Goerge was known to have a very heavy hand. Its like Letting someone punch you with their hand and then let them smack you on the head with a brick. The latter hurts more, even if its slower due to the weight and mass of the brick. Now times that by 13, and you just got killed by Goerge Foreman.
Holyfield said Foreman was the hardest puncher he ever faced. He said the punches were slow, but your whole boby felt it even if you blocked it with your arms. And this was old Foreman.
@@nomnom9426 Old Foreman was much bigger and stronger than his younger version. With a good 30-40 pounds added to his weight. Remember also that the Holyfield that fought Foreman was still basically a cruiser, weighing barely over 200lbs. Big George had what, 50 pounds over him that night? When Evander faced Lewis or Tyson he was bigger and stronger.
@Weghweh Hwewehwhe IDK man. According to Ali, Wepner, and George Johnson, Liston hits harder than Foreman. Johnny Tocco, a trainer who worked with Tyson, Foreman, and Liston also stated that Sonny hit the hardest among the three. There is also this statement from George that Liston can push 3 heavy wheel barrels on a slope as compared to him capable of pushing only 1.
The craziest thing I've ever seen in a boxing match is George Foreman's uppercut lifting Joe Frazier's feet up off the canvas. This man was power personified. Even an older version of Foreman was terrifying. Evander Holyfield, who also fought Tyson, Bowe and Lewis, has said multiple times that Foreman hit the hardest. Big George was a beast.
Joe Louis lifted Tony Galento off of the canvas as well he did it with a short left hook and he feet was even planted when he did it. Foreman and the great Joe Louis is the only two men to lift their opponents off the canvas with their punches.

