Five boxing Champs

Mike Tyson

Tyson was lethal when he combined his speed with his power. He is at his best within the first six rounds and is not the same after. He intimidated opponents with his fearsome reputation. He is known for his early knock-outs at 30 and 91 seconds. He was destructive at his prime, going in the ring like he was going on a battle, with all his pent-up energy and determination; he was a force to be reckoned with - earning him a spot at the top of the hardest hitters in boxing history.

Sonny Liston

Some people think that his chance to fight for the title was a long time coming. He was at his prime even before that, delivering fire power and early knock-outs. But people tend to remember Liston as the dismal opponent of Muhammad Ali. His uncompromising and menacing demeanor made Liston the opponent to beat. He was perhaps the most underrated hardest hitter in the boxing history.

Joe Louis

Also known as the Brown Bomber, Louis was formidable at his prime. He was not like the others who finish their opponents with one punch. He was what the boxing insiders called the great finisher; because once he gets hold of his opponent, he never let go. He also intimidates his opponents with his fearless aura and his opponents were ready to be knocked-down even before the fight, truly one of the hardest hitters in boxing history.

George Foreman

Also known as Big George in the boxing circuit, he did not pack a punch gracefully. He was clubbing left and right his opponents; delivery big, looping, forceful and bludgeoning blows. His massive punch gave him the spot to the hardest hitters in boxing history; once his opponents walk into this unstoppable force, it's the point of no return.

Rocky Marciano

Forty-nine successive wins and 43 knocked-outs earned him the right to be one of the hardest hitter in boxing history. He is known to take his time, softening up his opponents with bruising bombardment. His right hand is said to change day to night; ending the fight for his opponents. He shows great single-shot punch delivered late into the fight ending his opponent with his blockbuster right hand
