earnie shavers: the hardest heavyweight puncher ever?

[Master]

So many fighters have said it.

Shavers was one dimensional like all big punchers who were not great. He could hit.

Bill said top 5.

Yeah we've been through all that.

Bill must be Shavers cousin or something and Brockton his mistress with all their Earnie licking this past week!

As for the fighters...

- They all talk smack
- They all stand to GAIN from making this claim
- They all BEAT Shavers
- They were all knocked down and WASTED by other fighters worse than Shavers

They are OBVIOUSLY lying, and even then..

- You could not REMEMBER the hardest punches! I have been knocked out before, and you DON'T remember the hardest shots because you are CONCUSSED, OBVIOUSLY! It's the LIGHTER shots that hurt more often! Until later when your trying to chew your McDonalds with a mangled jaw LOL

[Max Power]

The only one who has any claim to making Shavers the hardest hitter he fought is Kenny Norton.

But again..

Foreman is the more OBVIOUS hardest hitter of that era.

And Norton's brain was in no state to judge punch power during any of his KO's.

Yet Ali said he hit harder than George.

Yet Ali was able to boast and laugh after the Shavers fight.

Yet after fighting Geroge he had to make a trip to the hospital with a broken body.

Ali was able to FIGHT Shaver properly.

Against Geroge he was covered up on the ropes and unable to even fight Geroge by conventional means until he was gassed.

Earnie Shavers

Was really, not a 'big' Heavyweight.

He fought many of his bouts under 208 lbs.

My opinion of Shavers....