@@toddjohnson271 Liston took a dive it's still crazy people think Ali knocked him out nahh but either all respect to Ali the only guy who beat prime foreman while being out of his prime himself 💀
He was in Utica for some type of an exhibition when I was in high school in 1977. He and his whole entourage stayed at the Treadway Inn in New Hartford, NY where I worked as a busboy. He was absolutely frightening how big and powerful he was. When he sat down in the dining room to eat dinner he looked like he was sitting at the little kid's table. Absolutely massive!
To put into context, prime punchers, holyfield, morrison and Briggs were prepared to go toe2toe with bowe, tyson, ruddock etc respectively, and yet all got on there bike against a 42-48 year old version of him. Thats the fear his power put into fighters.
They were afraid that Lennox was going to hurt George that's why they took the Shannon Briggs fight away from him because they didn't want to see him get hurt on their watch. He was 48 years old and he clearly beat Briggs.
@@KeithFroehlich07Many clean shots in Lennox would put a hurting on old George. But Lennox didn't want to eat anything clean from George, would have been curtains
@@KeithFroehlich07 Would have been an interesting fight. Lewis wouldn't have gone to to toe with Foreman though, nobody would. That's the point. If you stood in front of Foreman, you got KO'd. No matter how old he was, no matter who you were. The only guys who beat him kept their distance and used their speed.
There used to be ads in magazines that said " if you want to know what if feels like to be hit by George Foreman, tape this (boxing glove photo) to the wall and run in to it.
it's absolutely insane how you can clearly see the relatively slow punch making it's way to the bag and still see how bizarrely powerful it is when it connects, this dude had the strength of a bull
The guys shoulder was visibly hurt when foreman hit the bag if the fingers got hit it wouldve felt like someone slamming an old solid steel car door down on your fingers in the middel of winter at maximum force...
lol not really, his fingers would be between two cushioned objects, the bag and his 16 oz gloves. I'm sure hes caught his fingers on multiple occasions.
What really shows you his power isn't even when you see the heavy bag buckling from the punches. It's when they scan down to show you his feet. They're close together, almost flat. To throw punches with anywhere near that kind of force, most other professional heavyweights would be in a much wider stance, twisting and lunging into the shot. Foreman had ALL of that power just in his torso and his arms. Insane.
@@quiett6191 I really wish we saw him do a 100% power shot where he would turn his whole body into the shot as fast as he could and as hard as he could, most the time he looks like he’s not even trying but still knocks them out, always confuses me and still kinda does
You're very dumb ... some people that who don't even boxe develop parkinson a fight against foreman will not will not give you parkison (all the boxer who fought in the 70s would get it ) Ali was just unlucky :) it is whole career as a boxer that maybe caused his parkinson
what would u say for freddie roach he was also unlucky come on now its the truth boxing 101 keep your hands up ali was one of the best for sure but he took too many hits specially from heavy weight division like getting hit by a truck
Imagine prime Foreman sitting in your guard raining down punches on you as your head bounces off the floor. In interviews he's always mentioned that if MMA was around in his time he would've done that instead.
@@TheHiddenNarrative He would have taken one look at the pay and turned back to boxing lmao but if we made up a scenario where both sports pay the same that would be amazing, he already was a great clinch fighter in boxing.
Hard hitters in boxing have more punching power than anyone in mma. Not saying that boxers are better but they've got more punching power and the reason is obvious.
@@elkevinski from what I've seen, also big-boned, good genes. He definitely took a dive against Ali though. There seemed to be higher powers that wanted to advance Ali's career, and keep insisting that he was the greatest ever.
@@monkeyb1820 Not only big-boned. He had a freakish reach, 84 inch reach. That's more than Foreman's reach, 78, which is crazy considering that Foreman was taller. Also has the record for the biggest hands in boxing. 15 inch size fists from what I've seen. I've seen only one who had bigger hands, and that was Andre the Giant lol, and only by 1 inch. He also must've been way stronger, since he grew up in a farm where he did heavy work since a child. Liston is one of the sport most intimidating men of any time for a reason. Going against him must've been frightening. Also I agree with you about him taking a dive. The more you look into it, the more fake that fight looks. Don't know what exactly happened in the first fight though.
@@elkevinskiI haven't watched as much of Liston--but he could well have had even better genetics than Foreman. I just watched much of Ali-Lison 1 and it was probably some kind of fix too. Ali was nowhere near the power fighter, and was mostly a glorified Tyrell Biggs at that time. Ali wasn't actually all that impressive then Liston's corner stopped it (on cuts). Just very fishy that the much stronger veteran would lose to a dancing and light-hitting 22 year old. The NOI had all kinds of ties to the CIA. We'll never know the full truth about how/why Ali was pushed to being 'the greatest', but I think something fishy was going on. Foreman never got a rematch and Foreman's water may have been drugged, and Ali wanted Foreman to have the same lousy cornerman. Objectively, Foreman was better (in spite of the loss that day).
