Mike Tyson was the hardest puncher ever?

[JazMerkin]

No Mike Tyson wasn't the hardest puncher ever, he might not even make it into the top 10 heavyweights P4P.

Bigger than Foreman?!?!?! George was 6'4 220 in his prime and even bigger when he won the title his second go round.

Tyson's strength was his speed and combination punching...he could hit hard but not like Foreman, nowhere close

he's in my top 10, just he's not #1

1.Foreman
2.Shavers
3.Louis
4.Frazier
5.Liston
6.Norton
7.Marciano
8.Patterson
9.Tyson
10.Tua

really not in any specific order though, just besides #1 Foreman and 9,10 are about right 2-8 can be moved around

I could more or less agree with that list, although there are a few other guys I might have in there instead of the bottom 5.

Just curious, how often do you think a new poster creates a thread about Mike Tyson being either the best HW of all time or the hardest puncher of all time?

I've been here just under 6 months, & I'm sure this is at least the 4th I've seen in that time.

Jaz having been here for over 4 yrs.

I can't tell you how many, I've lost count. Some of my favorite repeat threads.

Naz vs. _________ <---- Insert name
What if Naz....
Mike Tyson vs. __________ <---- Insert name of any all time Heavy.
What if Ali....
What if Tyson....

And depending on how long you stay here, you're sure to see a lot more. Its the typical, new member thread.
Although I generally agree with Foreman heading the crew, I'm sure with current technologies and video imaging that someone could arrive at an OBJECTIVE, RATIONAL proof of who was the hardest puncher.
However, if you took that a step further and included other weight divisions and calculated relative weight/size differentials, you would probably be in for a surprise.
