight I’ve been asking for for years. I’ve been boxing at British level for many years, fighting C class opponents. I’ve always wanted to fight the top Americans. And I had the opportunity against Mike Tyson. And I said I’m going to take it with both hands. In my mind, you had to kill me to beat me. ‘Cause I was going out, I was going to leave everything in the ring.”

BoxingInsider.com: So you’ve been waiting years and years for this chance?

Danny Williams: “Yeah, definitely. You could see it in there. Tyson was really giving it to me for the first three rounds. But I wouldn’t give up, I’m there to win.”

BoxingInsider.com: Were those the hardest punches you ever took?

Danny Williams: “OH EASY, BY FAR! He was really sinking them in. Really, really a powerful guy. It’s amazing a guy of that size, that stature, could throw such powerful punches.”

you will as find that fighters tell u the guy they beat hit the hardest , or was the fastest , or was the best , for the reason - they beat them , Vitali used williams as a chopping block and we all saw what his power did, it blew him away with ease , so are we concluding Vitali blew him away with softer punches ? .

Joe Louis was, far and away, the best puncher ever, in my opinion. Danny Romero was also a great puncher, great technique, just couldn't hit Tapia (and a few others)