@@monkeyb1820 why y crying bro. how can u say first one was fixed. He cheated and blinded ali but still got whooped. Ali is undefeated against power hitters. Sonny had nothing to beat fast ali. What's yr proof of drugged foreman. He always had bad gas tank. He lost to out of prime ali
The base of the bag is where all the sand settles and compact until hard, how a man is able to punch and LITERALLY carve a concave hole in a solid heavybag base is beyond me 😮🥊💯👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I don't know if this is true for older bags, but most punching bags have bags of sand and stuffed full of cloth. Hence why they can get so big and not weigh as much
punches were slow but heavy as hell. one of his opponents said Frazier's punch was like a Cadillac coming at you 100 mph. while big Georges punch was like a mack truck coming at you 50 miles an hour.
Jim Brown wrote a article in a magazine back in the fall of 1974, and it recently resurfaced on the internet. It went like Jim Brown went over to Africa to see the Rumble in the Jungle with George Foreman and Muhammad Ali. a guy came over and knocked on Jim Brown's hotel room door. Jim Brown opened up and the fella said George Foreman can't keep any sparring partners. He said I don't understand why they all just quit on him! And he said he don't have anyone to spar with at all. So Jim Brown said he have to have somebody to spar with. So he thought to himself I'm in great shape! so he told the guy let me get my shoes and I'll go down there with you and I'll spar with him. Jim Brown said they walk down all most to where Foreman was hitting the heavy bag.and but was still a half block away and he could hear this big smashing sound going BOOM,BOOM,BOOM type sound.and he asked the guy what the hell is that? And the guy said that's George Foreman hitting the heavy bag. So Jim Brown said so where is he at? And the guy said he still a half a block down sir and he's indoors inside of the cinder block building. Jim Brown said you gotta to be kidding me! He said no we still have a half a block to go. And he's inside and the door is closed. So they get down there and open the door and see Foreman hitting the heavy bag from a distance but the sound was insanely powerful like he never heard a human being hit the bag before. So Jim Brown said NO! Hell NO! I'm not getting in there to spar with him and he's gonna hit me like that. MR Brown said he could seriously hurt you with them kind of blows, i mean I would of been thinking about my health and even life! And he said he had imediately knew why all of George Foreman sparring partners had quit. He said Muhammad Ali was a good friend of his and he went over to Ali's hotel room and said man you better be careful, I mean this guy can really hit like nobody else. You taking a chance with your life. Jim Brown said Ali soaked it in. He said I don't think it's so much he was scared. but he soaked it in like he was using the info as knowledge to preparing himself for what he had to tackle. Like He knew it was something that wasn't going to be easy. But Jim Brown said he will always remember how George Foreman was hitting that heavy bag over in Africa. He said every time his mind just say Damn!
No pain for me! The sudden lack of barometric pressure caused by his fist movement would suck all the air out of my lungs and put me to sleep well before he ever hit me.
It's scary because this isn't crazy explosive power, it's just freakishly heavy hands chopping down on the bag like a 12 pound sledgehammer, you see him beating on it over and over again until the bag is literally almost completely straightened out, it doesn't matter if you're perfectly blocking it or not, hands like that will give you PTSD
he was one of those guys who could punch someone who was blocking and still hurt them badly, one of his tricks was to knock their guard down with his jab hand and launch a power punch that usually ended in a KO
Man, this is the same hands to knock down Joe Frazier repeatedly; the hands to eventually stop Ron Lyle in their notorious slug fest; same hands to deleiver a solid 1-2 combination to Michael Moorer and KO him. Makes you think what Muhammad Ali was made of when he consumed these punches and taunted Foreman in the ring when he said ''is that all you got?''...amazing!
+John Michael He didnt want take em either. Thats why he layed on the roped and tired him out, moving away from the punches. However the willpower to take even a few of these fucking shots, its Amazing. Its like getting hit by a car.
Crazy thing is big George isn't even really winding up. It appears those shots are at about 75% of his power. Imagine if he had you hurt, didn't have to worry so much about defense, and really went all out.
From what I have seen, George Foreman was the strongest and hardest hitting boxer in history. Mohammed Ali took incredible punishment in their famous fight. That is what makes Ali’s victory so incredible.
