I think it's the ROCK!
He is 2nd with me, Shavers could knock down a building with his. Shavers had to have a 2000PSI punch with his right.RoccoMarciano said:I think it's the ROCK!
I would be interested in that too. All I know is that he is renowned for his punching power, just nobody has it on tape.RoccoMarciano said:It would be interesting to know for sure just how hard the Great John L. could actually hit. He had a very hard punch, according to contemporary accounts, but it would be nice to see it on film.
As far as I know the only film available is of him and Corbett clowning around a bit after he was on in years - way after he was done fighting.bill1234 said:I would be interested in that too. All I know is that he is renowned for his punching power, just nobody has it on tape.![]()

Too bad more people don't upload video to daily motion. The video quality is better and thhe video plays back smoother for me.bill1234 said:Yep, and here is that film:YouTube - John L. Sullivan
Shavers never had his measured though, and neither did Tyson. Bill Cayton wouldn't let him.tommygunn said:tyson had the hardest punch ever measured including foreman, frazier and the klit broz. he hit at 1750 psi, foreman was 1600 psi.
But the one he jabbed and the guy fell over dead.White Tyson said:Max Baer... HE KILLED TWO MEN!!!![]()
where did you get this information?.tommygunn said:tyson had the hardest punch ever measured including foreman, frazier and the klit broz. he hit at 1750 psi, foreman was 1600 psi.
Tyson? He got them with about 2 combo's in a row. The first one knocked you down, or hurt you, and the 2nd one finished you off unless you could keep away or with stand the moment.. Shavers on the other hand was 1 big punch and you were out.PrettyBoyFloyd said:I said Tyson. But it was a toss up with me between Tyson and Shavers
tommygunn said:lennox lewis should be on the poll to bill, he had a pretty devastating right hand. the punch that ko'd rahman was an absolute peach.
