    Default Name some pros that, were fast and weak punchers, and slow but heavy punchers?

    Then name some that were both fast and heavy punchers and then slow and light punchers lol.

    e.g.


    Fast and weak punches = Ali

    Slow but heavy punches = Foreman

    Fast and heavy Punches = Tyson

    Slow and weak punches = Cant think of any lol,


    Can you give some more examples? Cheers

    Slow and weak puncher would be Sven Ottke. How did he remain undefeated?

    I wouldn't call Ali's punches weak. 1960-1967 had a way with slashing fighters- his tkos didn't send guys to the canvas, but he slashed the dickens out of them, takes more than pillow punching to do that.


    & He really busted up Cleveland Williams because he stood there & didn't move back while landing. -That was Ali moving into his prime which got stopped after that fight.

    Joe Frazier round 14, was some heavy swellin' which is why Futch stopped the fight, so I thought.
    Post Ali we know never sat down on his shots.

    Cassius Clay........... Fast, but oh so weak.

    Charles 'Sonny' Liston ......... Slower than slow, but heavier than heavy.

    Clay can never be called a KO artist for sure. But man he sure could slice/stop a fighter:
    56(37KO)-5 (1KO) 60%KO ratio.

    Paulie Malinaggi
    33 (KO 7) 17% KO ratio

    Paul Spadafor
    49 (KO 19) 37% KO ratio

    Those are example of weak punchers.

    Barry Jones - fast but weak hitter.

    Matthew Hilton - slow but such heavy hands.

    Cory Spinks is another soft hitter that had a bit of speed.: won 39 (KO 11) Beat Miguel Gonzalez, Judah, Bundrage & Mayorga- in fact he held the WBC, WBA & IBF- & defended them with a 23% KO ratio.