@@chadjones6313 yeah liston is never really in the actual conversation for hardest hitters, people just hold these oldschool fighters high in their nostalgia. Look at the physical difference between a 235lbs Foreman and Liston. There is no way he punched harder than George, weight classes exist for a reason
They had to pay the sparring partners top dollar for Foreman , because they would walk out. On one tape , he wasn`t allowed to punch the guy in the head.
When a guy this strong jabs at you, it looks and feels like there's a big, spring-loaded fence post hitting you in the head. Over and over. It's a real bad feeling.
I box so I definitely be hitting it hard and making it move and I’m only a featherweight but George style wouldn’t last in today’s boxing back then this was considered great bag work present day if u hit the bag like this in the gym you’ll probably get laughed at and criticized
Bro, he hit the bottom part where it's denser and harder. Average guys prob get 3-4 inches of bag movement punching there, and this dude needs to have someone behind the bag to stop it from flying around too much..... They even struggle holding it in position at times. What a beast.
Yes. He admitted right after that he was dumb for only punching and not boxing. Old George’s skill + young George’s body would be a real sight to see. Cheers
if you weren't prepeared for it and your stomach wasn't fully tensed and was just relaxed you could have serious serious problems it could even kill you if in the right spot around belly button area or in the side
Now imagine Evander Holyfield saying that older George hit him harder than anyone he ever fought. He said he asked his corner if George knocked his teeth out. And Ali said Earnie Shavers hit harder than anyone. Only person that hit harder than George was Shavers.
One punch man, no technique required. He literally sent a grown man standing behind a heavy bag flying, while he felt no impact at all. I think physics doesn't apply to Foreman.
This is how you develop power, you practice it day in, day out on the heavy bag. Not many went as hard on the bag with repetitive power punches the way Foreman did. Throw a few hundred punches like that and you're bound to get stronger over time.
0:35 it literally sounds like a horse slowly trotting. Now imagine a horse named George pummeling an opponents midsection the way he did that heavy bag. I don’t even think he used all of his strength.
In boxing Lore Ali took the most beating and punches of Foreman and survived but it's said he was literally pissing blood and sore for weeks and all those hits from that fight probably helped further his CTE.... Although if any single fighter can be blamed most for Ali it's Earnie Shavers
i had an argument with someone i know saying that the greats of back then would whoop modern heavyweights, i gave foreman as an example. Foreman would whoop 99% of heavyweights nowadays. idc if the average height has gotten a few inches taller
@@ChunkyPuffsRaichu 70s version would end both in less than 5, most don't realize how refined his boxing skills were, he used his strength perfectly and cut the ring like no one else, there simply was no escape unless they magically became Ali in the 60s, they would just have to meet him at some point and go toe to toe and then after a few exchanges George is talking to the press while Wladimir/Tyson are given smelling salts to come back to this world.
Well the 6’3 220 pound usyk just became champion. He’s the same size as foreman, ali, n Norton. Just goes to show that size doesn’t always matter with these modern heavyweights
@@TonyMontana-os7kg Little Mike Tyson would have demolished the Klistschos fast, maybe George would let them have another round. Same result in the end.
@@TonyMontana-os7kg Foreman Small ??? The Big man would show them what is the real steel hammer , Foreman had killer instinct dude , his uppercuts, body shots, scary shit . Foreman is 6'3 klitchkos are 6'4
Moorer said he was out on his feet before that. Foreman hit him with a 1-2 a few times that round and he was paralysed. Biggest mistake Moorer ever made was going toe-to-toe with Foreman instead of doing what Morrison did for the last few rounds.
Maybe he's in the top three because even Foreman said in a recent interview with Max Kellerman that Wilder threw that right hand better than he did. But one thing Foreman does better by a lot than Wilder is actually boxing and knowing where to put your feet. Wilder doesn't know that the way Big George does.
@@punodelgato9001, the only thing Wilder has on Foreman is speed. Everything else he's light-years behind Big George. I'm not trying to crap on Wilder. I'm just being objective. Cheers.
Well, he laughed but his sides were hurting. He pissed blood after the fight . Had Foreman just quit headhunting and just kept pounding on Ali's sides, Ali would have pissed blood in the ring and probably lose mobility.
Ali later admitted that that hook to the body had him hurt but the sheer heart it took for him to even get in the ring with that monster of a man is incredible
It had to hurt. Rumor had it he peed blood after the fight. Good Lord, those wallops by George to the ribs would have killed a freaking bull. But, not Ali.
I remember this footage -- taken while Foreman was in training for his fight against Ali. It is the only time I have ever seen a boxer put an indentation in a heavy bag, and move it from side to side with a 200 lb man hanging on to it. To be sure, he had his limitations, but for my money he was the hardest hitter in the history of the heavyweight division.

many of us when when first learned to punch the heavy bag, went home with a sore fist.... Now we watch George put a small crater in the bag....
@@MrInfoPhilly straight up 👍🏿😂
I love how he's crushing the bag so hard that there's a huge dent in it.

Foreman didn't have to hit the point of the chin. He knocked people out with blunt force trauma.
wkLeoTrooper a shot aimed at your guard and you could expect a world of pain
yeah he knocked people out with glancing blows a few times
Lol knockouts have nothing to do with the chin. Knock out happens from the brain sloshing around your head
Canada Cannabis uuuuggggghhhh, and where do you need to hit exactly to move around someones brain?????
anywhere on the head if you hit hard enough
George's punches = brain damage
I would agree
Or death against the average guy.
He would easily kill average guy
i got brain damage just watching this video
well that explains Ali
He was in Utica for some type of an exhibition when I was in high school in 1977. He and his whole entourage stayed at the Treadway Inn in New Hartford, NY where I worked as a busboy. He was absolutely frightening how big and powerful he was. When he sat down in the dining room to eat dinner he looked like he was sitting at the little kid's table. Absolutely massive!
LOL
I would of been slightly terrified seeing George in person lol
I feel you, I met George Chuvalo in 2005 , he looked like he could walk through a wall
@@tonygajate5780
He could ..... and did.
@@tonygajate5780 Wouldn't put it past him
To put into context, prime punchers, holyfield, morrison and Briggs were prepared to go toe2toe with bowe, tyson, ruddock etc respectively, and yet all got on there bike against a 42-48 year old version of him. Thats the fear his power put into fighters.
They were afraid that Lennox was going to hurt George that's why they took the Shannon Briggs fight away from him because they didn't want to see him get hurt on their watch.
He was 48 years old and he clearly beat Briggs.

@@KeithFroehlich07 Would have been an interesting fight. Lewis wouldn't have gone to to toe with Foreman though, nobody would. That's the point. If you stood in front of Foreman, you got KO'd.

Internal bleeding, each shot, liver, spleen. Damn son.
Yea man, just imagine Ali being hit like that
I was just thinking that.
@Captain Kirk no
@Captain Kirk I dont get your comments
Ali ate them shots most of that fight if he did not dodge them altogether...George is powerful but Ali dominated him

Those punches will cure you of anything or kill ya!!!🤒+🤜=🙂 or 🤨+🤜=☠👻
Yeah, I think I’ll take my chances with Covid. I have a higher chance of surviving that than if I were to get punched by George Foreman.
Can't have coronavirus if you're dead.
Yeah death will definitely get rid of the virus for sure. 🤔

There used to be ads in magazines that said " if you want to know what if feels like to be hit by George Foreman, tape this (boxing glove photo) to the wall and run in to it.
That was for mike tyson. I remember the ad vividly, was like in a nintendo magazine or something promoting mike Tyson's PunchOut
it's absolutely insane how you can clearly see the relatively slow punch making it's way to the bag and still see how bizarrely powerful it is when it connects, this dude had the strength of a bull
Imagine him accidentally hitting the bag holder in the fingers
😀😀😀
+Freedom Fighter lol 😄😄😄😄😄😄 lol
Base on his acuracy I'm surprised he didn't
The guys shoulder was visibly hurt when foreman hit the bag if the fingers got hit it wouldve felt like someone slamming an old solid steel car door down on your fingers in the middel of winter at maximum force...
lol not really, his fingers would be between two cushioned objects, the bag and his 16 oz gloves. I'm sure hes caught his fingers on multiple occasions.
look how he casually deforms the heavy bag lmao
What really shows you his power isn't even when you see the heavy bag buckling from the punches.
It's when they scan down to show you his feet. They're close together, almost flat.
To throw punches with anywhere near that kind of force, most other professional heavyweights would be in a much wider stance, twisting and lunging into the shot.
Foreman had ALL of that power just in his torso and his arms. Insane.
This is exactly what I was about to comment... All his punches were arm punches... His power didn't come from his feet... It was all arms..
@@mijanulhaque5384 your wrong it wasnt just arm punches, you dont know what your looking at.
Great observation mate! Indeed terrific power off a narrow stance.
I wouldn't be surprised if George was purposefully nerfing himself so he wouldn't kill anyone in the ring.
@@quiett6191 I really wish we saw him do a 100% power shot where he would turn his whole body into the shot as fast as he could and as hard as he could, most the time he looks like he’s not even trying but still knocks them out, always confuses me and still kinda does
My phone flew out of my hand when he hit the bag 😂
ive never seen a heavy bag have quit in their eyes before
Ali took them shots,shows you how tough he was damn!!!!!
Yup
well thats what caused his parkisons
+jim johnston I agree. he should have quit after that last fight with smoking joe
You're very dumb ... some people that who don't even boxe develop parkinson a fight against foreman will not will not give you parkison (all the boxer who fought in the 70s would get it ) Ali was just unlucky :) it is whole career as a boxer that maybe caused his parkinson
what would u say for freddie roach he was also unlucky come on now its the truth boxing 101 keep your hands up ali was one of the best for sure but he took too many hits specially from heavy weight division like getting hit by a truck
MMA fans these days talk about Francis Ngannou's punching power, but noone hit harder than Earnie Shavers and George Foreman
Imagine prime Foreman sitting in your guard raining down punches on you as your head bounces off the floor. In interviews he's always mentioned that if MMA was around in his time he would've done that instead.
@@TheHiddenNarrative He would have taken one look at the pay and turned back to boxing lmao but if we made up a scenario where both sports pay the same that would be amazing, he already was a great clinch fighter in boxing.
Top 1 Shavers
Top 2 Foreman
btw, Ngannou tried boxing and failed. Punching power in MMA means nothing among world class boxers.
Hard hitters in boxing have more punching power than anyone in mma. Not saying that boxers are better but they've got more punching power and the reason is obvious.
probably the most genetically blessed heavyweight I've ever seen. Huge bones, huge muscles, ridiculously strong.
Sonny Liston?
@@elkevinski from what I've seen, also big-boned, good genes. He definitely took a dive against Ali though. There seemed to be higher powers that wanted to advance Ali's career, and keep insisting that he was the greatest ever.
@@monkeyb1820 Not only big-boned. He had a freakish reach, 84 inch reach. That's more than Foreman's reach, 78, which is crazy considering that Foreman was taller. Also has the record for the biggest hands in boxing. 15 inch size fists from what I've seen. I've seen only one who had bigger hands, and that was Andre the Giant lol, and only by 1 inch.
He also must've been way stronger, since he grew up in a farm where he did heavy work since a child.
Liston is one of the sport most intimidating men of any time for a reason. Going against him must've been frightening.
Also I agree with you about him taking a dive. The more you look into it, the more fake that fight looks. Don't know what exactly happened in the first fight though.
@@elkevinskiI haven't watched as much of Liston--but he could well have had even better genetics than Foreman. I just watched much of Ali-Lison 1 and it was probably some kind of fix too. Ali was nowhere near the power fighter, and was mostly a glorified Tyrell Biggs at that time. Ali wasn't actually all that impressive then Liston's corner stopped it (on cuts). Just very fishy that the much stronger veteran would lose to a dancing and light-hitting 22 year old.
The NOI had all kinds of ties to the CIA. We'll never know the full truth about how/why Ali was pushed to being 'the greatest', but I think something fishy was going on. Foreman never got a rematch and Foreman's water may have been drugged, and Ali wanted Foreman to have the same lousy cornerman. Objectively, Foreman was better (in spite of the loss that day).
@@monkeyb1820 why y crying bro. how can u say first one was fixed. He cheated and blinded ali but still got whooped. Ali is undefeated against power hitters. Sonny had nothing to beat fast ali. What's yr proof of drugged foreman. He always had bad gas tank. He lost to out of prime ali
The base of the bag is where all the sand settles and compact until hard, how a man is able to punch and LITERALLY carve a concave hole in a solid heavybag base is beyond me 😮🥊💯👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I don't know if this is true for older bags, but most punching bags have bags of sand and stuffed full of cloth. Hence why they can get so big and not weigh as much

Jim Brown wrote a article in a magazine back in the fall of 1974, and it recently resurfaced on the internet. It went like Jim Brown went over to Africa to see the Rumble in the Jungle with George Foreman and Muhammad Ali. a guy came over and knocked on Jim Brown's hotel room door. Jim Brown opened up and the fella said George Foreman can't keep any sparring partners. He said I don't understand why they all just quit on him! And he said he don't have anyone to spar with at all. So Jim Brown said he have to have somebody to spar with. So he thought to himself I'm in great shape! so he told the guy let me get my shoes and I'll go down there with you and I'll spar with him. Jim Brown said they walk down all most to where Foreman was hitting the heavy bag.and but was still a half block away and he could hear this big smashing sound going BOOM,BOOM,BOOM type sound.and he asked the guy what the hell is that? And the guy said that's George Foreman hitting the heavy bag. So Jim Brown said so where is he at? And the guy said he still a half a block down sir and he's indoors inside of the cinder block building. Jim Brown said you gotta to be kidding me! He said no we still have a half a block to go. And he's inside and the door is closed. So they get down there and open the door and see Foreman hitting the heavy bag from a distance but the sound was insanely powerful like he never heard a human being hit the bag before. So Jim Brown said NO! Hell NO! I'm not getting in there to spar with him and he's gonna hit me like that. MR Brown said he could seriously hurt you with them kind of blows, i mean I would of been thinking about my health and even life! And he said he had imediately knew why all of George Foreman sparring partners had quit. He said Muhammad Ali was a good friend of his and he went over to Ali's hotel room and said man you better be careful, I mean this guy can really hit like nobody else. You taking a chance with your life. Jim Brown said Ali soaked it in. He said I don't think it's so much he was scared. but he soaked it in like he was using the info as knowledge to preparing himself for what he had to tackle. Like He knew it was something that wasn't going to be easy. But Jim Brown said he will always remember how George Foreman was hitting that heavy bag over in Africa. He said every time his mind just say Damn!
My god. He's not even trying and he already hits hard. I'm only 3 seconds in.
He hits way harder than Wilder
With solid boxing skills too
Hahahahahahahh Hell no he dont
Wilder has a Straight from hell

Thats true. A way more body and power. What Wilder has that he hits pretty fast and that puts you in sleep.
From grilling the heavy bag in his youth to grilling my chicken now, what a legend.

No pain for me! The sudden lack of barometric pressure caused by his fist movement would suck all the air out of my lungs and put me to sleep well before he ever hit me.
My prediction? Permanent damage
you don’t feel pain when you’re asleep
It's scary because this isn't crazy explosive power, it's just freakishly heavy hands chopping down on the bag like a 12 pound sledgehammer, you see him beating on it over and over again until the bag is literally almost completely straightened out, it doesn't matter if you're perfectly blocking it or not, hands like that will give you PTSD
the demigod requis they still hold councilling groups for all the punch bags he’d ever hit

From what I have seen, George Foreman was the strongest and hardest hitting boxer in history. Mohammed Ali took incredible punishment in their famous fight. That is what makes Ali’s victory so incredible.

They had to pay the sparring partners top dollar for Foreman , because they would walk out. On one tape , he wasn`t allowed to punch the guy in the head.
When a guy this strong jabs at you, it looks and feels like there's a big, spring-loaded fence post hitting you in the head. Over and over. It's a real bad feeling.

Foreman said he's regretfull for things he did outside of the ring. Imagine being on the wrong side of that
One punch man, no technique required. He literally sent a grown man standing behind a heavy bag flying, while he felt no impact at all. I think physics doesn't apply to Foreman.
Even the hat was like:
- F*ck this shit, I'm out!
This is how you develop power, you practice it day in, day out on the heavy bag. Not many went as hard on the bag with repetitive power punches the way Foreman did. Throw a few hundred punches like that and you're bound to get stronger over time.
Genetics also.
that sound..like bombs landing. no snap, no nothing, just heavy heavy heaviness
0:35 it literally sounds like a horse slowly trotting. Now imagine a horse named George pummeling an opponents midsection the way he did that heavy bag. I don’t even think he used all of his strength.

I’m still thinking what would a fight between George foreman and Earnie shavers look like. One of my favorite fantasy match ups
Foreman would have annihilated Shavers. He was simply more skilled in nearly every metric.
Shavers didn't have the chin to withstand big George's bombs. Big George had one of the best chins of all time
2 planets crashing in a toe to toe. Foreman had more skill though and a thumping jab that was underrated.
Would look a little like the Ron Lyle fight.
@@LMLR187 Foreman Vs Lyle is like a scene from a superhero movie 😂
His KO of Michael Moorer looked like it had no power in it at all. That’s the wonder of Big George.
That jab straight was like a shotgun. Same jab straight that made Evander clinch for 3 rounds and sent Tommy Morrison damn near out the ring.
Moorer said he was out on his feet before that. Foreman hit him with a 1-2 a few times that round and he was paralysed. Biggest mistake Moorer ever made was going toe-to-toe with Foreman instead of doing what Morrison did for the last few rounds.
it broke Moorer's mouth piece ... with a punch that is wicked slow but sooooo damn heavy ...
Damn he had unbelievable power and Ali took these shots on purpose Wow
Still Wilder thinks he is the heaviest puncher ever 😂
Ikr haha
Foreman was far more dangerous.
🤣😜
Maybe he's in the top three because even Foreman said in a recent interview with Max Kellerman that Wilder threw that right hand better than he did.
But one thing Foreman does better by a lot than Wilder is actually boxing and knowing where to put your feet. Wilder doesn't know that the way Big George does.
@@punodelgato9001, the only thing Wilder has on Foreman is speed. Everything else he's light-years behind Big George. I'm not trying to crap on Wilder. I'm just being objective. Cheers.

Yo 0:46 I'm suppressed that guys not knocked out he may actullu have brain damage the bag when forman is done it kinda looked flat
Foreman was a god damn titan. Watching him dismantle Frazier was amazing.
He makes the bag appear weightless, his punches are like those in anime or superhero movies
One of these punches to the head kills most average men. You can teach skills but you can't teach power
To think Muhammed Ali took all those punches for 8 rounds and just laughed.. Ali was the greatest
Well, he laughed but his sides were hurting.
He pissed blood after the fight .
Had Foreman just quit headhunting and just kept pounding on Ali's sides, Ali would have pissed blood in the ring and probably lose mobility.
Jack Ridge George said he hit Ali with the hardest shot he's ever thrown to the body and Ali just said, is that all you got sucka? Lol
Yeah, but Ali had the best pain tolerance of a human being on the ring ever.
He paid for it later on.
Ali later admitted that that hook to the body had him hurt but the sheer heart it took for him to even get in the ring with that monster of a man is incredible
It had to hurt. Rumor had it he peed blood after the fight. Good Lord, those wallops by George to the ribs would have killed a freaking bull. But, not Ali.
I remember this footage -- taken while Foreman was in training for his fight against Ali. It is the only time I have ever seen a boxer put an indentation in a heavy bag, and move it from side to side with a 200 lb man hanging on to it. To be sure, he had his limitations, but for my money he was the hardest hitter in the history of the heavyweight division.
